[English] Cuarteto de Nos - Cómo pasa el tiempo (How time passes by)

Hi. Song: A cool videoclip of the song: Image: #query=reloj antiguo&position=7 Translation: They say that time and oblivescence are twins That time is gold. And I don’t think about misspending money So before I go to sleep, I want to affirm today That this was one day more and not a day less Time only heals what doesn’t matter anymore It’s like a god that does not forgive sins I cant make it obey, rush or stop I only I want to be able to take advantage of it And use it, like it always used me Without regretting that I let it slide Because the tomorrow of yesterday is today I go along contemplating how time passes by At the same time, quickly and slowly A mix of duality and cynicism I look at the clock and it tells me “Right now” I know, not even a second is gonna give me back Which is why today I don’t want to lose time on losing my bearings If I get distracted and don’t catch it It flew, it flew, it flew, it flew It’s in charge of ruining and destroying everything It doesn’t remind us who we were but who we are And when the turn comes to face it, it can’t be battled against That I learned, from Saturn and Kronos It’s worth more the one that leaves a mark than the one that lasts longer And something that perdures can be overwhelming The one that dared to say that time heals everything Surely didn’t use or had a clock I’m another anonymous on it´s eternity That’s why my synonym of later is now If there’s something that exasperates me is to wait I go along contemplating how time passes by At the same time, quickly and slowly A mix of duality and cynicism I look at the clock and it tells me “Right now” I know, not even a second is gonna give me back Wich is why today I don’t want to lose time on losing my bearings If I get distracted and don’t catch it It flew, it flew, it flew, it flew We blame time of every fault Debating on an endless gathering We say we want to be immortals While we don’t know what to do on a rainy day I don’t want to use it as an excuse Whenever I couldn’t achieve something I wasn’t the one that wanted to lose time It was time who lost me I can’t waste it Nor think about hiding from it Though you want to kill the rooster The sunrise won’t stop I go along contemplating how time passes by At the same time, quickly and slowly A mix of duality and cynicism I look at the clock and it tells me “Right now” I know, not even a second is gonna give me back Wich is why today I don’t want to lose time on losing my bearings If I get distracted and don’t catch it It flew, it flew, it flew, it flew - I’ll be translating more songs other than Cuarteto de Nos by the way :) Thank you!
