There aren’t many Bon Jovi songs I don’t know, but I happened upon this a few minutes ago while listening to my entire digital music catalog while I do some writing. I rarely do that; music can be distracting when I’m typing racing thoughts and ideas.
This one takes me back to certain songs of theirs which probably saved my life at times. I remember when I first starting listening to Bon Jovi and how the songs all seemed to speak to me and my life. There are a few I can no longer listen to for deeply personal reasons.
Are you a Bon Jovi fan? If so, what’s your favorite song?
Ayer los dos soñábamos con un mundo perfecto Ayer a nuestros labios les sobraban las palabras Porque en los ojos nos espiábamos el alma Y la verdad no vacilaba en tu mirada
Ayer nos prometimos conquistar el mundo entero Ayer tú me juraste que este amor seria eterno Por que una vez equivocarse es suficiente Para aprender lo que es amar sinceramente
Qué Hiciste? Hoy destruiste con tu orgullo la esperanza Hoy empañaste con tu furia mi mirada Borraste toda nuestra historia con tu rabia Y confundiste tanto amor que te entregaba Como permiso para así romperme el alma
Qué Hiciste? Nos obligaste a destruir las madrugadas Y nuestras noches las ahogaron tus palabras Mis ilusiones acabaron con tus falsas Se te olvido que era el amor lo que importaba Y con tus manos derrumbaste nuestra casa
Mañana que amanezca un día nuevo en mi universo Mañana no veré tu nombre escrito entre mis versos No escuchare palabras de arrepentimiento Ignorare sin pena tu remordimiento
English:
Yesterday we both dreamed of a perfect world Yesterday our lips had no words Because in the eyes we spied the soul And the truth did not waver in your gaze
Yesterday we promised to conquer the whole world Yesterday you swore to me that this love would be eternal Because once being wrong is enough To learn what it is to love sincerely
What did you do? Today you destroyed hope with your pride Today you blurred my gaze with your fury You erased our entire history with your rage And you confused so much love that I gave you As permission to break my soul
What did you do? You forced us to destroy the dawn And our nights were drowned by your words My illusions ended your false ones You forgot that it was love that mattered And with your hands you broke down our house
Tomorrow a new day dawns in my universe Tomorrow I will not see your name written between my verses I won’t hear words of regret I will shamelessly ignore your remorse
