Cuánto Falta (English Translation) Lyrics

[Chorus]
I still remember the tone of that sky, from that summer trip
With the sun half-setting and you driving by my side
And how long until we arrive?
For the flowers to come out through the winter cold (Hey)
And I still remember the shine of the sand, I didn’t know the pain yet
When there were still five of us at the table instead of four
And how long until you can see it?
So you can see my good side before you get old

[Verse 1]
With you I learned what freedom was
I’m just trying to start over
I know I can’t regain my innocence
But at least I didn’t lose my identity
You always trusted me, I didn’t so much
You always suffered for me, I didn’t so much
All this time I was a madman without vertigo
And I suffered the consequences of reaching so high
Today I’m looking to land
To reconnect with my city
For everything to go back to normal
And to leave the door open without fear
So that the cool sea breeze can come in
A sky painted violet
Under which you and I used to talk about life, and

[Chorus]
I still remember the hue of that sky, from that summer trip
With the sun half-setting and you driving by my side
And how long until we arrive? For the flowers to come out through the cold of winter (Hey)
And I still remember the shine of the sand, I didn’t know sorrow yet
When there were still five of us at the table instead of four
And how long until you can see it?
So you can see my good side before you get old

[Verse 2]
I want to fly airplanes through the air again
With my hand, stick out the window
To the orange color of the sunsets
And to the salty smell of the bay
I’d like to wait for you at the door again
For you to return from your routine
For you to teach me how to put things into perspective again
When life’s problems appear
Your hands, always covered in paint
Now they’re accompanied by wrinkles
And your pure blue eyes
Keep telling me that nothing should stop you
A free chair at the table
In case anyone joins us for dinner
I’m proud of growing up in this neighborhood
And of the family name I inherited

[Interlude]
You’ve managed to get out of every situation gracefully
And in some ways, you’ve been a survivor after all, haven’t you? I thought you were going to do the same thing we’ve all done.
A degree, studying at a university, like your brother did, like your sister did.
And we always thought you were going to do the same thing: you were going to get your degree and make a living from your craft.
But no, no, it was a surprise to learn that you had the soul of a poet.
You’ve always written things, and that’s important.
Translating them into music seems to be something you’re much better at than studying.
It was a surprise, of course, um.
Knowing that you could make a living from your art, and that’s truly a relief.
In gratitude to all of us who love music.
And who believe that music is one of humanity’s greatest inventions.
What would it be? What would the world be without music?

[Coro]
The chorus sets the nostalgic tone of the song, as Delaossa recalls a summer road trip, a metaphor for the passage of time and life’s journey. The fading sunlight and the presence of a loved one at the wheel represent a cherished moment of connection. He expresses impatience, asking how much longer it will take to reach the next phase—whether it be the rebirth of spring after winter or the ability to show his true self before time runs out. The mention of a missing seat at the table highlights the pain of loss, reinforcing the theme of time’s irreversible nature and the longing for those who are no longer present.

[Verso 1]
Delaossa reflects on the lessons of freedom he learned from a significant person in his life. While he acknowledges that he can never fully regain his childhood innocence, he takes solace in having preserved his identity. The contrast between their unwavering faith in him and his own self-doubt underscores his internal struggles. He admits to having lived recklessly, facing the consequences of success and the toll it has taken. Now, he yearns for stability, seeking to reconnect with his roots and recapture the simplicity of the past. The verse paints a peaceful scene of warm sea breezes and twilight conversations, reinforcing his desire to return to a time when life felt less complicated.

The repetition of the chorus deepens the emotional weight of his reflections. The imagery of past summers, golden skies, and shifting seasons serves as a reminder of both cherished memories and the inevitable changes that life brings. His plea to be seen for who he truly is before time runs out suggests an urgency to be understood and appreciated before it’s too late.

[Verso 2]
In this verse, Delaossa longs to relive carefree childhood moments—sticking his hand out of a car window, watching the sunset, and breathing in the salty air of his hometown. He expresses a deep desire to return to the comfort of waiting for a loved one at home, seeking guidance when life presents challenges. The imagery of hands once covered in paint now marked by age signifies the passage of time and the wisdom gained along the way. Despite the changes, the same eyes that once reassured him continue to do so. The mention of an empty chair at the table offers a bittersweet sense of hope, as it remains open for someone new or as a tribute to those who have left. Delaossa takes pride in his heritage, honoring the family name he carries and the roots that shaped him.
