Otro día más en el paraíso

She calls out to the man on the street
"Sir, can you help me?
It's cold and I've nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?"

He walks on, doesn't look back
He pretends he can't hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there

Oh think twice, it's another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, it's just another day for you,
You and me in paradise

She calls out to the man on the street
He can see she's been crying
She's got blisters on the soles of her feet
She can't walk but she's trying

Oh think twice...

Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say

You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that she's been there
Probably been moved on from every place
'Cos she didn't fit in there

Oh think twice...

Another Day In Paradise (Phil Collins)---

No tiene que ver con lo que realmente dice la letra en inglés (los primeros años que la oí no sabía qué decía, aparte de 'Another Day in Paradise'). Para mí esta es una canción preciosa que habla sobre el paraíso que es el mundo en el que vivimos, sobre lo bonito que es vivir. Algunas personas hacen que este mundo sea un paraíso. Cuando se van, sabemos que allá donde anden también lograrán hacer un lugar paradisíaco. Va por ti, genio
