CALIFORNIA KING BED, BY RIHANNA
LYRICS IN ENGLISH
Chest to chest, nose to nose
Palm to palm, we were always just that close
Wrist to wrist, toe to toe
Lips that felt just like the inside of a rose
So how come when I reach out my finger
It feels like more than distance between us?
In this California king bed
We're ten thousand miles apart
I've been California wishing on these stars
For your heart on me, my California king
Eye to eye, cheek to cheek
Side by side, you were sleeping next to me
Arm in arm, dusk to dawn with the curtains drawn
And a little last night on these sheets
So how come when I reach out my fingers
It seems like more than distance between us?
In this California king bedWe're ten thousand miles apart
I've been California wishing on these stars
For your heart on me, my California king
Just when I felt like giving up on us
You turned around and gave me one last touch
That made everything feel better
And even then my eyes got wetter
So confused wanna ask you if you love me
But I don't wanna seem so weak
Maybe I've been California dreaming
In this California king bed
We're ten thousand miles apart
I've been California wishing on these stars
For your heart on me, my California king
My California king
My California king
In this California king bed
We're ten thousand miles apart
I've been California wishing on these stars
For your heart on me, my California king
LYRICS IN SPANISH
Pecho con pecho, nariz con nariz
Palma con palma, nosotros siempre estuvimos así de cercaÇ
Muñeca con muñeca, pie con pie
Labios que se sentían como el interior de una rosa
¿Entonces cómo es que cuando extiendo mis dedos siento
Como si hubiese algo más que distancia entre nosotros?
En esta gran cama de California
Estamos a 10,000 millas de distancia
He estado pidiéndole a las estrellas, al estilo de California
Para que tu corazón sea para mi, mi rey de California
Ojo con ojo, mejilla con mejilla
Lado a lado, tú dormías junto a mí
Brazo con brazo, desde el crepúsculo hasta el amanecer
Con las cortinas cerradas y un poquito de anoche en estas sábanas
¿Entonces cómo es que cuando extiendo mis dedos siento
Como si hubiese algo más que distancia entre nosotros?
En esta gran cama de California
Estamos a 10,000 millas de distancia
He estado pidiéndole a las estrellas, al estilo de California
Para que tu corazón sea para mi, mi rey de California
Justo cuando sentía que renunciaría a nosotros
Tú te giraste y me diste una última caricia
Que me hizo sentir que todo estaba mejor
Y aún entonces, mis ojos se humedecieron más
Estoy muy confundida, quiero preguntarte si me amas
Pero no quiero parecer tan débil
Tal vez he estado soñando al estilo de California
En esta gran cama de California
Estamos a 10,000 millas de distancia
He estado pidiéndole a las estrellas, al estilo de California
Para que tu corazón sea para mi, mi rey de California
Mi rey de California
In this song, I don't really know what kind of love is. The song is about a girl who remembers her nights in California with a boy, when they were loving each other. She knows that his love wasn't pure, I mean, it was like fake love. She felt like they're not perfect for each other.
I don't know exactly why I feel so identified with this song. When I was little I loved this song but I didn't understand what the song was saying. This summer I listened to this song again and I felt so identified with it because I had lived a experience that it more or less fits with the song. And that's why I have chosen this song.
