Tori Amos Digital Ghost

It started as a joke
Just one of my larks to see
if somehow I could reach you so

I swam into your shores
through an open window
Only to find you all alone

Curled up with machines
now it seems you're slipping
out of the land of the living

Just take a closer look
Take a closer look
At what it is that's really haunting you

I have to trust you'll know
this digital ghost
But I fear there's only so much time
'cause the you I knew is fading away

Hands lay them on my keys
Let me play you again
I am not immune to your net

Find me there in it
I won't go even if in
your heart only beats ones and O's

Switch you on my friend
Pull you from that rip current
But only you can fight against this

Take a closer look
Just take a closer look
At what it is that's really haunting you

I have to trust you'll know
this digital ghost
But I fear there's only so much time
'cause the you I knew is fading away

fading
fading
away

Digital Ghost / Fantasma Digital



It started as a joke / Comenzó como una broma
Just one of my larks to see / como una de mis bromas para ver
if somehow I could reach you so / si podía alcanzarte de alguna manera

I swam into your shores / nadé hacia tus playas
through an open window / por una ventana abierta
Only to find you all alone / para encontrarte completamente solo

Curled up with machines / acurrucado con máquinas
now it seems you’re slipping / ahora parece que te estás yendo
out of the land of the living / de la tierra y de los vivos

Just take a closer look / nomás mira de cerca
Take a closer look / mira de cerca
At what it is that’s really haunting you / lo que realmente te atormenta

I have to trust you’ll know / Tendré que confiar en que conocerás
this digital ghost / a este fantasma digital
But I fear there’s only so much time / Pero me temo que hay poco tiempo
‘cause the you I knew is fading away / porque el "tú" que conocí está desapareciendo

Hands lay them on my keys / manos, recargalas en mis teclas
Let me play you again / déjame tocarte de nuevo
I am not immune to your net / no soy inmune a tu red

Find me there in it / encuentrame en ella
I won’t go even if / no iré aún si
in your heart only beats ones and O’s / en tu corazón nomás laten ceros y unos

Switch you on my friend / enciéndete mi amigo
Pull you from that rip current / apártate de esa condición
But only you can fight against this and / Pero sólo tú puedes luchar contra esto

Take a closer look / mira de cerca
Just take a closer look / nomás mira de cerca
At what it is that’s really haunting you / lo que realmente te atormenta

I have to trust you’ll know / Tendré que confiar en que conocerás
this digital ghost / a este fantasma digital
But I fear there’s only so much time / Pero me temo que hay poco tiempo
‘cause the you I knew is fading away / porque el "tú" que conocí está desapareciendo

fading, fading, away / desapareciendo, desapareciendo.
