I don’t wanna miss a thing

Pensei moitas veces na letra desta canción cando, mentres buscaba o camiño que me trouxera ata Oxford, viñan mal dadas. Cando mandabas currículos e currículos e ninguén te chamaba. Ou cando te chamaban un bo feixe de recruiters no día e varios, intentando aproveitarse de ti, che dicían que ti non valías os cartos que pedías, que lle quitaras case a metade, porque tiñas pouca experiencia e nunca estiveras no Reino Unido e que... Cando terminabas ás tantas da madrugada de mirar os vinte e tantos correos que ese día che chegaran, cada un deles con cen traballos relacionados coas palabras clave que ti puxeras, e te dabas de conta de que en ningunha desas ofertas que ese día chegaran ti encaixabas realmente e estabas canso e ao día seguinte tiñas que ir a traballar. Cando pensabas en toda a xente á que ías a deixar de ver tódolos días. Xente á que queres e que te facía erguerte tódolos días cun sorriso e ir feliz e contento a pasar nove horas diarias (ou máis) con eles. Cando lembrabas a eses amigos que son coma os radares dos mosos, que están pero non se ven, e que agora estarían se cadra un chisco máis agochados. Teus pais, teus irmáns...

Cando o camiño aínda estaba por facer, eu non tiña aínda mapa, e todo iso me viña a cabeza, lembraba esta letra e todo o que para nós significa e pensaba: “Ei, de ela... de ela non me quero perder nin unha cousa”

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
Far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Well, every moment spent with you
Is a moment I treasure

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Lying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes and thank God we're together
And I just wanna stay with you
In this moment forever, forever and ever

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna miss one smile
I don't wanna miss one kiss
Well, I just wanna be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time

Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
'Cause I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I don't wanna close my eyes
I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you, babe
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Don't wanna close my eyes
Don't wanna fall asleep, yeah
I don't wanna miss a thing
