The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Petroleros" by Revolver.
Lyrics
Él tenía tanto miedo que lo que más le asustaba
Es que ella oliera su espanto resbalando por la almohada
Y el corazón le latía como el motor viejo y roto
De un enorme petrolero navegando a plena carga
Volverán a morder la soledad
Como un barco a tumba abierta navegando en alta mar
Volverá el silencio a planear
Como un barco navegando en alta mar
Mientras su fuego escaldaba el vientre liso del cielo
Un campo lleno de minas se le pintaba en el alma
Y las huellas de aquel hombre eran tumbas de zapatos
Estelas de petroleros navegando a plena carga
Volverán a morder la soledad
Como un barco a tumba abierta navegando en alta mar
Volverá el silencio a planear
Como un barco navegando en alta mar
Y ella susurró en su oído que dormía en el tejado
Porque así veía la vida explotar
Hasta huir del laberinto hasta cortar la alambrada
Libre como un petrolero navegando a plena carga
Volverán a morder la soledad
Como un barco a tumba abierta navegando en alta mar
Volverá el silencio a planear
Como un barco navegando en alta mar
Como un barco navegando en alta mar
Como un barco navegando en alta mar
Lyrics translation
He was so afraid that what scared him most
Is that she smelled her fright sliding down the pillow
And his heart beat like the broken old engine
Of a huge tanker sailing at full load
They'll bite the loneliness again
Like an open tomb ship sailing on the high seas
Silence will return to planning
Like a ship sailing on the high seas
As his fire scalded the smooth belly of heaven
A field full of Mines was painted in his soul
And the footprints of that man were shoe tombs
Stelas of tankers sailing at full load
They'll bite the loneliness again
Like an open tomb ship sailing on the high seas
Silence will return to planning
Like a ship sailing on the high seas
And she whispered in her ear that she was sleeping on the roof
Because that's how I saw life explode
To escape the maze to cut the wire
Free as a tanker sailing at full load
They'll bite the loneliness again
Like an open tomb ship sailing on the high seas
Silence will return to planning
Like a ship sailing on the high seas
Like a ship sailing on the high seas
Like a ship sailing on the high seas
