Text

Nada tienen de especial
Dos mujeres que se dan la mano
El matiz viene después
Cuando lo hacen por debajo del mantel

Luego a solas sin nada que perder
Tras las manos el resto de la piel
Un amor por ocultar
Aunque en cueros no hay dónde esconderlo
Lo disfrazan de amistad
Cuando sale a pasear por la ciudad

Una opina que aquello no está bien
La otra opina que ¿qué se le va a hacer?
Y lo que opinen los demás está de más

Quién detiene palomas al vuelo
Volando a ras de suelo
Mujer contra mujer

No estoy yo por la labor
De tirarles la primera piedra
Si equivoco la ocasión
Y las hallo labio a labio en el salón
Ni siquiera me atrevería a toser
Si no gusto ya sé lo que hay qué hacer
Que con mis piedras hacen ellas su pared

Translation

Nothing special here to see:
Just two women holding hands together.
The intention is so clear
When they hold hands underneath the table's end

Then together, with nothing left to hide,
After hands comes the rest of all the sights.

All their love's in open air
Try'n to fake it, but they just can't hide it.

So they say that they're just friends
When they walk together through the city air.

Then one comments that it's a bit obscene.
Then, one comments, "We'll have to wait and see…"

And what the comment doesn't matter anyway.
Who can keep turtledoves from their flyin'? And though at risk of fallin'
Two women join as one.

I'm not here to judge a soul.
I won't throw stones t'ward anybody.
If I stumble down a hall
Where they're kissing, lips to lips, just making love,
I'd stay quiet. Not even dare to cough.
It's their life. and if I don't like it, tough.

With all the stones that they collect they'll build a wall!
Who can keep turtledoves from their flyin'?
And though at risk of fallin':
Two women join as one.
