Pretenders – “Don´t get me wrong”. LYRICS Don't get me wrong, if I'm looking kind of dazzled; I see neon lights, whenever you walk by. Don't get me wrong, if you say hello and I take a ride, upon a sea where the mystic moon is playing havoc with the tide. don't get me wrong. Don't get me wrong, if I'm acting so distracted; I'm thinking about the fireworks, that go off when you smile. Don't get me wrong, if I split like light refracted, I'm only off to wander across a moonlit mile. Once in a while, two people meet seemingly for no reason they just pass on the street. suddenly thunder showers everywhere who can explain the thunder and rain but there's something in the air. Don't get me wrong, if I come and go like fashion. I might be great tomorrow but hopeless yesterday. Don't get me wrong, if I fall in the mode of passion it might be unbelievable. but let's not stay so long, it might just be fantastic don't get me wrong. Pretenders – “No me malinterpretes”. TRANSLATION No me malinterpretes, si me veo algo deslumbrada; veo luces de neón, cada vez que tú pasas (caminas por) No me malinterpretes, si me dices hola y yo me voy de paseo, sobre un mar donde la luna mística está haciendo estragos con la marea. no me malinterpretes. No me malinterprete, si actúo tan distraída; Estoy pensando en los fuegos artificiales, que estallan cuando sonríes. No me malinterpreten, si me disperso como la luz refractada, sólo me alejé para vagara través de una milla de luna. De vez en cuando, dos personas se encuentran aparentemente sin razón simplemente pasan en la calle. de repente truena, llueve por todas partes quien puede explicar el trueno y la lluvia pero hay algo en el aire. No me malinterpretes, si voy y vengo como la moda. podría ser genial mañana pero ayer sin esperanza. No me malinterpretes, si caigo en la moda de la pasión podría ser increíble. pero no vamos a permanecer tanto tiempo, podría ser simplemente fantástico no me malinterpretes.
