steve was dead

it's 12 o'clock and i'm picking up a phone call
dan said, is steve there?
cause no one else can find him
he said he'd heard that steve was in a car crash
the word was out that steve
was dead in a car crash; dead in a car crash
steve was dead but it was only for a moment

i heard it all
that night i heard it all
it was infectious
but no one really knew
through the grapevine
we were victims of a rumor
and all along i knew it wasn't true


next day at 8am
i get another phone call
this time it's steve
and he's laughing at us all
he thought at first that everyone was joking
until he heard the messages that we were leaving
that we were leaving
steve was dead but it was only for a moment

son las doce de la noche y estoy tomando una llamada
dan dijo, esta esteve ahi?
porque nadie puede encontrarlo
el dijo que escucho que estaba en un choque de carros
se habia esparcido el rumor de que
steve murio en un accidente de auto,
steve murio solo por un momento

lo escuche todo
esa noche lo escuché todo
fue infeccioso
pero nadie sabia realmente
a través del vino
y junto con el yo sabia que era verdad

al siguiente dia a las 8 de la mañana
en otra llamada de telefono
esta vez era steve
y solo se reia de todos
primero penso que todos bromeaban
hasta que escucho los mensajes que le dejamos
que estabamos dejandole
steve murio pero solo por un momento
