Lyrics

Español

Yo quise tanto, pero tanto Que es un llanto, recordar... ¡Qué triste es recordar! Volver a vernos era un sueño ¡Y no vendrás, yo sé que no vendrás! Yo sé que todo, pero todo De este modo terminó. ¡Si vieras cómo estoy! Qué sólo, qué triste, Qué cambio cruel, de ayer a hoy. Volver a vernos y después Hablar, hablar, de lo pasado. Volver a vernos y después Morir, morir, ¡Pero a tu lado! Yo sé que vos no sabés Que estoy así, con este amor, Y este ayer que vive en mí. Yo sé que vos no sabés Que entre los dos, Ronda fatal otro adiós. Hoy como nunca, pero nunca Llora trunca su ilusión, Mi pobre corazón... Volver a vernos era un sueño ¡Que me dejó! Estoy llorando, recordando Y apurando mi dolor... ¿Qué has hecho de mi pobre amor? Te busco, te nombro Porque no sé vivir sin vos.

English · machine translation

I loved so much, but so much That it's a weeping, to remember.... How sad it is to remember! To see us again was a dream And you won't come, I know you won't come! I know that everything, but everything It ended this way. If you could see how I am! How lonely, how sad, What a cruel change, from yesterday to today. To see each other again and then Talk, talk, about the past. To see each other again and then To die, to die, but by your side! I know that you don't know That I am like this, with this love, And this yesterday that lives in me. I know that you don't know That between the two of us, There's another fatal goodbye. Today as never, but never Crying, your illusion is cut short, My poor heart... To meet again was a dream That he left me! I'm crying, remembering And hurrying my pain... What have you made of my poor love? I look for you, I name you Because I don't know how to live without you.
