Lyrics

Español

Ella vino una tarde y era triste fantasma de silencio y de canción, llegaba desde un mundo que no existe. Vacío de esperanza el corazón. Era nube, sin rumbo ni destino, tenía la ternura del adiós. Mi paso la siguió por cien caminos y un día mi fatiga la alcanzó. Ella, piel de sombra, voz ausente. Ella, en mis brazos se durmió. Juntos, sin saberlo torpemente, aprendimos duramente las verdades del amor. Ella, floreció bajo la luna. Ella, renació para mi afán. Juntos, sin angustias, sin reproche, sin pasado, noche a noche, aprendimos a soñar. Sus palabras que estaban ateridas. Entonces se encendieron de emoción. Con fuego de mi amor volvió a la vida, la que era sólo el eco de un adiós. Ella vino a mi mano en el invierno, vacío de esperanza el corazón. Hoy vive entre mis sueños y es eterno su sueño de mujer y de canción.

English · machine translation

She came one afternoon and was sad ghost of silence and song, she came from a world that does not exist. Her heart was empty of hope. She was a cloud, without direction or destination, she had the tenderness of goodbye. My step followed her along a hundred paths and one day my fatigue caught up with her. She, skin of shadow, absent voice. She, in my arms, fell asleep. Together, without knowing it clumsily we learned the hard way the truths of love. She, blossomed under the moon. She, reborn for my eagerness. Together, without anguish, without reproach, without past, night by night, we learned to dream. Her words, which were cold. Then they were ignited with emotion. With fire of my love she came back to life, which was only the echo of a goodbye. She came to my hand in the winter, empty of hope in my heart. Today she lives among my dreams and is eternal her dream of woman and song.
