Lyrics

Español

Todo mi amor Está en secretos pensamientos, En escondidos sentimientos, Nostálgico y soñador... Novia ideal, Hay un dolor Que me encadena, Y frente a tu pudor, Mi fiebre pasional No es más Que una adoración. Amando en silencio... Callando mi ruego, Ahogando este fuego Cobarde, quizás. Conservo el encanto De un sueño hechicero, Por eso no quiero Saber la verdad. Amando en silencio... Pagando mi error, Sintiendo el horror De quebrar este sueño, Ya es vano el empeño De ocultar esta mentira.

English · machine translation

All my love Is in secret thoughts, In hidden feelings, Nostalgic and dreamy... Ideal bride, There's a pain That chains me, And in the face of your modesty, My fever of passion Is nothing more Than adoration. Loving in silence... Silencing my plea, Drowning this fire Cowardly, perhaps. I keep the charm Of a bewitching dream, That's why I don't want To know the truth. Loving in silence... Paying for my mistake, Feeling the horror Of breaking this dream, It's already vain to try To hide this lie.
