Lyrics

Español

Hoy, recién, recién, vuelvo otra vez a tu lado con mi vida escondiendo los fracasos, ocultando las heridas. Y hoy al encontrar la protección de tus manos tan serenas, recién siento que me apena saber que te hice mal. Tenía menos años y el corazón imprudente por calles del engaño rodó, rodó torpemente. Me amabas, tanto y tanto, que me cansó tu tristeza y por no escuchar tu llanto preferí no verte más. Hoy, recién, recién, miro las cosas sin sombras ni mentiras y comprendo cuanto enseñan las lecciones de la vida. Hoy, al retornar, pensé encontrar el reproche de tu olvido y tan solo halle el castigo de todo tu perdón.

English · machine translation

Today, just now, just now, I come back to your side again with my life hiding the failures, hiding the wounds. And today when I find the protection of your serene hands I just feel that it grieves me to know that I did you wrong. I was younger and my heart reckless through streets of deceit rolled, rolled clumsily. You loved me, so much and so much that I grew tired of your sadness and not to hear you cry I preferred not to see you anymore. Today, just now, just now, I look at things without shadows or lies and I understand how much life's lessons the lessons of life. Today, upon returning, I thought I would find the reproach of your oblivion and I only found the punishment of all your forgiveness.

1 more dance names this song but not which version, so no share counts it. “No match yet” means no filmed dance is tied to that version so far, not that nobody dances it. Dances whose music we have not identified are left out.
