Lyrics
Español
Yo sé que vivo arrinconado Vencido, triste y cambiado... Pero la culpa no es tuya No temas ni me huyas ¡Acércate a mi lado! Ya ves, te miro sin encono Y ahogando un llanto... perdono No sé qué siento por vos: ¿Será ternura y amor o sólo compasión? Compasión... Por la que nunca comprendió mi amor. Compasión... Por la que busca mi perdón. Yo que también alzo mi cruz Perdono cual Jesús A Magdalena... Compasión... Por la que nunca comprendió mi amor. Compasión... Por la que un día se extravió. Ya te dirá mi corazón Si es esto compasión O restos de un amor. Yo sé muy bien por qué has venido Cruzando sombras de olvido: Te fue golpeando la vida Y has vuelto arrepentida Buscando lo perdido. Para tus penas y fracasos Abierto tengo mis brazos. ¡Cómo los voy a negar! Si no te pude olvidar En horas de pesar.

I know that I live in a corner Defeated, sad and changed... But the fault is not yours Don't be afraid or run away from me Come to my side! You see, I look at you without bitterness And choking back a cry... I forgive I don't know what I feel for you: Is it tenderness and love or only compassion? Compassion... For the one who never understood my love. Compassion... For the one who seeks my forgiveness. I who also lift up my cross Forgive as Jesus did To Magdalene... Compassion... For the one who never understood my love. Compassion... For the one who one day went astray. My heart will tell you If this is compassion Or the remains of a love. I know very well why you have come Crossing shadows of oblivion: You were beaten by life And you have returned repentant Looking for what was lost. For your sorrows and failures I have my arms open. How can I deny them! If I could not forget you In hours of sorrow.
