Lyrics
Español
Ya sé que me has olvidado. Ya sé que te fuiste lejos. Ya sé que con mis consejos no te voy a enderezar. Ya sé que no hay más destino que abrir todas las tranqueras y galopar campo afuera para poder olvidar. Ya ves, me han dejado triste tus ojos engañadores. Ya ves, coseché dolores al arar tu soledad. No sé si al verme tan lejos tendrás arrepentimientos. No sé... pero lo presiento que al fin me vas a llorar. Cuando palpité tu olvido, cuando vi que estabas ida quise amarrarte a mi vida con un tiento de ilusión. Y al comprender que eras otra, que no eras mi compañera, busqué rumbear campo afuera para engañar el amor. No quiero alardear de fuerte ¡diciendo que te he olvidado! Sé que estarás a mi lado caliente como un rencor. Pero si existe el castigo de recordar lo pasado, ese castigo obligado lo sufriremos los dos.

I know you've forgotten me. I know that you went far away. I know that with my advice I'm not going to straighten you out. I already know that there is no other destiny but to open all the gates and gallop out into the countryside in order to forget. You see, your deceitful eyes your deceitful eyes. You see, I reaped pains by plowing your loneliness. I don't know if seeing me so far away you will have regrets. I don't know... but I can feel it that at last you're going to cry for me. When I felt your oblivion, when I saw that you were gone I wanted to tie you to my life with a touch of illusion. And when I realized that you were someone else, that you were not my companion, I sought to roam the countryside to deceive love. I don't want to boast of being strong saying that I've forgotten you! I know you'll be by my side hot as a grudge. But if there is a punishment of remembering the past that forced punishment we will both suffer it.
