Lyrics

Español

La vi esa tarde Vestida de blanco, Pasó sin mirarme Tan cerca mío. Cómo es posible La quise tanto, Y halló en mis brazos Calor de nido. Cerré los ojos ¡Qué ganas de hablarle! Sentí derrumbarse Toda mi vida. Pero la voz de la razón Conociéndome, Ahogó mi corazón. Volví mis pasos temblando Con el alma deshecha, Con los ojos sangrando No puedo vivir sin ella, Llorando, llorando. Por qué dejé que se fuera así Sin decirle mi angustia, Sin contarle mis penas Luego digo todavía, Compréndela, amor, ¿Por qué ?

English · machine translation

I saw her that afternoon Dressed in white, She passed by without looking at me So close to me. How is it possible I loved her so much, And she found in my arms The warmth of a nest. I closed my eyes How I wanted to talk to her! I felt my whole life My whole life. But the voice of reason Knowing me, Drowned out my heart. I turned my trembling steps With my soul undone, With eyes bleeding I can't live without her, Crying, crying. Why did I let her go like this Without telling her my anguish, Without telling her my sorrows Then I still say, Understand her, love, Why did I let her go?
