Lyrics

Español

Noche azul, tan llena de quietud, como en aquellos días... Emoción de nuestra juventud perdida en el ayer. Me alejé sin comprender su amor y nunca la busqué y hoy que soy así como un dolor entre las sombras no puedo ya volver. Si de mí te has olvidado ¿qué haré con esta vida que se aturde en un pasado de dichas ya perdidas? ¿A dónde iré llorando? ¿A dónde iré muriendo que no me estén mirando tus ojos como ayer? Si de mí te has olvidado mi mente no te olvida... Si te mí te has olvidado se acabará mi vida... Y en este drama horrendo de andar por ti llorando yo sé que ni muriendo de ti me olvidaré. Si una vez llegaras a escuchar estas palabras mías, recordando sé que has de llorar por este viejo amor. Cada vez me siguen más y más tus ojos y tu voz... Y al saberme así, como un dolor entre las sombras me ahoga el corazón.

English · machine translation

Blue night, so full of stillness, as in those days... Emotion of our youth lost in yesterday. I walked away without understanding her love and never looked for her and today that I am like a pain in the shadows I can no longer return. If you have forgotten me what shall I do with this life that is dazed in a past of lost joys? Where will I go crying? Where will I go dying that your eyes are not looking at me your eyes like yesterday? If you have forgotten me my mind does not forget you... If you have forgotten me my life will be over... And in this horrendous drama of walking around crying for you I know that not even dying I won't forget you. If once you were to hear these words of mine, remembering I know that you will weep for this old love. More and more your eyes and your voice your eyes and your voice... And knowing me like this, like a pain in the shadows chokes my heart.
