Lyrics

Español

Yo no sé qué será de ti, Cada vez te recuerdo más, Tu silencio me dice Todo, todo, que no volverás. Cuántas veces me pregunto Si es verdad que no me quieres, Pero al ver que así me hieres Te acusa mi corazón. No alcanzo a comprender por qué razón No tienes para mí, más corazón, Mi alma te ofreció con gran placer Un mundo de ilusión y de querer. La triste realidad me matará, No puedes castigar con tu rigor La dicha que me dio tu amor. Yo no sé si comprenderás Que no puedo vivir así, Esta duda maldita Me entristece y pesa siempre en mí. No me pagues con desdenes Esperanza de mi vida, El que quiere nunca olvida Ni juega con el amor.

English · machine translation

I don't know what will become of you, I remember you more and more, Your silence tells me Everything, everything, that you won't come back. How many times I ask myself If it's true that you don't love me, But seeing you hurt me like this My heart accuses you. I can't understand why You have no more heart for me, My soul offered you with great pleasure A world of illusion and love. The sad reality will kill me, You cannot punish with your rigor The joy that your love gave me. I don't know if you will understand That I can't live like this, This damned doubt It saddens me and always weighs on me. Don't repay me with disdain Hope of my life, He who loves never forgets Nor plays with love.
