Amores dormidos [English translation]

*

Come and hug me again

'cause I can't sleep.

It's hard for me to be happy.

*

I know that nothing will come back.

That we needed to listen more.

That it's too late to talk.

*

See? That which is leaving

is our love that is

tired of waiting.

*

I don't know why I accidentally love you.

I'm scared of seeing you fine.

Drag me down this time.

*

I'm talking about dormant loves,

about a photo album that remains empty.

About the cold in bed, the cold with you

and a dull stroll along the boulevard.

I'm talking about dormant loves

that feel forbidden kisses,

that cheat a thousand times, that don't play fairly

and sit and look at life passing by.

*

You prefer to draw

and I want to paint

the same dawn.

*

I know all this happened

because neither you nor I

had more courage.

*

So come and tell me that this time

you want to protect me

from the dream I talked to you about.

*

I'm talking about dormant loves,

about a photo album that remains empty.

About the cold in bed, the cold with you

and a dull stroll along the boulevard.

I'm talking about dormant loves

that feel forbidden kisses,

that cheat a thousand times, that don't play fairly

and sit and look at life passing by.

*

I sold my will,

my will to fight

to an old acquaintance.

To a bad friend of mine

which is the fear of waking up.

*

I'm talking about dormant loves,

about a photo album that remains empty.

About the cold in bed, the cold with you

and a dull stroll along the boulevard.

I'm talking about dormant loves

that feel forbidden kisses,

that cheat a thousand times, that don't play fairly

and sit and look at life passing by.

*

I'm talking about dormant loves

that only caress their children.

That were such good friends

that they will no longer be able to wake up.
