El jardín prohibido [English translation]

This afternoon I come [all] sad and I have to tell you

That your best friend has been in my arms

Her eyes called me, asking for caresses

Her body begged me to give it life

I ate from the forbidden fruit, leaving the dress

Hanging from our thoughtlessness

My body enjoyed it for a minute

My mind cried for your absence

I won't do it ever again

I won't do it ever again

So my soul flew to your side and my eyes

Tiredly said that you were the one, that you were the one

That it will always be you

I'm really sorry, life is like that

It wasn't me who invented it 1

If pleasure has looked me in the eyes

And taken me by the hand, I've let myself be carried away by my body

And I've behaved like a human being

I'm really sorry, life is like that

It wasn't me who invented it

Her kisses didn't let me repeat your name, and hers yes

That's why when I embraced her, I remembered you

I ate from the forbidden fruit, leaving the dress

Hanging from our thoughtlessness

My body enjoyed it for a minute

My mind cried for your absence

I won't do it ever again

I won't do it ever again

So my soul flew to your side and my eyes

Tiredly said that you were the one, that you were the one

That it will always be you

I'm really sorry, life is like that

It wasn't me who invented it

If pleasure has looked me in the eyes

And taken me by the hand, I've let myself be carried away by my body

And I've behaved like a human being

I'm really sorry, life is like that

It wasn't me who invented it
