Fuiste tú [English translation]

It was you

To have you was to have your picture in my wallet,

A kiss and seeing you disappear on the road,

Yours was the intermittent and the melancholy

Mine was to accept everything because I loved you

Seeing you arrive was light, seeing you leave was the blues

It was you

It goes without saying that so many things were left unsaid

Learn to love the thorns or don’t accept the roses

I never told a lie, or invented blackmail

Gray clouds are also part of the scenery

Don’t look at me like that, if there was a guilty one here

It was you.

It was so easy to touch the sky the first time

when the kisses ignited the engine

that turned on the light that now disappears

That’s how love disguises itself for it’s convenience

Accepting everything without asking questions

And letting time push it towards death

Nothing more to say,

just to insist

Say it….

It was you,

The neon lights in the street know how tired I am

They have seen me walk barefoot at dawn

I’m in between who I am and who you want me to be

Wanting to wake up and thinking how I really don’t want to

Don’t look at me like that, if there was a guilty one here

It was you.

It was so easy to touch the sky the first time

when the kisses ignited the engine

that turned on the light that now disappears

That’s how love disguises itself for it’s convenience

Accepting everything without asking questions

And letting time push it towards death

Nothing more to say,

just to insist

Say it….

It was so easy to touch the sky the first time

when the kisses ignited the engine

that turned on the light that now disappears

That’s how love disguises itself for it’s convenience

Accepting everything without asking questions

And letting time push it towards death

Nothing more to say,

just to insist

Say it….
