Tú y mi ciudad [English translation]

A reason for living made me love you

How many of your lessons has my soul learned!

I don't know what I did to lose you

I didn't even notice when it happened

Today my disillusion even eats up a cure,

and in my harsh words it leaves behind the taste of

an illusion when it doesn't mature: how do you get rid of that?

A love absent of kisses, that watches my loneliness,

now I want to forget you and I don't know how to begin.

I doubt what I know and I fool myself daily

because I feel you alive inside of me.

How do I forget you, if you are my calendar?

How do I grow, if it's not in you?

Nighttime is like a drink that I drink alone,

in the four walls of my anxiety.

What I thought was forever

barely lasted; when will this end?

A love absent of kisses, bring it to an end

I came this far by loving you,

and now I want to forget you
