Verte otra vez [English translation]

My desire was opened up uselessly

And it said to you ‘come to me’

But I only saw you from a corner

Leaving here forever

The urgency of my voice remained

When you left1 it was lost

And you on your way out forgot to shut

The river of my longings

All that could've happened

Slipped away

Along with the hope

Of seeing you again

Seeing you again

I know, at times my desire to

Find you again triumphs

And I’m writing poems that celebrate

Our story

That’ll never happen

But it’s good to celebrate

All that could've happened

Slipped away

Along with the hope

Of seeing you again

Seeing you again

All that could've happened

Slipped away

Along with the hope

Of seeing you again

Seeing you again

To know if you

Were something that I made up...

Or if it could be true

Or if it could be true

All that could've happened

Slipped away

Along with the hope

Of seeing you again

Seeing you again

All that could've happened

Slipped away

Along with the hope

Of seeing you again

Seeing you again
