Volver a empezar [English translation]

What we do with broken dreams

With promises that weren't true

With lies discovered

Inopportunely, disappointments

Open wounds

An easy gait shows more than a smile,

A goodbye thrown in the air, effortlessly and without thinking

It shows more than what we are in reality,

The face that we show when1there’s nothing to win

Today you’ll have to2 start again

With the emptiness3 that you are left with

Today you’ll have to swap

What you know for what will come

Today you’ll have to start again…

A burning heart knows how to flourish

It knows how to shine in the darkness

It knows that life is not a waltz

It knows of pain and loneliness

Knowing how to cry shows more than a smile

Saying here I am, I have nothing now

It shows more than what we are in reality,

When we talk with courage and sincerity

Today you’ll have to start again

With the emptiness that you are left with

Today you’ll have to swap

What you know for what will come

Today you’ll have to start again

With the emptiness that you are left with

Today you’ll have to swap

What you know for what will come

Today you’ll have to start again…
