La sombra llega y no espera
The shadow comes and doesn't wait
Se presenta y no te deja opción
It shows up and leaves you no choice
Todo se vuelve madera, yo lo siento
Everything turns to wood, I feel it
Y no tengo un amor para dar
And I don't have a love to give
Cuando te quiero te digo
When I love you, I tell you
Que te quiero y no hay nada mejor
That I love you and there's nothing better
Mi madre dice que espere
My mother says to wait
Y el mercurio no me da la razón
And the mercury doesn't give me a reason
Porque
Because
Asi como estoy no puedo ir
Just as I am, I can't go
(Asi como estoy, no puedo)
(Just as I am, I can't)
Nadie me enseñó como sentir
No one taught me how to feel
Nadie me enseñó como sentir (Nadie me enseñó como sentir)
No one taught me how to feel (No one taught me how to feel)
Nadie me enseñó como vivir
No one taught me how to live
Cuando miro la alborada
When I gaze at the dawn
Doy un pase y sigo ese sol
I make a move and follow that sun
La gente dice que es tuyo
People say it's yours
Y no es tuyo y no es mio
But it's not yours and it's not mine
Pero aquí estoy
But here I am
Aqui es donde yo estoy
Here is where I am
Entrás (entrás)
You enter (you enter)
Te vas (te vas)
You leave (you leave)
Me cortas las palabras
You cut my words
Me amás (me amás)
You love me (you love me)
Te vas (te vas)
You leave (you leave)
La llama ya se abre
The flame is already opening
Porque mi ángel se fue
Because my angel has gone
(Porque mi ángel se fue)
(Because my angel has gone)
Cuando estaba acá
When you were here
Porque mi ángel se fue
Because my angel has gone
