Esta es la primera noche que no estás conmigo
This is the first night you're not with me
Yo pense que iba hacer facil pero es un martirio
I thought it would be easy but it's a torment
Siento que me estoy cayendo.
I feel like I'm falling.
Y no puedo levantarme
And I can't get up
Siento que la cama se hace interminable
I feel like the bed is endless
Y la soledad se vuelve irrespirable
And loneliness becomes unbearable
Porque empiezo a comprender,
Because I start to understand,
Que jamás vas a volcer.
That you'll never come back.
Y de mi alma sale un ruido extraño
And from my soul comes a strange noise
Como un cristal que se hizo mil pedazos
Like a glass that shattered into a thousand pieces
Sentí mi corazón.
I felt my heart.
Yo sentí
I felt
Que se me iba la vida.
That life was slipping away from me.
Y como un loco me abrace a tu espacio
And like a madman, I clung to your space.
Llore de rabia y me sentí perdido
I cried out of rage and felt lost.
Sin Saber que hacer
Not knowing what to do.
Mi vida desde hoy dejo de ser.
From today on, my life will no longer be.
Esta es la primera noche que no estás conmigo
This is the first night you're not with me.
Yo pense que iba hacer facil pero es un martirio
I thought it would be easy, but it's a torment.
Siento que me estoy cayendo.
I feel like I'm falling.
Y no puedo levantarme.
And I can't get up.
Siento que la cama se hace interminable
I feel like the bed becomes endless
Y la soledad se vuelve irrespirable
And loneliness becomes unbearable
Porque empiezo a comprender,
Because I start to understand,
Que jamás vas a volcer.
That you'll never come back.
Y de mi alma sale un ruido extraño
And a strange noise comes from my soul
Como un cristal que se hizo mil pedazos
Like a glass that shattered into a thousand pieces
Sentí mi corazón.
I felt my heart.
Yo sentí
I felt
Que se me iba la vida.
That my life was slipping away.
Y como un loco me abrace a tu espacio
And like a fool, I clung to your space
Llore de rabia y me sentí perdido
I cried with rage and felt so lost
Sin Saber que hacer
Without knowing what to do
Mi vida desde hoy dejo de ser.
My life from today ceased to exist.
Y como un loco me abrace a tu espacio
And like a fool, I clung to your space
Llore de rabia y me sentí perdido
I cried with rage and felt so lost
Sin Saber que hacer
Without knowing what to do
Mi vida desde hoy dejo de ser.
My life from today ceased to exist.
Esta es la primera noche que paso sin ti.
This is the first night I'm spending without you.
