La noche huele a ausencia
The night smells of absence
La casa está muy fría
The house is very cold
Un mal presentimiento
A bad premonition
Me dobla las rodillas
It bends my knees
Te busco en el espacio
I search for you in the void
De mi angustiada prisa
Of my anxious haste
Y solo encuentro rastros
And I only find traces
De tu indudable huida
Of your undeniable flight
¿A dónde vas?
Where are you going?
¿Por qué te vas?
Why are you leaving?
¿Por qué dejaste un gesto
Why did you leave a gesture
De ti por cada esquina?
Of you at every corner?
Si te llevaste tanto
If you took so much away
En solamente un día
In just one day
No te costaba nada
It wouldn't have cost you anything
Cargar con tus manías
To carry your little quirks
Se te olvidó el aroma
You forgot the scent
Y el eco de tu risa
And the echo of your laughter
Se te olvidó llevarme
You forgot to take me
Pedazo de mi vida
Piece of my life
Hablando con tu foto
Talking to your picture
Y la melancolía
And the melancholy
Después de largas horas
After long hours
Por fin, se asoma el día
At last, the day appears
Pero mi fe se pierde
But my faith fades away
Buscando mi agonía
Searching for my agony
Una señal más clara
A clearer sign
Para entender la vida
To understand life
¿A dónde vas?
Where are you going?
¿Por qué te vas?
Why are you leaving?
Dejaste mil fantasmas
You left a thousand ghosts
Detrás de las cortinas
Behind the curtains
Si te llevaste tanto
If you took so much
En solamente un día
In just one day
No te costaba nada
It wouldn't have cost you anything
Cargar con tus manías
To carry your quirks
Se te olvidó el aroma
You forgot the scent
Y el eco de tu risa
And the echo of your laughter
Se te olvidó llevarme
You forgot to take me
Pedazo de mi vida
Piece of my life
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Ah
Si te llevaste tanto
If you took so much away
En solamente un día
In just one day
No te costaba nada
It wouldn't have cost you anything
Cargar con tus manías
To carry your quirks
Se te olvidó el aroma
You forgot the scent
Y el eco de tu risa
And the echo of your laughter
Se te olvidó llevarme
You forgot to take me
Pedazo de mi vida
Piece of my life
No te costaba nada
It didn't cost you anything
Cargar con tus manías
To bear with your quirks
Se te olvidó el aroma
You forgot the scent
Y el eco de tu risa
And the echo of your laughter
Se te olvidó llevarme
You forgot to take me
Pedazo de mi vida
Piece of my life
