Yesterday I was rememberingAyer estaba recordando
your house... my house...tu casa... mi casa...
Portal where the moon got bored waiting,¡Portal donde la luna se aburrió esperando,
lemon verbena where time perfumescedrón por donde el tiempo se perfuma
and passes!y pasa!
And seeing that we got oldY al ver que nos pusimos viejos
and we are more alone,y estamos más solos,
I feel a waltz crying on your pianosiento un vals en tu piano llorar
and I start to thinky me pongo a pensar
if it doesn't cry out of love.si no llora de amor.

It was the first eraEra la era primera
that extinguishes the dark circlesque apaga la ojera
and ignites the blush,y enciende el rubor,
and one night - do you remember? - a kissy una noche -¿te acuerdas?- un beso
under the cherry treedebajo del cerezo
sealed our love.sellaba nuestro amor.
Love could have been a knotPudo el amor ser un nudo
but I doubt it couldmas dudo que pudo
fight to overcome...luchando vencer...
One house was poor, the other rich...Una casa era pobre, otra rica...
It is easily explained thatFácilmente se explica que
it couldn't be.no pudo ser.

So, through the memory, I cryAsí, por el recuerdo, lloro
your house... my house...tu casa... mi casa...
Your love, which is withered in a golden caseTu amor, que está marchito en un estuche de oro
my love, which in the end - if given - remainedmi amor, que al fin -de darse- se quedó
without embers...sin brasas...
And seeing that we got oldY al ver que nos pusimos viejos
and everything was in vain,y todo fue en vano,
I feel a waltz crying on your pianosiento un vals en tu piano llorar
and I start to thinky me pongo a pensar
if it doesn't cry out of love.si no llora de amor.
