Yellow Letters

Cartas Amarillas

I dreamed of the sunriseSoñé que volvía amanecer
I dreamed of autumns, now distantSoñé con otoños, ya lejanos
My light has faded, my night has comeMi luz se ha apagado, mi noche ha llegado
I searched for your gaze and didn't find itBusque tu mirada y no la hallé

The rain has stopped fallingLa lluvia ha dejado de caer
Sitting on the beach of oblivionSentado en la playa del olvido
I shaped, with the sandForme, con la arena
Your serene imageTu imagen serena
Your hair with seaweed I drewTu pelo con algas dibujé

And I searched among yourY busqué entre tus cartas
Yellow lettersAmarillas
A thousand I love yous, a thousand caressesMil te quiero, mil caricias
And a flower that between two pagesY una flor que entre dos hojas
Fell asleepSe durmió
And my empty armsY mis brazos vacíos
Were closingSe cerraban
Clutching at nothingAferrándose a la nada
Trying to stop my youthIntentando detener mi juventud

Finally, today I have returned to the truthAl fin, hoy he vuelto a la verdad
My empty hands have searched for youMis manos vacías te han buscado
The grass has grown, the Sun has fallen asleepLa hierva ha crecido, el Sol se ha dormido
I call you and you no longer hear my voiceTe llamo y no escuchas ya mi voz

And I searched among yourY busqué entre tus cartas
Yellow lettersAmarillas
A thousand I love yous, a thousand caressesMil te quiero, mil caricias
And a flower that between two pagesY una flor que entre dos hojas
Fell asleepSe durmió
And my empty armsY mis brazos vacíos
Were closingSe cerraban
Clutching, at nothingAferrándose, a la nada
Trying to stop my youthIntentando detener mi juventud
