You're Not Here

No estás

MomMamá
Today I saw youhoy te he visto
strolling through the skypaseando por el cielo
like we used to docomo haciamos tú y yo
mommamá
I would loveme encantaría
to take that walk with youdar contigo ese paseo
every daycada día
if you're not here, the sun no longer comes to have breakfastsi tú no estás ya no viene el sol a desayunar
in your room every morninga tu habitación cada mañana
mommamá
if you're awakesi estás despierta
I'll come up to give you a kisssubiré a darte un beso
on your cotton beda tu cama de algodón
mommamá
if I couldsi pudiera
I would come up to give you a kisssubiria a darte un beso
every daycada día
if you're not heresi tú no estás
the sun no longer comes to have breakfastya no viene el sol a desayunar
in your room every morninga tu habitación cada mañana
you taught me how to build castlesme enseñaste a hacer castillos
of sand and saltde arena y de sal
and not to feel sady a que no sintiera pena
if the sea took them awaysi el mar se los llevaba
and if I cried, you hugged mey si lloraba, me abrazabas
and we both laughedy reíamos las dos
you're not hereno estás
mommamá
today I saw youhoy te he visto
bringing light to the rainbowdando luz al arco iris
that was losing its colorque perdía su color
mommamá
I would stayme quedaría
to paint the world with you from abovea pintar contigo el mundo desde arriba
if you're not here, the sun no longer comes to have breakfastsi tú no estás ya no viene el sol a desayunar
in your room every morninga tu habitación cada mañana
if you're not heresi tú no estás
I don't know how to untieno se como hacer para desatar
this knot anchored in my throateste nudo anclado a mi garganta
