Chavela

Chavela

Chavela

I would be capable of killingYo seria capaz de matar
Counting the sand of the seaContaria la arena del mar
But there are things a man should not countPero hay cosas que un hombre no debe contar

My lips sealedMi labios sellados
By your cold kissesPor tus besos frios
Sleep foreverDuermen para siempre
Under your parquetBajo tu parquet

Your nails hurtTus uñas lastiman
My blood is very littleMi sangre es muy poca
It only reachesAlcanza tan solo
For a wallPara una pared

The intention is not goodLa intencion no es buena
The mistake differentEl error distinto
The best perfumeEl mejor perfume
Does not change with the skinNo cambia con la piel

The clouds of MayLas nubes de mayo
Cry inconsolablyLloran sin consuelo
When you turn aroundCuando te des vuelta
I will no longer be thereYa no estare mas
