Diamonds and Amaranth

Diamantes y Amaranto

Deeply grateful I amProfundamente agradecido estoy
For having loved youPor haberte amado
It doesn't matter if at the beginning, in the middle, or at the endNo importa si al principio, en medio o al final
I could have criedPude haber llorado

And nothing I doY es que nada de lo que haga
Will change the factsCambiará los hechos
Time cracks everything, everythingEl tiempo resquebraja todo, todo
And us tooY a nosotros también

I take the best of it, for I was happyMe llevo lo mejor, pues fui feliz
More than anyone in this world and in lifeMás que nadie en este mundo y en la vida
I have learned to carry your scarHe aprendido a llevar tu cicatriz
Always burningSiempre encendida

Why do you extinguish me¿Por qué me apagas
With your kisses that taste like lies?Con tus besos que me saben a mentira?
You are the greatest pain in my lifeEres el dolor más grande de mi vida
I just want to uproot you from the rootSolo quiero arrancarte y de raíz

To forget, the diamondsIr olvidando, los diamantes
Turned into amaranthSe volvieron amaranto
How could I allow myself to love you so much?¿Cómo pude permitirme amarte tanto?
What sadness to keep needing youQué tristeza seguirte necesitando

I don't feel guiltyNo siento culpa
Because, truthfully, I have given everythingPues, la verdad, lo he dado todo
Only your memory remainsSolo queda tu recuerdo
Alcohol and a 'oh well' leftEl alcohol y un ya ni modo

I take the best of it, for I was happyMe llevo lo mejor, pues fui feliz
More than anyone in this world and in lifeMás que nadie en este mundo y en la vida
I have learned to carry your scarHe aprendido a llevar tu cicatriz
Always burningSiempre encendida

Why do you extinguish me¿Por qué me apagas
With your kisses that taste like lies?Con tus besos que me saben a mentira?
You are the greatest pain in my lifeEres el dolor más grande de mi vida
I just want to uproot you from the rootSolo quiero arrancarte y de raíz

To forget, the diamondsIr olvidando, los diamantes
Turned into amaranthSe volvieron amaranto
How could I allow myself to love you so much?¿Cómo pude permitirme amarte tanto?
What sadness to keep needing youQué tristeza seguirte necesitando

To forget, the diamondsIr olvidando, los diamantes
Turned into amaranthSe volvieron amaranto
How could I allow myself to love you so much?¿Cómo pude permitirme amarte tanto?
What sadness to keep needing youQué tristeza seguirte necesitando
