La terraza

The Terrace

La terraza

I remember that at night I used to whistle at youRecuerdo que en las noches te solía silbar
From the street to the window,Desde la calle a la ventana,
You would sneak out skirting the dark garden.Tú te escapabas bordeando el oscuro jardín.
Who knows how many moons we watched pass¿Quién sabe cuantas lunas contemplamos pasar
Lying on the terrace?echados en la terraza?
From my house, the sky still looks almost the sameDesde mi casa el cielo se sigue viendo casi igual

I was your bad influence,Yo era tu mala influencia,
You were my princess.Tú fuiste mi princesa.
The most perfect hours are always fragile.Siempre son frágiles las horas más perfectas.
Maybe nostalgia overwhelms meQuizá me invada la nostalgia
For an impossible encounter,Por un encuentro imposible,
Of memories, we only treasure the sublimeDe las memorias sólo atesoramos lo sublime

Now everyone asks me about youAhora todo el mundo me pregunta por ti
And I don't want to explain,Y yo no quiero explicarles,
I don't feel like being friendly.No tengo ánimos de parecer amable.
Who knows how many moons we watched pass¿Quién sabe cuantas lunas contemplamos pasar
Lying on the terrace?Echados en la terraza?
From my house, the sky still looks almost the sameDesde mi casa el cielo se sigue viendo casi igual

Time has passed, this is what I feelHa pasado el tiempo, esto es lo que siento
Of what I tell you, God is my witness,De lo que te digo Dios es mi testigo,
That with every night, every morning,Que con cada noche, que cada mañana,
Every minute, every weekQue todos los minutos, que todas las semanas
I can't stop thinking about what you said,No dejo de pensar en lo que dijiste,
I can't stop holding onto what you gave me,No dejo de aferrarme a lo que me diste,
And what I feel doesn't change, the distance is like the wind,Y no cambia lo que siento, la distancia es como el viento,
It's not living in the past, it's wanting you by my sideNo es vivir en el pasado, es quererte a mi lado
It's just trying to be honest with myself,Es tan solo tratar de ser sincero conmigo mismo,
It's just trying to fill this voidEs tan solo tratar de llenar este vacío
That gnaws at my insides,Que me carcome las entrañas,
That doesn't let me live if you're not by my side.Que no me deja vivir si no estás junto a mi.
