Por Tu Ausencia

Because of Your Absence

Por Tu Ausencia

Some years have passed alreadyAlgunos años han pasado ya
And my heart can't stop cryingY mi corazón no deja de llorar
Because of your absencePor tu ausencia
Because of your absencePor tu ausencia

And I don't understandY no comprendo yo
Why God took you away from mePorque te llevo Dios y te quitó de mi
I also love youTambién te quiero yo
Without being your creatorSin ser tu creador
You were born for meNaciste para mi

I sing to you from the heartYo te canto de corazón
I sing to you with my voiceYo te canto con mi voz
I sing to you from the heartYo te canto de corazón
I sing to you with my voiceYo te canto con mi voz

And if my voice fails meY si me falta la voz
I sing to you with my handsYo te canto con las manos
And if my hands fail meY si me faltan las manos
I sing to you with my heartYo te canto con el corazón
And if my heart fails meY si me falta el corazón
It's because we are both in heavenEs que en el cielo estamos los dos

The strings of that guitar are already lamentingLamentándose están ya las cuerdas de aquella guitarra
That you played with your handsQue tú con tus manos tocabas
And I listenedY yo la escuchaba
And that hidden little bird sang and sangY aquel pajarillo escondido cantaba y cantaba
While I, as always, dreamily looked out the windowMientras yo soñador como siempre a la ventana miraba

And I no longer blame myself because I no longer have youY ya no me hago reproches pues ya no te tengo
If the Lord wanted you to live with HimSi el señor ha querido que vivas con él
In heavenEn el cielo
And I, as always, remain crying and singingY yo como siempre me quedo llorando y cantando
Destiny has wanted to keep us both apartEl destino ha querido tenernos a los dos separados

I sing to you from the heartYo te canto de corazón
I sing to you with my voiceYo te canto con mi voz
I sing to you from the heartYo te canto de corazón
I sing to you with my voiceYo te canto con mi voz

And if my voice fails meY si me falta la voz
I sing to you with my handsYo te canto con las manos
And if my hands fail meY si me faltan las manos
I sing to you with my heartYo te canto con el corazón
And if my heart fails meY si me falta el corazón
It's because we are both in heavenEs que en el cielo estamos los dos
