La Carta

The Letter

La Carta

Not long ago I read your letter,no hace mucho que leí tu carta,
and, with no strength to reply,y, sin fuerzas para contestar,
thousands of pieces separate us in the wind.mil pedazos al viento nos separan.
I will build a house in a distant countrypondré casa en un país
to forgetlejano para olvidar
this fear towards you, this fear towards you.este miedo hacia ti, este miedo hacia ti.

And not long ago I brokey no hace mucho que rompí
your memory thinkingtu recuerdo pensando
to end it once and for all.acabar de una vez.
But time and distancepero el tiempo y la distancia
are not everything to meno son todo para mí
there is always something that makes me come back.siempre hay algo que me hace volver.

I have always heard, and I no longer believe yousiempre he escuchado, y ya no te creo
Why don't I understand you?¿por qué no te entiendo?
Why are you so far away?¿por qué estás tan lejos?
I have always heard, and I no longer believe yousiempre he escuchado, y ya no te creo
Why don't I understand you?¿por qué no te entiendo?
Why are you so far away?¿por qué estás tan lejos?

I know I have always been like thissé que siempre he sido así
and I have no remedy,y que no tengo remedio,
nor do I want to have it.ni lo quiero tener.
But neither fear nor your letterspero ni el miedo ni tu cartas
are everything to melo son todo para mí
maybe I will blame you again.quizás otra vez te echaré la culpa a ti.

I have always heard, and I no longer believe yousiempre he escuchado, y ya no te creo
Why don't I understand you?¿por qué no te entiendo?
Why are you so far away?¿por qué estás tan lejos?
I have always heard, and I no longer believe yousiempre he escuchado, y ya no te creo
Why don't I understand you?¿por qué no te entiendo?
Why are you so far away?¿por qué estás tan lejos?
