Y Si Tu Amor No Vuelve

And If Your Love Doesn't Return

For his love
you have done things you would never do for me
The same things that I, like a fool, did for you

You no longer drink or smoke at gatherings
because he asked you to

But I know
that someone could do the same for my love
So no one will break my heart
Since you did it and left with him

AND IF YOUR LOVE DOESN'T RETURN
I'll have to settle for photographs
I'll have to make an album of your joys
And all the moments I lived with you

I'll be a collector IF YOUR LOVE DOESN'T RETURN
Painting the walls with so many memories
Scratching my life with so much silence
Crying like a child because I don't have you
And a damn idiot stole my dreams

My heart is wounded
And today my song bleeds
I can't be without you

****

For your love
I gave up my life to live your life
I sold my dreams to live your dreams
And today you leave and also have the luxury
Of telling them to him

I will hate you
If you don't come back there is no remedy I will hate you
And although it seems absurd I will love you over time
Because it's clear I can't live without you

AND IF YOUR LOVE DOESN'T RETURN
My soul will go looking for you far from my body
Carrying two suitcases full of silence
Fleeing from failure because I don't have you
And a damn idiot stole your body

My heart is wounded
And today my song bleeds
I can't be without you

AND IF YOUR LOVE DOESN'T RETURN
I'll have to settle for photographs
I'll have to make an album of your joys
And all the moments I lived with you
I'll be a collector IF YOUR LOVE DOESN'T RETURN

Painting the walls with so many memories
Scratching my life with so much silence
Fleeing from failure because I don't have you
And a damn idiot stole your body

I'll have to settle for photographs
I'll have to make an album of your joys
And all the moments that I lived with you
