No Pretendo

I Do Not Intend

No Pretendo

I don't intend to be the final straw that breaks your silenceNo pretendo ser la gota que derrama tu silencio
Nor do I seek the note that escapes in your lamentNi pretendo la nota que se escapa en tu lamento
I don't intend to be the footprint you leave on your wayNo pretendo ser la huella que se deja en tu camino
Nor do I intend to be the one who crosses your pathNi pretendo ser aquella que se cruza en tu destino

I just want to discover myself in the light of your smileSolo quiero descubrirme tras la luz de tu sonrisa
To be the balm that soothes your sorrows in lifeSer el bálsamo que alivia tus tristezas en la vida
I just want to be the calm that slips away in your sleeplessnessSolo quiero ser la calma que se escurre en tu desvelo
To be the dream in which the reason for your desires restsSer el sueño en que descansa la razón de tus anhelos

It's simply love when it has broken its chainsSimplemente es el amor cuando ha roto sus cadenas
To give you my heart, I don't intend to own youPara darte el corazón, no pretendo ser tu dueña

I don't intend to be the flame where you ignite your passionsNo pretendo ser la llama donde enciendes tus pasiones
Nor do I intend to be the sword that slays your mistakesNi pretendo ser la espada que atraviese tus errores
I don't intend to be the air you breathe at nightNo pretendo ser el aire que respiras en la noche
Nor do I intend to be the flesh that exudes your excessesNi pretendo ser la carne que destila tus derroches

I just want to be the hand that holds in times of troubleSolo quiero ser la mano que se tiene en el quebranto
To be a little bit of that haven where disillusionment diesSer un poco ese remanso donde muere el desengaño
I just want to be the star that sets in your gazeSolo quiero ser la estrella que se engarza en tu mirada
The caress that is given without reason and without wordsLa caricia que se entrega sin razón y sin palabras

It's simply love that has found its waySimplemente es el amor que ha encontrado su camino
To give you an illusion, I don't intend to make you minePara darte una ilusión, no pretendo hacerte mío
It's simply love when it has broken its chainsSimplemente es el amor cuando ha roto sus cadenas
To give you my heart, I don't intend to own youPara darte el corazón, no pretendo ser tu dueña
