Noches En Vela
Cuanto tiempo he de esperar,
para tenerte bajo la luna,
besar tu piel que es de aceituna.
Cuantos años pasaran,
sin que te acune como un tesoro,
peinar tu pelo que es de oro.
[estribillo]
Me he pasao la noche en vela,
como la vez primera,
en que te vine yo a rondar,
no quedan luces en el puerto,
así que estaré atento,
por si confundiste el mar.
Dices que es para mejor,
que la distancia es el olvido
yo solo quiero estar contigo
no me importará esperar
por tus recuerdos vuelan gaviotas,
guitarras, niños, amapolas.
[estribillo] x2
Que la distancia es el olvido
yo solo quiero estar contigo
[estribillo] x2
Sleepless Nights
How long must I wait,
to have you under the moon,
to kiss your skin that's like an olive.
How many years will pass,
without cradling you like a treasure,
combing your hair that's like gold.
[chorus]
I've spent the night wide awake,
just like the very first time,
when I came to court you,
there are no lights in the harbor,
so I'll stay alert,
in case you mistook the sea.
You say it's for the best,
that distance is forgetting,
I just want to be with you,
I won't mind waiting
for your memories, seagulls fly,
guitars, children, poppies.
[chorus] x2
That distance is forgetting,
I just want to be with you.
[chorus] x2
