Ausencia
Ha terminado otro capítulo en mi vida
La mujer que amaba hoy se me fue
Esperando, noche y día
Y no se decide a volver
Pero yo sé que volverá
Y si no de penas moriré
Que yo he hecho
Que te hizo, partir
No sé, si con el tiempo
Esta herida se sanará
No hubo, motivo
Para terminar
La he tratado de olvidar
Más, sin embargo, la recuerdo más
No se asombren
Si ven a un hombre llorar
(No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando)
(No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando)
El día en que tú te fuiste
Triste me quedé llorando
Ay regresa te lo pido
Que por tu amor, te juro, me estoy matando
(No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando)
(No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando)
Eh, yo vi llorar a un hombre ante un espejo
Por un amor, que le negara el cielo
Y asombrado me dio un escalofrío
Al ver en el espejo, el rostro mío
(No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando)
(No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando)
Eh, y yo seguiré esperando
Hasta el día, en que me muera
Si Dios me quita la luna no me siento malo
Pero si me lleva a ti, me lleva las estrellas
(No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando)
(No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando)
Oye veinte años no son nada
Si te gusta romper un coco
Por mi madre yo te juro a ti cosa buena
Que si no vuelves, yo me voy a volver loco
No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando
No importa tu ausencia, te sigo esperando
Absence
Another chapter has ended in my life
The woman I loved has left me today
Waiting, night and day
And she can't decide to come back
But I know she will return
And if not, I will die of sorrow
What I did
That made you leave
I don't know if with time
This wound will heal
There was no reason
To end
I've tried to forget her
But still, I remember her more
Don't be surprised
If you see a man crying
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
The day you left
I stayed sad, crying
Oh, come back, I beg you
Because of your love, I swear, I'm killing myself
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
Hey, I saw a man cry in front of a mirror
For a love that heaven denied him
And I was amazed, I shivered
Seeing in the mirror, my own face
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
Hey, and I will keep waiting
Until the day I die
If God takes away the moon, I won't feel bad
But if He takes me to you, He takes the stars
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
Hey, twenty years are nothing
If you like breaking a coconut
I swear to you by my mother, something good
That if you don't come back, I will go crazy
Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting
Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting
