Carta De Verano

Summer Letter

Carta De Verano

UnmistakableInconfundible
FeelingsSentimientos
Joe VerasJoe Veras

From your summer letters I sensedPor tus cartas del verano presentía
That this year you wouldn't come to embrace meQue este año no vendrías a abrazarme
And I didn't tell anyone, a melancholy was shattering my soulY a nadie dije nada, que una melancolía me destrozaba el alma
Because of the gesture of a friend who arrivedPor el gesto de un amigo que llegaba
I understood that today you have another thoughtComprendí que hoy tienes otro pensamiento
And that to this provincial who gave you his life, time has erasedY que a este provinciano que te entregó la vida te lo ha borrado el tiempo

No wonder so much silence and you never want to say anythingCon razón tanto silencio y nunca quieres decir nada
No wonder someone told me your girlfriend has changed a lotCon razón alguien me dijo tu novia está muy cambiada
You threw your reputation to the ground along with my dreamsTu reputación la echaste al suelo junto con mis sueños
And you are no longer the girl who invited me to churchY ya no eres esa niña que a la iglesia me invitaba

Today that your love has died and I get lost in oblivionHoy que tu amor ha fallecido y yo me pierdo en el olvido
You know well that you are my best timesSabes bien que tú eres mis mejores tiempos
Not because of your summer lettersNo por tus cartas del verano
I cry because I love youLloro porque yo te amo
But you care little about the feelingPero a ti te importa poco el sentimiento
And here I am dyingY aquí yo estoy muriendo

The man of your life (spoken)El hombre de tu vida (hablado)

Because of the gesture of a friend who arrivedPor el gesto de un amigo que llegaba
I understood that today you have another thoughtComprendí que hoy tienes otro pensamiento
And that this provincial who gave you his lifeY que este provinciano que te entrego la vida
Time has erased himTe lo ha borrado el tiempo
I heard that you even smoke, that you forgot your friendsMe contaron que hasta fuma, que olvidaste a tus amigos
That you comment in gatherings, nothing to do with meQue comentas en reuniones, que nada que ver conmigo
Meanwhile, I was waiting for you to return to my townMientras tanto yo esperando que volvieras a mi pueblo
To kill you with a hug but my dream didn't come truePa' matarte de un abrazo pero no pinte mi sueño

And today that your love has died and I get lost in oblivionY hoy que tu amor ha fallecido y yo me pierdo en el olvido
You know well that you are my best timesSabes bien que tú eres mis mejores tiempos
Not because of your summer lettersNo por tus cartas del verano
I cry because I love youLloro porque yo te amo
But you care little about the feelingPero a ti te importa poco el sentimiento

No wonder my friends don't look me in the faceCon razón que mis amigos no me miran a la cara
No wonder Juan told me your girlfriend has changed a lotCon razón que Juan me dijo tu novia está muy cambiada
Meanwhile, I was waiting for you to return to my townMientras tanto yo esperando que volvieras a mi pueblo
To kill you with a hug, I didn't fulfill my dreamPa' matarte de un abrazo yo no realice mi sueño

And today that your love has died and I get lost in oblivionY hoy que tu amor ha fallecido y yo me pierdo en el olvido
You know well that you are my best timesSabes bien que tú eres mis mejores tiempos
Not because of your summer lettersNo por tus cartas del verano
I cry because I love youLloro porque yo te amo
But you care little about the feelingPero a ti te importa poco el sentimiento
I'm still here waitingYo sigo aquí esperando
I don't care how longNo me importa hasta cuando
I'm still here in my townYo sigo aquí en mi pueblo
And I still love youY aún te sigo amando
