Mia

Mine

Mia

Why did she come to me, without asking for anythingPor que vino a mí, sin pedirme nada
I let her go without calling her mineLa dejé partir sin llamarla mía
Like in a whisper, almost without naming herComo en un suspiro casi sin nombrarla
I called her desire and she called me her lifeLa llamé deseo y ella me llamó su vida

She gave me, life, body, and soulElla dio por mí, vida, cuerpo y alma
But without measuring how much I loved herPero sin medir cuanto la quería
I was everything perfect in her eyesFui todo perfecto para su mirada
But I never knew how to be what her love sawMás no supe nunca ser lo que su amor veía

I didn't know how to love her as she deservedYo no supe amarla como merecía
I didn't know how to love her or call her mineYo no supe amarla ni llamarla mía

ChorusEstribillo
Without any sense, I filled her with absencesSin ningún sentido la llené de ausencias
And she in her memory learned to evade themY ella en su memoria aprendió a evadirlas
I wanted to be for her what she asked of meQuise ser por ella lo que me pedía
Without wanting it, I was only her woundSin que lo quisiera sólo fui su herida
It's been more than a century since I last saw herHace más de un siglo que no he vuelto a verla
But I know she feels like it's only been a dayPero sé que siente que ha pasado un día
I didn't know how to love her as she deservedYo no supe amarla como merecía
I didn't know how to love her or call her mineYo no supe amarla ni llamarla mía
