La Barca

The Boat

La Barca

They say that distance is forgetfulnessDicen que la distancia es olvido
But I don't conceive that reasonPero yo no concibo esa razón
Because I will continue to be the captivePor que yo seguiré siendo el cautivo
Of the whims of your heartDe los caprichos de tu corazón

You knew how to clarify my thoughtsSupiste esclarecer mis pensamientos
You gave me the illusion I dreamed ofMe distes la ilusión que yo soñé
You chased away my sorrowsAhuyentaste de mi, los sufrimientos
From the first night I loved youDesde la primera noche que te amé

Today my beach is dressed in bitternessHoy mi playa se viste de amargura
Because your boat has to departPorque tu barca tiene que partir
To cross other seas of madnessA cruzar otros mares de locura
Take care not to shipwreck your lifeCuida que no naufragues tu vivir

When the sunlight is fadingCuando la luz del Sol se esté apagando
And you feel tired of wanderingY te sientas cansada de vagar
Think that I will be waiting for youPiensa que yo por ti estaré esperando
Until you decide to returnHasta que tu decidas regresar

Today my beach is dressed in bitternessHoy mi playa se viste de amargura
Because your boat has to departPorque tu barca tiene que partir
To cross other seas of madnessA cruzar otros mares de locura
Take care not to shipwreck in your lifeCuida que no naufrague en tu vivir

When the sunlight is fadingCuando la luz del Sol se esté apagando
And you feel tired of wanderingY te sientas cansada de vagar
Think that I will be waiting for youPiensa que yo por ti estaré esperando
Until you decide to returnHasta que tu decidas regresar
