Gavilán o Paloma

Hawk or Dove

Gavilán o Paloma

You couldn't stop looking, you were aloneNo dejabas de mirar, estabas sola
Completely beautiful and sensualCompletamente bella y sensual
Something dragged me towards you like a waveAlgo me arrastró hacia ti como una ola
And I went and said to you: Hello, how are you?Y fui y te dije: Hola, ¿qué tal?

That night in your arms, I fell into the trapEsa noche entre tus brazos, caí en la trampa
You caught the apprentice seducerCazaste al aprendiz de seductor
And you fed me from your handY me diste de comer sobre tu palma
Making me your humble servantHaciéndome tu humilde servidor

You have to see how love isHay que ver cómo es el amor
It turns whoever takes itQue vuelve a quien lo toma
Hawk or doveGavilán o paloma
Poor fool, naive chatterboxPobre tonto, ingenuo charlatán
I was a dove for wanting to be a hawkQue fui paloma por querer ser gavilán

I slowly lowered your dressFui bajando lentamente tu vestido
And you didn't let me speakY tú no me dejaste ni hablar
You just sighed: I need youSolamente suspirabas: Te necesito
Hug me tighter, moreAbrázame más fuerte, más

Looking at you, I felt disillusionedAl mirarte, me sentí desengañado
Your warmth only made me coldSolo me dio frío tu calor
Slowly I let you go from my armsLentamente, te solté de entre mis brazos
And said: Stay still, pleaseY dije: Estate quieta, por favor
