Leña Verde

Green Firewood

Leña Verde

You are green firewood that doesn't igniteEres leña verde que no enciende
Water that is never drunkAgua que nunca se bebe
Tree that doesn't take rootÁrbol que no hecha raiz

You live without thinking about your tomorrowVives sin pensar en tu mañana
Weeks slip away from youSe te escapan las semanas
You make plans to fulfillHaces planes cumplir

I, who gave you my whole loveYo, que te di mi amor entero
Today I suffer and despair for not seeing you shareHoy sufro y me desespero por no verte compartir

You are the companion of my bedEres compañera de mi cama
But you don't look at my soulPero no miras mi alma
And love ends like thisY el amor se acaba así

I search for a thousand ways to give youBusco mil maneras para darte
A thousand details and I can't find one that makes you feelMil detalles y no encuentro uno que te haga sentir

Home, for you it's just a wordCasa, para ti es una palabra
A place to spend timeUn lugar donde pasarla
I can't go on like thisYo no puedo así seguir

And I love you, and I love you just the way you areY te quiero, y te quiero tal como eres
Because you ignite my kissesPorque mis besos enciendes
When I'm close to youCuando estoy cerca de ti
But I sense that this loveMás presiento que ese amor
That is in bedQue esta en la cama
Is not the one that nurtures the soulNo es el que mantiene el alma
And you don't think that wayY tu no piensas así

Nothing, I mean nothing to youNada, a ti no te importo nada
If you are a companionCompañera si lo eres
You keep it to yourselfTe lo guardas para ti

Nothing, I mean nothing to youNada, a ti no te importo nada
If you are a companionCompañera si lo eres
You keep it to yourselfTe lo guardas para ti

Nothing, I mean nothing to youNada, a ti no te importo nada
If you are a companionCompañera si lo eres
You keep it to yourselfTe lo guardas para ti
