The Letter

La Carta

I've lived an imperfect lifeLlevo una vida imperfecta
And a distraction here and thereY una que otra distracción
I got used to so many peopleMe acostumbré a tanta gente
To all this noiseA tanto ruido
That I just couldn't see youQue no, no te supe ver
And I don't know whyY no sé por qué

And now I realizeY ahora me doy cuenta
You are my answerTú eres mi respuesta
How could I be so cruelCómo pude ser tan cruel
To have you and not look at youDe tenerte y no mirarte
I hope it's not too lateOjalá no sea tarde
To love you this timePara amarte esta vez

I couldn't escape this mazeNo podía escaparme de este laberinto
I didn't see a different endNo veía un final distinto
Fate tricked meEl destino me engañó
I was so indifferentYo estaba tan indiferente
You by my side and I couldn't see youTú a mi lado y yo no te supe ver
And I don't know whyY no sé por qué

And now I realizeY ahora me doy cuenta
You are my answerTú eres mi respuesta
How could I be so cruelCómo pude ser tan cruel
To have you and not look at youDe tenerte y no mirarte
I hope it's not too lateOjalá no sea tarde
To love you this time, ohPara amarte esta vez, oh

I want to come find youQuiero irte a buscar
Dance in the darkBailar en la oscuridad
This time it's for realEsta vez es de verdad
Give me another chanceDame otra oportunidad
To kiss you againDe volverte a besar
The past is goneEl pasado no está más
And even though I couldn't love youY aunque no te supe amar

And now I realizeY ahora me doy cuenta
You are my answerTú eres mi respuesta
How could I be so cruelCómo pude ser tan cruel
To have you and not look at youDe tenerte y no mirarte
I hope it's not too lateOjalá no sea tarde
To love you this timePara amarte esta vez
