Gavilán O Paloma

Hawk or Dove

Gavilán O Paloma

You kept looking, you were aloneNo dejabas de mirar, estabas sola
Completely beautiful and sensualCompletamente bella y sensual
Something swept 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 on your palmY me diste de comer sobre tu palma
Making myself your humble servantHaciéndome tu humilde servidor

You have to see what love is likeHay que ver como es el amor
That returns to whoever takes itQue vuelve a quien lo toma
Sparrowhawk or DoveGavilán o paloma
Poor fool, naive charlatanPobre 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 even let me speakY tú no me dejaste ni hablar
You just sighed: I need youSolamente suspirabas: Te necesito
Hold me tighter, tighterAbrázame más fuerte, más

Looking at you I felt disappointedAl mirarte me sentí desengañado
Only your warmth made me coldSolo me dio frío tu calor
I slowly let you go from my armsLentamente te solté de entre mis brazos
And I said: Please be stillY dije: Estate quieta, por favor
