Me Vas a Matar

You're Going to Kill Me

Me Vas a Matar

Today I found on your balconyHoy encontré en tu balcón
I found the reasonEncontré la razón
To tell you wordsPa' decirte palabras
And it was a beautiful illusionY era una linda ilusión
I give myself hopeDe esperanzas me doy
To penetrate your soulDe calar en tu alma

When you promisedCuando tú prometiste
That you gave everythingQue todo lo dabas
That you would give everythingQue todo darías

I was left speechlessMe quedé sin palabras
You said nothingNo dijiste nada
I would say nothingYo nada diría

Like a ship that runs agroundComo barco que encalla
Which sail goes outCuál vela se apaga
My life goes outSe apaga mi vida

However, I harboredSin embargo, abrigaba
That one day you would reactQue un día reaccionaras
That it was just a trickQue eran picardía

But remember that she was a breezePero recuerda que ella era brisa
You were a desert, manTú eras desierto hombe'
And of the turns that life takesY de las vueltas que da la vida
I don't understand themNo las comprendo

If the Sun of the camellias shone on youSi el Sol de las camelias te alumbraba
Why do you want to destroy the nestPor que quieres el nido derrumbar

They say you want to walk awayDicen que quieres caminar
That if one day things go wrongQue si un día le va mal
Maybe she'll come back herePueda que vuelva aquí

Sadly, I will wait for herTriste yo la voy a esperar
She won't get farLejos no ha de llegar
She doesn't breathe without meNo respira sin mí

Look, look at the boys where they goMira mira los muchachos ha'onde van
Causing envy as they pass byQue causan envidia al pasar
Where did the feeling goDonde quedo el sentimiento

And you're going to kill meY tú me vas a matar
You're going to finish meMe vas a acabar

And I don't want to be left aloneY yo no quiero quedarme solo
And I don't want to be left aloneY yo no quiero quedarme solo

I already have my little houseYo tengo ya la casita
And I don't want to be left aloneY yo no quiero quedarme solo

I asked a hummingbirdLe pregunté a un chupaflor
How he dealt with the flowerComo hacía con la flor
That was killing himQue lo estaba matando

He told me he woke up earlyMe dijo que madrugo
That he sang on his balconyQué canto en su balcón
That his years had passedQue pasaron sus años

I insisted, sensingYo insistí presintiendo
That it wasn't my caseQue no era mi caso
That she would returnQue si volvería

I sailed in failureNavegue en el fracaso
My years are the sameIgual son mis años
As barren landsCual tierras baldías

I refused to understand herMe negué a comprenderla
I thought, I sworePensaba juraba
That she also sufferedQue también sufría

And she left flatteredY se fue lisonjera
Without even lookingSin mirar siquiera
At my empty handsMis manos vacías

But remember that every JanuaryPero recuerda que en cada enero
I'll be your shadow, manSeré tu sombra hombe'

I was your starYo fui tu estrella
Why do you deny itPorque lo niegas
If I was your moldSi fui tu horma

We must ask heavenHay que pedirle al cielo
For a little placeUn puestecito
If you in your legal formSi tú en tu forma legal
Will never enterNunca entrarás

They say you want to come backDicen que quieres regresar
That they have seen you cryQue te han visto llorar
Asking for mePreguntando por mí

Sadly, I'm afraid to startTriste me da miedo empezar
Because it could happen that you leave againPorque puede pasar que te vuelvas a ir

Look, look at the boys where they goMira mira los muchachos ha'onde van
Causing envy as they pass byQue causan envidia al pasar
Where did the feeling goDonde quedo el sentimiento

And you're going to kill meY tú me vas a matar
You're going to finish meMe vas a acabar

And I don't want to be left aloneY yo no quiero quedarme solo
And I don't want to be left aloneY yo no quiero quedarme solo

I already have my little houseYo tengo ya la casita
And I don't want to be left aloneY yo no quiero quedarme solo

And I don't want to be left aloneY yo no quiero quedarme solo
And I don't want to be left aloneY yo no quiero quedarme solo
