La Barca

The Boat

La Barca

They say that distance is forgetfulnessDicen que la distancia es el olvido
But I do not conceive this reasonPero yo no concibo esta razón
Because I will continue to be the captivePorque yo seguiré siendo el cautivo
Of the whims of your heartDe los caprichos de tu corazón

You knew how to clarify my thoughtsSupiste esclarecer mis pensamientos
You gave me the truth I dreamed ofMe diste la verdad que yo soñé
You drove away my sorrowsAhuyentaste de mí los sufrimientos
On the first night that I loved youEn la primera noche que te amé

Today, my beach is dressed in bitterness, ohHoy, mi playa se viste de amargura, oh
Because your boat has to departPorque tu barca tiene que partir
To cross other seas of madnessA cruzar otros mares de locura
Make sure it doesn't shipwreck in your lifeCuida que no naufrague en tu vivir

When the sunlight is fadingCuando la luz del Sol se esté apagando
And you feel tired of wanderingY te sientas cansada de vagar
Think that I will be waiting for youPiensa que yo, por ti, estaré esperando
Until you decide to returnHasta que tú decidas regresar

You knew how to clarify my thoughtsSupiste esclarecer mis pensamientos

(Until you decide to return)(Hasta que tú decidas regresar)
