Melancolia (Saudade)
Como quisiera que lo nuestro
Hubiera sido diferente
Y que no fuera un acertijo de palabras
Que jamás me han dicho nada
Así que nada me reclames
Y si me encuentras y aun me amas
Dime si todo lo que hubo entre los dos
Se ha convertido en tus locas manías
Alegría de vivir el agua contra el viento
Que se va melancolía
Cosa más bella, si tú volvieras
Como pretendes que pase la vida entera
Como si nada pasara y que va a ser de mi
Si encuentro manera para olvidar la vida entera
Como pretendes que borre de mi toda prueba
Como si fuera tan fácil perderse en el mar
Guardarlo en la arena
Como si fuera, cosa cualquiera
Como si fuera, cosa cualquiera
Como quisiera que lo nuestro
Hubiera sido diferente
Melancholy (Saudade)
I wish that what we had could be like this
It would have been different
And that it wasn't a word puzzle
They've never said anything to me
So don't complain to me about anything
And if you find me and still love me
Tell me if everything that happened between the two of us
It's become your crazy obsessions
Joy of living, water against the wind
Melancholy fades away
What a beautiful thing, if you would return
How do you expect me to spend my whole life?
As if nothing happened, and what will become of me?
If I find a way to forget my whole life
How do you expect me to erase all evidence from myself?
As if it were so easy to get lost at sea
Store it in the sand
As if it were just any old thing
As if it were just any old thing
I wish that what we had could be like this
It would have been different
