Aroma de Mujer

Scent of a Woman

Aroma de Mujer

I who always had a faithful convictionYo que siempre tuve una fiel convicción
That love would never come to meQue a mi jamás llegaría el amor
I never imagined it could happen to meNo imaginé, me pudiera pasar
It was on a feverish moonlit nightFue, en una noche de luna febril
When I gave my soul and my beingCuando entregué mi alma y mi ser
And my skin clung to hersY se aferró mi piel a su piel
And so, I found myself wrapped in her skin, a springY así, me fui envolviendo en su piel, manantial
I shipwrecked in her body, I got lost in her seaNaufragué en su cuerpo, me perdí en su mar
And I remained anchored to that desire to loveY quedé anclada a esas ganas, de amar
I died, at dawn it vanished and I understoodMorí, al clarear se esfumó y comprendí
That if there's something worse than dyingQue si hay algo peor que morir
It's being without youEso es estar sin ti
Yes, I still hold her essence in my beingSí aún conservo su esencia en mi ser
I carry the warmth of her body on my skinLlevo el calor, de su cuerpo en mi piel
And the fierceness of her mortal absenceY el fragor de su ausencia mortal
Yes, I should have traveled the whole worldSí todo el mundo debí recorrer
Trying to forget that loveIntentando ese amor olvidar
And not knowing how to achieve itY sin saber como poderlo lograr
