Clarissa

Clarissa

I was lost in a voiceless placeYo perdido en un lugar sin voz
A stranger in my own skinUn extraño en mi propia piel
And you arrived like a minor SunY llegaste como un Sol menor
With your laughter you shattered yesterdayCon tu risa derrumbaste el ayer

You, barely eighteen years oldTú, con apenas dieciocho años
You made me forget my painMe hiciste olvidar mis daños

Clarissa, you were heaven in my painClarissa, fuiste cielo en mi dolor
A flash of lightning, a burst of heatUn relámpago, un calor
Although time broke usAunque el tiempo nos quebró
Your memory never fadedTu recuerdo nunca se apagó

Clarissa, you taught me how to breatheClarissa, me enseñaste a respirar
You knew how to shine in my shadowsEn mis sombras supiste brillar
And although it all endedY aunque todo terminó
Something of you remained in my soulEn mi alma algo tuyo quedó

They were short days, but they felt like an eternityFueron días cortos, pero eternos
Your hugs were my universeTus abrazos eran mi universo
I felt younger just from looking at youFui más joven solo por mirarte
I felt alive just from kissing youSentí vida solo por besarte

And although the ending hurt usY aunque el final nos hizo mal
There was never any hatred, only peaceNunca hubo odio, solo paz

Clarissa, you were heaven in my painClarissa, fuiste cielo en mi dolor
A flash of lightning, a burst of heatUn relámpago, un calor
Although time broke usAunque el tiempo nos quebró
Your memory never fadedTu recuerdo nunca se apagó

Clarissa, you taught me how to breatheClarissa, me enseñaste a respirar
You knew how to shine in my shadowsEn mis sombras supiste brillar
And although it all endedY aunque todo terminó
Something of you remained in my soulEn mi alma algo tuyo quedó

Today I smile when I remember youHoy sonrío al recordarte
Without chains to bind meSin cadenas para atarme
We were fire, we were truthFuimos fuego, fuimos verdad
And your name doesn't go awayY tu nombre no se va

Clarissa, you were heaven in my painClarissa, fuiste cielo en mi dolor
A flash of lightning, a burst of heatUn relámpago, un calor
Although time broke usAunque el tiempo nos quebró
Your memory never fadedTu recuerdo nunca se apagó
