Un Recuerdo En El Olvido

A Memory in Oblivion

Un Recuerdo En El Olvido

That summer breezeAquella brisa de verano
Always hid some romance, a dreamSiempre escondía algún romance una ilusión
A way to learn through sufferingUna forma de aprender sufriendo
Because we always prefer the impossiblePorque siempre preferimos lo imposible
Out of reach, the dreamsInalcanzable, los sueños
I wanted to ask youYo te quería preguntar
If it was possible to reach the dreamSi era posible alcanzar el sueño
Of falling asleep next to you, flying highDe dormirme junto a ti volar muy alto
Let the sky wait for usQue el cielo nos espere
And for you to tell me you love me, whisperingY que me digas que me quieres susurrando

But I couldn'tPero no pude
I didn't have the strengthMe faltaron fuerzas
I was left speechless thinkingMe quede muda al pensar
That you could laugh at my inexperienceQue te podías reír de mi inexperiencia
At my painDe mi dolor
There were few witnessesFueron pocos testigos
I curse the two wordsMaldigo las dos palabras
That turned our storyQue hicieron de nuestra historia
Into a memory in oblivionUn recuerdo en el olvido

I was turning 18 and wearing a new dressCumplía yo los 18 y estrenaba vestido
I wasn't sure if you had already leftNo sabía con certeza si ya te habías ido
I searched among your friends, but I couldn't find youBusqué entre tus amigos, pero no te encontré
And someone came close, their breath smelled like youY alguien se acercó y su aliento olía a ti
The perfume and that accent that made me smileEl perfume y ese acento que me hacían sonreír
You asked me to dance, and like a fool, I gave inMe pediste bailar y como tonta cedí

And I couldn'tY no pude
I didn't have the strengthMe faltaron fuerzas
I was left speechless thinkingMe quede muda al pensar
That you could laugh at my inexperienceQue te podías reír de mi inexperiencia
At my painDe mi dolor
There were few witnessesFueron pocos testigos
I curse the two wordsMaldigo las dos palabras
That turned our storyQue hicieron de nuestra historia
Into a memory in oblivionUn recuerdo en el olvido

Three summers later, we met againTres veranos después nos volvimos a encontrar
Everything had changedYa todo había cambiado
I want to learn through loveYo quiero aprender amando
I wanted to tell him it was too lateQuise decirle que era tarde
That five kisses don't make up for so much hurtQue cinco besos no compensan tanto daño

But I couldn't, I didn't have the strengthPero no pude, me faltaron fuerzas
I wanted to let it go and smile and danceQuise dejarlo pasar y sonreír y bailar
With him the last songCon él la última pieza
Of my pain, he was never a witnessDe mi dolor él nunca fue testigo
That's why, among other thingsPor eso, entre otras cosas
This story is nothing moreEsta historia no es más
Than a memory in oblivionQue un recuerdo en el olvido
