Dear Dove

Paloma Querida

For the day you came into my lifePor el día que llegaste a mi vida
My dear Paloma, I started to toastPaloma querida, me puse a brindar
And feeling a little tipsyY al sentirme un poquito tomado
Thinking of your lips made me want to singPensando en tus labios me dio por cantar
I felt superior to everyoneMe sentí superior a cualquiera
And I wanted to bring you down a fistful of starsY un puño de estrellas te quise bajar
And seeing that none of them reachedY al mirar que ninguna alcanzaba
It made me so angry that I wanted to cryMe dio tanta rabia que quise llorar
I don't know what my life is worthYo no sé lo que valga mi vida
But I want to give it to youPero yo te la quiero entregar
I don't know if your love will receive itYo no sé si tu amor la reciba
But I've come to leave it for youPero yo te la vengo a dejar

You found me on a dark roadMe encontraste en un negro camino
Like a pilgrim without direction or faithComo un peregrino sin rumbo ni fe
And the light of your divine eyesY la luz de tus ojos divinos
They exchanged my sorrows for joy and pleasureCambiaron mis penas por dicha y placer
Since then I feel like I love youDesde entonces yo siento quererte
With all the strength my soul gives meCon todas las fuerzas que el alma me da
Since then, dear doveDesde entonces, paloma querida
I have exchanged my chest for a dovecoteMi pecho he cambiado por un palomar
I don't know what my life is worthYo no sé lo que valga mi vida
But I want to give it to youPero yo te la quiero entregar
I don't know if your love will receive itYo no sé si tu amor la reciba
But I've come to leave it for youPero yo te la vengo a dejar
