La Barca

The Boat

La Barca

They say that distance is forgetfulnessDícen que la distancia es el olvido
But I don't conceive that reasonPero yo no concibo esa razón
Because I will continue to be the captivePorque yo seguiré siendo el cautivo
Of the whims of your heartDe los caprichos de tu corazón
You knew how to clarify my thoughtsSupiste esclarecer mis pensamientos
You gave me the truth I dreamed ofMe diste la verdad que yo soñe
You drove away my sufferingsAhuyentaste de mi los sufrimientos
On the first night that I loved youEn la primera noche que te amé
Today my beach is dressed in bitternessHoy mi playa se viste de amargura
Because your boat has to departPorque tu barca tiene que partir
To cross other seas of madnessA cruzar otros mares de locura
Take care that your life doesn't shipwreckCuida que no naufrague tu vivir
When the sunlight is fadingCuando la luz del sol se esté apagando
And you feel tired of wanderingY te sientas cansada de vagar
Think that I will be waiting for youPiensa que yo por ti estaré esperando
Until you decide to returnHasta que tu decidas regresar
