Que Diera

What I Would Give

Que Diera

It's been a long timeHa pasado mucho tiempo
Here in progressAquí en progreso
And I don't understandY es que no comprendo
The reason for your silenceLa razón de tu silencio

I've thought of you a lotTe he pensado mucho
And at night I sense youY en las noches te presiento
You went far awayTe fuiste muy lejos
And forgot about my kissesY te olvidaste de mis besos

I don't know exactlyNo sé muy bien
When the good things will comeCuando vendrán las cosas buenas
That today are bad newsQue hoy son malas noticias
Coming from the capitalLlegan de la capital

And once again I hearY otra vez se escuchan
All the old songsTodas las canciones viejas
I remember you a lotTe recuerdo mucho
When I sing them againCuando las vuelvo a cantar

What I would give to see you againQue diera por mirarte otra vez
What I would give to look at you againQue diera por volverte a mirar

I also tell youTambién te cuento
That it rains a lot at nightQue en las noches llueve mucho
That the moon doesn't come outQue la luna no sale
From its discontentDe su descontento

I send you greetingsTe mando saludos
To Rafa and ConsueloRafa y ta Consuelo
To Inocencia tristeQue Inocencia triste
I send you memoriesTe mando recuerdos

And they told meY a mí me dijeron
That I was going to meet GabitoQue iba a conocer a Gabito
That he's an important manQue ese es hombre importante
For humanityPa'la humanidad

I put on that suitMe puse aquel traje
That Enriquito gave meQue me regal Enriquito
But for the Nobel PrizePero al premio Nobel
Man! He has to travelHombe! Le toca viajar

What I would give to see you againQue diera por mirarte otra vez
What I would give to look at you againQue diera por volverte a mirar

And the time that has passedY el tiempo que ha pasado
Makes me thinkMe pone a pensar
That when two people love each otherQue cuando uno se quiere
They meet againSe vuelve a encontrar

And the time that has passedY el tiempo que ha pasado
Has taught me to understandMe ha enseñado a comprender
That in the land of oblivionQue en la tierra del olvido
I will love youTe voy a querer
