Que Pensaba Yo

Compadre Gustavo Salcedo
And his lovely Paolita with affection

I know you don't really like vallenato
But to please me, you try to listen to it
I know our worlds are two different things
But here we are, oh

Here we are fully convinced
That what's meant for one simply arrives
And among the truths that my God has granted me
You are the most beautiful

And I don't know what will happen tomorrow
I'm loving you as you are, my queen
So madly captivated I am!
Wherever you say, I'll go!
Because you have a good soul!
Oh

I'm already feeling that I miss you so much
Wherever you go, I'm still yours
And don't doubt me
I believe in you
Oh my queen
Since I saw you
I could forget
My sorrows

And what was I thinking
I don't know what I was thinking, what I was thinking
I lost so much time in life
Instead of searching for you around the world

Don't leave me
Don't ever go away, please
Holy Week and Christmases
And even in carnivals
I'll be your pride

Before you, I wasn't myself
Before you, I wasn't myself
Oh my life!
Before you, I wasn't myself

And what was I thinking
I don't know what I was thinking, what I was thinking
I lost so much time in life
Instead of searching for you around the world, my love

Love forgives and heals mistakes
And every beat in our hearts
Our love is beautiful like the sun in the mornings
And the sunflowers

Just imagining it ending hurts
Because the truth is I don't want more loves
Never forget, you will always be the one I adore the most
Among women

I'm going to give you a slow kiss
I'm going to hug you tight while I dance
From top to bottom, I'm in love
I'm excited to live
Without you, my love, I'm worthless!

I'm already feeling that I miss you so much
Wherever you go, I'm still yours
And don't doubt me
I believe in you
Oh my queen
Since I saw you
I could forget
My sorrows

And what was I thinking
I don't know what I was thinking, what I was thinking
I lost so much time in life
Instead of searching for you around the world

Don't leave me
Don't ever go away, please
Holy Week and Christmases
And even in carnivals
I'll be your pride

Before you, I wasn't myself
Before you, I wasn't myself
Before you, I wasn't myself
