Hola y Adiós

[Part 1 - Hello]

Hello, let me introduce myself
I hope my smile covers what I carry inside
That you don't notice my torment
That you're not to blame for what they did to me a long time ago

Just seeing you has made me happy
I want you to think I'm someone who lives in the moment
I'll try to be perfect, even though these fears prevent me from giving you all I have

I have a thousand different questions prepared
I seek to surprise you, I don't want to be like the rest
If I tremble, it's because I doubt between being cocky or modest
Being myself has gone so wrong that I swear I shrink

And you are so, I don't know how to do this
I can invite you to something, I'll pay and that way I'll loosen up
What do you want to drink, I'll bring it to you
Tell me about your life, I'll be attentive

Tell me your dreams, tell me your fantasies
Tell me your sorrows, tell me your joys
Maybe mine are similar, maybe I'm finally the person you deserve
Sometimes I don't know

People connect suddenly
And find in others what they always wanted to find
I'm not saying I'm that person
But my nerves are fading every time you blush

How many hours have we been talking
How many hours smiling, how many hours listening
Don't ask me to dance, I'll lose my charm
I also like how you kiss, even if I don't say it often

I'm a soft fool, thinking inside if this is real or I'm dreaming
You know I've been trembling since I saw you in line
I think I liked you before saying:
Hello

[Part 2 - Goodbye]

I never said goodbye
I swear that day I couldn't find the words for you
I was looking for the right ones, but couldn't find them
It was like climbing the hill where there's lava

But I was happy with you, maybe you were a shelter
Maybe your belly button my enchanted house
Maybe I couldn't explain that I die without you
Maybe I covered my mouth and you didn't see me smile

But I did, joy overwhelmed me
One doesn't always get what they wanted
I remember the metro, Gran Vía
The Christmas lights decorating every corner

My down coat, the line of your eyes
My rum, your Puerto de Indias with red fruits
Before I looked at you sideways like a God
Now what I look at are your photos
Goodbye

And you know I'll be here
After meeting you where else will I go
I don't know a place that makes me happy
That doesn't go from your legs to your nose

And you know I'll be here
After meeting you where else will I go
I don't know a place that makes me happy
That doesn't go from your legs to your nose

I never said goodbye
I swear I did it in a letter I never gave you
I wanted to explore every corner of your body
But Madrid is too big for a small-town boy

Do you remember how you hugged me?
Do you remember the voice you used when you called?
You seemed like an excited girl, and you were
And so was I but I always kept quiet

Today I torture myself with that
I can't go back, but writing to you lightens the burden
I forgot to be fun and more mischievous
I was so nervous that I failed, I confess

But that's in the past, like you and me in the mirror
Taking photos of ourselves without complexes
The first swallows that learned to fly in pairs
Now fly alone
Goodbye

Goodbye and thank you for every second
Goodbye my world, goodbye my path, my madness
Today I lie down where I used to kiss you in the dark
Happy that you made me believe again at this stage

You owe me nothing and neither do I to you
Love doesn't always win, especially when it's between crazies
But thank you for the shared journey
I promise to remember you and always be grateful

But now let me cry
Or are you going to tell me what to do until the end
Let me cry at least before jumping
Off the cliff that comes from imagining you won't return

Let me cry I said
It's like someone dies, but there's no body or grave
Because they're alive and left because they wanted to
But you have to miss them like a deceased

And you know I'll be here
After meeting you where else will I go
I don't know a place that makes me happy
That doesn't go from your legs to your nose

And you know I'll be here
After meeting you where else will I go
I don't know a place that makes me happy
That doesn't go from your legs to your nose

And you know I'll be here
After meeting you where else will I go
I don't know a place that makes me happy
That doesn't go from your legs to your nose

And you know I'll be here
After meeting you where else will I go
I don't know a place that makes me happy
That doesn't go from your legs to your nose

Goodbye
