El Llanto de Un Rey

If you sang those anthems of my life
If you could fall in love with my sad song
You wouldn't think of leaving, wouldn't dim my light
Nor seek refuge in the nights, my endless nights

If you sang those beautiful verses
If you magnified that throne I wanted to give you
You wouldn't wish to break my poor soul and go on
So many displays of being so loved, I've already forgotten

I'm a king and I gave you my shields
As the star of David shone in Jerusalem
And I engraved your name on my skin

I'm king of my faithless castles
Who killed the illusion, I know you're leaving perhaps
But you'll never return, you'll never return
You'll never return

I invented a pedestal
I invented a heart that would love you
The princess is leaving, what did I do?
Why are you leaving me?

Poor king, there's no longer tears to heal his sorrow
Poor king, there's no longer tears to heal his sorrow

If you sang my prayers to my sky
If you wanted to come back and start anew
I wouldn't have to explain living so alone without you
And my stories would remain lost, I smiled again

If you sang my songs to the breeze
If you enriched this kingdom with a smile
You couldn't forget that happy October
When you arrived, I had been waiting a thousand years for you

I'm king and my carriages, I left them at your spring
I drank from your chest the flow, put my shadow at your feet
I'm king of a colorless city and a paper maiden
I don't know why so much love died, now it's my turn to lose
And now it's my turn to lose, now it's my turn to lose

I invented a pedestal
I invented a heart that would love you
The princess is leaving, what did I do?
Why are you leaving me?

Poor king, there's no longer tears to heal his sorrow
Poor king, there's no longer tears to heal his sorrow
Poor king, there's no longer tears to heal his sorrow
Poor king, there's no longer tears to heal his sorrow
