Ansias de Amor
Carlos Gardel
Longing for Love
Sometimes when I think I’m living all alone
Life without your love feels like a damn cross to bear
And in the midst of this pain that fuels my desires
I swear I can see your charming face right there
When I find myself so lonely, I remember those days
When your soul and mine swore to share our passion
And even though I know you’re gone, sometimes I sense you
Your breath offers me comfort, tender relief from my pain
Let me imagine that one day not too far away
The touch of your hand
Will brush against my face
And that your sweet lips
Will rest upon my forehead
To make my faith in the future
Burn even brighter
I’ve torn up that letter where you said
You’d never come back to give me your love
I ripped it up because I think this love of mine
Will forgive the betrayal of your cold, cruel soul
The thought of you haunts me every single moment
And anxiously, trembling, I wait for you without end
And I hope that you’ll return, because I love you so much
That I can’t calm my sorrow through my tears.
