Disillusion of a Woman
It was yesterday that my love was born happy for you
But today without mercy you break my world
When you hurt, you leave my soul in agony
With pain, no hope or faith
I suffer great humiliation from family and all these people
They call me a street woman, as if I was always on the street
But I endure all with the strength of feelings
Because you let me lose the fight
It was yesterday that my love was born happy for you
But today without mercy you break my world
When you hurt, you leave my soul in agony
With pain, no hope or faith
I suffer great humiliation from family and all these people
They call me a street woman, as if I was always on the street
But I endure all with the strength of feelings
Because you let me lose the fight
So, I ask the sea
To take me so I won't return
To live isolated
In a world of darkness that doesn't remember my lost love
Oh God, give my soul some peace
I won't hurt anyone because it's me who suffers
Help me see reality
Ease this pain so I can live a new life
So, I ask the sea
To take me so I won't return
To live isolated
In a world of darkness that doesn't remember my lost love
Oh God, give my soul some peace
I won't hurt anyone because it's me who suffers
Help me see reality
Ease this pain so I can live a new life
Oh God, give my soul some peace
I won't hurt anyone because it's me who suffers
Help me see reality
Ease this pain
I also have the right to be happy
Here on earth
