Tal Vez Por Nada
Cheo Feliciano
Maybe For Nothing
She's my only support when life corners me
She encourages me to spread the short flight of my wings
She pushes me to keep going when exhaustion stabs me
And you still ask me why I love her
If it seems maybe for nothing
She has lost with me the youth in her gaze
I know her body aged between my untied hands
She has suffered more than me, adversity always silent
And you still ask me why I love her
If it seems maybe for nothing
And you are just the illusion that crossed my path
In an unexpected way
The gust of wind that ignited an old passion's fire
For a night of escape
How did you come to imagine
That one day I could leave her to follow you on the path
Why do you force me to choose when you know too well
That I am tied to her destiny
She's not as beautiful as you anymore but she also had your years
You only put youth on the scale of this deception
But in the art of love, experience is important
And tenderness and patience, that appearance is the least
And you are just the illusion that crossed my path
In an unexpected way
The gust of wind that ignited an old passion's fire
For a night of escape
How did you come to imagine
That one day I could leave her to follow you on the path
Why do you force me to choose when you know too well
That I am tied to her destiny
