Barcos de papel

Paper Boats
An eclipse of silences,
A sunset in any cafe,
My words have no owner,
Who wants to understand them...
Wanderer of desires...
Captain without faith in "paper boats"...
Whirlwind of thoughts,
When I see the sunrise...
And how lonely the waves are left,
When the sun runs out,
And how lonely I've stayed waiting for you,
Seeking your forgiveness...
I didn't know what to say when I saw you there,
Looking at me without paying attention,
I didn't know what to say, in love with you.
I'm passing the hours...
I didn't know what to say or where to turn,
Perhaps a woman deserves your forgiveness,
I have nowhere to go and in love with you,
My heart is drowning...
I don't want your 'I love yous',
If they are made of paper, 'paper boats'.
I already carry your memory,
Stuck in my skin...
I pay the price without money,
Come and look into my sensibility,
I don't deserve to be your owner nor to lose you...
And how lonely the waves are left...
I didn't know what to say...
Now I sail dodging ports of resentments,
I'll cross the seven seas if necessary for you,
In 'paper boats'...
I didn't know what to say...
I am the owner of my doubts,
At least I have that...
