Barco de Papel

My great love, we are two sad boats
That always sail in strong waves
Because we follow different courses
One goes south and the other goes north

Where we are going, there is no port
For the sea of life, we are outlaws
Two condemned to die of love
In the storm of fate

I am lost and so are you
We both cry with longing
It's no use sailing far away
When happiness is so close

We are trapped by the commitment
That honor itself demands we fulfill
But what our hearts desire
Our lips cannot ask for

In my nights of cruel revolt
I feel a crying heart inside
But the clock of time has struck
Our meeting so out of time

I saw myself lost in the sea of life
Facing the cruel wave
We will never reach the port
Because our boat is made of paper

We will never reach the port
Because our boat is made of paper
