Sombras
Duquende
Shadows
I learned from an almond tree
That appearances can be deceiving
The flowers were so white
That the almonds turned bitter
Just like your love did
You reap what you sow, you know
And you, who’ve sown so much
Now go on, face the storms
Oh, the pain, oh my pain
For you, I tip my hat
I’ll give you a couple of flowers
So you can wear them in your hair
Matching your sweet scents
Shadows I see of your love
The sun lights them up
So I can’t see them
No, no, no
I walk by your door
You’ve lost your mind
Don’t try to convince me
You’ve lost your head
And with it, your innocence
That once made me fall for you
At the door of my mind
There’s a memory I can’t forget
Where I get lost
When I can’t take it anymore
To keep living in this solitude
At the foot of a lemon tree
I fell asleep under the moon
Caressing my face
The sun woke me up
Around mid-morning
Oh, where will I end up?
Last night I saw my center
Now I don’t know where it is
Shadows I see of your love...
