Amor De Barrio

It all started 5 years ago, since I moved
To this new neighborhood, leaving my life behind,
Forgetting my past, starting from scratch,
With my family fighting and looking for new friends.

Loneliness took me by the hand, complaining and cursing,
Looking for a way out to not be tired,
Screaming, crying, angry inside,
I went out to catch my breath to not be agonizing.

Until I saw you pass by, with your angelic face,
Princess attempt, you made me dream,
I wanted to ask you, 'What's your name?'
I didn't have the guts, guess I'm just another coward.

My deepest dream, I want to confess
That when I saw you pass by, I wanted to hug you right away,
Holding hands, walking through the square,
I had to back off, your family looks at me badly.

I saw you, desired you, looked for you and talked to you,
Now that I have you, I will never let you go,
I promise to be faithful to you, I will always be by your side,
Through rain and storms, I will protect you,
Your neighbor, boyfriend, and confidant, that will be me,
The one who knows your secrets and mine too,
Forever and always, I will take care of our love,
Queen of my heart, promise that I will never fail.

Even if my friends say I'm too much for you,
I want you to know that I will never give up,
My heart will break, but you will remain in it,
In memories and moments of when I was happy.

This feeling travels when love is spoken of,
Minutes don't matter, words are more than enough,
Talking only about you fills my heart
With joys and shared emotions.

I remember the first time, when we crossed paths,
You were very beautiful, I can't deny it,
You are and will be the most beautiful in this neighborhood,
I am more than satisfied to live by your side.

We swore eternal love and we are achieving it,
The neighbors already suspect that we are up to something strange,
But I don't care, I will continue to be by your side,
And I never tire of telling you how much I love you.

I saw you, desired you, looked for you and talked to you,
Now that I have you, I will never let you go,
I promise to be faithful to you, I will always be by your side,
Through rain and storms, I will protect you,
Your neighbor, boyfriend, and confidant, that will be me,
The one who knows your secrets and mine too,
Forever and always, I will take care of our love,
Queen of my heart, promise that I will never fail.
