Lejos de La Tristeza

When one morning I am gone,
You won't have a memory of me,
Just an empty space on the pillow,
Where you can bury your forgetfulness.

You will swim in names,
And you will pass over mine,
Like someone walking a path,
So many times traveled.

Dream far from sadness,
Dream far from pain,
As if it had never happened,
And you still had your heart intact.

When one morning I am gone,
Don't even pronounce my name,
Because I was never here,
And you never knew me,
No one you loved caused you pain,
And no man loved you too much,
No one took you away from the world,
To have you by their side.

Dream far from sadness,
Dream far from pain,
As if it had never happened,
And you still had your heart intact.

Dream far from sadness,
Dream far from pain,
As if it had never happened,
And you still had your heart intact.

When one morning I am gone,
Don't say goodbye to me.
