Bello Espejismo
Gerardo Gomez
Beautiful Mirage
Many times I have told you
That I need you
That if you're not with me
My end is near
That your absence is too long
And my nights are eternal
Waiting for dawn
To see that you're not here
Every time I go to the park
And couples kiss
It seems like you're close
And I see you coming back
How I envy lovers
When I see them happy
But I remain so sad
That I only think of crying
Months and weeks went by
Waiting to see if one day you call me
Playing guitar, I started drinking
And empty bottles were left
And then what I suspected happened
I fell asleep and dreamt of you
Hand in hand we walked
And we drifted away from the crowd
Arriving at the room of an old motel
And when you were taking off your clothes
I dropped the glass from my hand
And the moment I woke up was sad
Come back to me, I need you
My soul calls you and the cry that
Springs forth is pure pain, come back to me
I'm waiting for you
Don't delay
Come back, my love
Time keeps passing
And I'm just as sad
And your photo that shone
I erased with my kisses
Hoping you'll call me
And tell me you're coming back
And crying with sadness
Because I can't see you
Sometimes I close my eyes
And think you're close
And I even believe you're calling me
Saying you're coming back
And my head fills
With hope and fantasy
Then I keep dreaming
Of what can never be
Months and weeks keep passing
Waiting to see if one day you call me
Playing guitar, I start drinking
Empty bottles keep piling up
Some songs without melody
And my heart screams to see you
My life continues on the edge of an abyss
Thinking you're my beautiful mirage
I'm close to going crazy
Come back to me, I need you
My soul calls you and the cry that
Springs forth is pure pain
Come back to me, I'm waiting for you
Don't delay
Come back, my love
