Ausencia
Héctor Lavoe
Absence
Another chapter has ended in my life
The woman I loved has left me today
Waiting, night and day
And she can't decide to come back
But I know she will return
And if not, I will die of sorrow
What I did
That made you leave
I don't know if with time
This wound will heal
There was no reason
To end
I've tried to forget her
But still, I remember her more
Don't be surprised
If you see a man crying
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
The day you left
I stayed sad, crying
Oh, come back, I beg you
Because of your love, I swear, I'm killing myself
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
Hey, I saw a man cry in front of a mirror
For a love that heaven denied him
And I was amazed, I shivered
Seeing in the mirror, my own face
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
Hey, and I will keep waiting
Until the day I die
If God takes away the moon, I won't feel bad
But if He takes me to you, He takes the stars
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
(Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting)
Hey, twenty years are nothing
If you like breaking a coconut
I swear to you by my mother, something good
That if you don't come back, I will go crazy
Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting
Your absence doesn't matter, I keep waiting
