Sombras Nada Mas
Héctor Lavoe
Just Shadows
I'd like to slowly open my veins
To pour all my blood at your feet
To show you
That I can't love anymore
And then, die afterwards
And yet, your blue eyes
Blue like the sky and the sea
Stay closed to me
Not seeing that I'm here
Lost in my loneliness
Just shadows, caressing my hands
Just shadows, in the trembling of my voice
I could have been happy, and I'm dying in life
And living among tears
The most horrendous passage of this endless drama
Just shadows between your life and my life
Just shadows between your love and my love
How brief was your presence in my boredom
How warm were your hands, your voice
Like a firefly, your light came
And dissipated the shadows in my corner
And I remained trembling like an elf
Without the blue of your sea-like eyes
That have closed to me, not seeing that I'm here
Lost in my loneliness
Just shadows, caressing my hands
Just shadows, in the trembling of my voice
I could have been happy, and I'm dying in life
And living among tears
The most horrendous passage
Of this endless drama
Just shadows between your life and my life
Just shadows between your love and my love
