Como La Palma de Mi Mano
Horacio Palencia
Like the Palm of My Hand
Oh, how I wish I could be
More than your tear-soaked cloth
More than your weekend buddy
More than your counselor when someone hurts you.
Oh, how I wish I could be more than just a good friend
And I know every part of you
What makes you cry and what makes you laugh.
Your flaws, your virtues
I know everything about you
Your favorite food
I know the clothes you like
And your fear of heights...
If I know you better than the palm of my hand
Then tell me why you haven't loved me.
If I've been your refuge through your failures
And good company, but that's as far as it goes.
And it hurts me to know
That I truly love you.
While on the other hand
You get tangled up with anyone.
I can't hide that I love you like no one else
And please don't say I should just shut up.
If I have so much to tell you
It doesn't matter if you see me sad.
I couldn't stand being silent for even one more second, that I love you so much I have to tell you...
If I know you better than the palm of my hand
Then tell me why you haven't loved me.
If I've been your refuge through your failures
And good company, but that's as far as it goes.
And it hurts me to know
That I truly love you.
While on the other hand
You get tangled up with anyone.
I can't hide that I love you like no one else
And please don't say I should just shut up.
If I have so much to tell you
It doesn't matter if you see me sad.
I couldn't stand being silent for even one more second, that I love you so much I have to tell you.
