Si te hubiera conocido ayer
José Alfredo Fuentes
If I had met you yesterday
Late, as always,
love comes into my life,
the train escapes me
and the departing ship
and I remain seated,
looking at the bay.
Nothing is impossible,
but loving you is more than madness;
it's hating time and cursing my luck,
because I can't see you, because you're not with me
and it's slowly dying, every day,
because I know you love me and you'll never be mine.
If I had met you yesterday,
I would have made you my wife.
If I had met you yesterday,
you wouldn't be living with him.

If I had met you yesterday,
