Melodía Perdida
José Luis Perales
Lost Melody
I strive, as always
to find the melody
that is asleep
I don't know, in what place.
And I think of your gaze,
and I am surprised
when the singular word
escapes from my lips.
I love you, I love you,
I love you, I love you.
Because you are my melody,
my verses and my fantasy,
the voice of my guitar
and everything else.
the beach where desire goes,
the prison that holds me captive,
the water that feeds the kiss
and love.
Because you are my melody,
my verses and my fantasy,
the voice of my guitar
and everything else.
the beach where desire goes,
the prison that holds me captive,
the water that feeds the kiss
and love.
Sometimes I have wanted to be freer
and I have searched in another sky
a place to fly.
And I think of your smile
and I regret
and I stay in the attempt
and fail one more day.
I love you, I love you,
I love you, I love you.
Because you are my melody,
my verses and my fantasy,
the voice of my guitar
and everything else.
the beach where desire goes,
the prison that holds me captive,
the water that feeds the kiss
and love.
(Repeat)
