Y Te Vas
José Luis Perales
And You Leave
I gave you, I gave you my smile,
my hours of love,
my sunny days,
my April sky.
I gave you my warmth, my flower.
I gave you my pain.
I gave you my truth, my self.
I gave you what I was.
I offered you the skin of my hands,
my best time,
my humble corner,
my nights without you,
my life and my freedom
and a little bit of love.
What little I was, my love,
what little I was.
And you leave, be happy.
You will forget what I was
and I in my window will see the morning dress in gray.
And you leave, be happy.
You will forget what I was
and I in my window will see the morning dress in gray.
I gave you the light of my eyes,
my honeyed hours,
my tears of ice,
my breath,
the light of my dawn,
my firewood and my home,
the song of my sparrow
and a little bread.
And you leave, be happy.
You will forget what I was
and I in my window will see the morning dress in gray.
And you leave, be happy.
You will forget what I was
and I in my window will see the morning dress in gray.
