Volvió Una Noche
Julio Sosa
She Returned One Night
She returned one night, I wasn't expecting her,
There was so much anxiety on her face
That I was afraid to remind her
Of her treachery and cruelty
She said humbly: 'if you forgive me,
The old times will come back again.
The spring is our life,
You'll see that everything will smile at us'
Lie, lie, I wanted to tell her,
The hours that pass will not return.
And so my love linked to yours
Is just a ghost of the old past
That can no longer be resurrected.
I kept my bitterness silent and had pity.
Her blue eyes, very wide, opened,
They soon understood my unheard-of sorrow
And with a defeated woman's grimace
She said: 'it's life'. And I never saw her again.
She returned one night, I never forget her,
With a sad and lightless gaze.
I was afraid of that specter
That was madness in my youth.
She left silently, without reproach,
I looked for a mirror and wanted to look at myself.
There were so many winters on my forehead
That she also had pity.
Lie, lie, I wanted to tell her,
The hours that pass will not return.
And so my love linked to yours
Is just a ghost of the old past
That can no longer be resurrected.
I kept my bitterness silent and had pity.
Her blue eyes, very wide, opened,
They soon understood my unheard-of sorrow
And with a defeated woman's grimace
She said: 'it's life'. And I never saw her again.
