La Libreta

I had a notebook to write my days with you
The wine in the afternoon, Saturdays in the park, and kisses when it's cold
I had to write down every step on the way
Always as night fell, while you snuggled up, I noted your heartbeats
And maybe always tell you, I missed a blank page
When I least expected it, you had already been erasing every page with me

I'm not going to keep your suitcase
I'm not going to hold the door for you
And I'm not going to leave it open for you to come back
If you leave, if you leave, it will bloom
If you leave, if you leave, it will bloom

I kept every photo of our shared trips
Your smile and those eyes that assured me I was happy with me
And I never questioned the words from your mouth
There were many early mornings when you approached me, undressing me
And now it seems strange that everything that had been
The reasons for loving me are the same that today become the reasons for you leaving

I'm not going to keep your suitcase
I'm not going to hold the door for you
And I'm not going to leave it open for you to come back
If you leave, if you leave, it will bloom
If you leave, if you leave, it will bloom

(Hey, see how life blooms again)
(Hey, see how life blooms again)
Remove the rope or change the cord
(Hey, see how life blooms again)
There's no wound that remains open
(Hey, see how life blooms again)
I release the resentment, I throw it to the wind
I don't hold you back, I know you're leaving, I know you're leaving
I release the resentment, I throw it to the wind
I don't hold you back, I know you're leaving, I know you're leaving

If you leave, if you leave, it will bloom
If you leave, if you leave, it will bloom
