Gavilán O Paloma

You kept looking, you were alone
Completely beautiful and sensual
Something swept me towards you like a wave
And I went and said to you: Hello, how are you?

That night in your arms, I fell into the trap
You caught the apprentice seducer
And you fed me on your palm
Making myself your humble servant

Friend
You have to see what love is like
That returns to whoever takes it
Sparrowhawk or Dove
Poor fool, naive charlatan
I was a dove for wanting to be a hawk

Friend
You have to see what love is like
That returns to whoever takes it
Sparrowhawk or Dove

I slowly lowered your dress
And you didn't even let me speak
You just sighed: I need you
Hold me tighter, tighter

Looking at you I felt disappointed
Only your warmth made me cold
I slowly let you go from my arms
And I said: Please be still

Friend
You have to see what love is like
That returns to whoever takes it
Sparrowhawk or Dove
Poor fool, naive charlatan
I was a dove for wanting to be a hawk

Friend
You have to see what love is like
That returns to whoever takes it
Sparrowhawk or Dove
Poor fool, naive charlatan
I was a dove for wanting to be a hawk
