A Mi Lado

Prefer to do things my way
Even if you suffer, I know there will be a friend
The only being I go arm in arm with
Since I wasn't much more than two with you
And the worst part is that now I am less than one
Because half of me went into your chest
With that vile untimely comment
From an 'I love you' to passion, there is a long way to go

And I say
No, I wouldn't have preferred a lie
But neither the truth
It would have been enough for me to wake up one day
And find myself surrounded by loneliness
My 'I love you' wanted to build castles
But yours only had a wall
Your nonexistent or pocket passion
My passion past, present, and future
Past because I loved you from the beginning
Present because you keep me alive
Future because I will be waiting for you
Now I'm leaving but I repeat the refrain to you

And I say
No, I wouldn't have preferred a lie
But neither the truth
It would have been enough for me to wake up one day
And find myself surrounded by loneliness
No, no, no. I wouldn't have preferred a lie
But neither the truth
It would have been enough for me to wake up one day
And find myself surrounded by loneliness
