Cuando Digo Tu Nombre
Leonel García
When I Say Your Name
Better, I’ll stay away for a while
Until I feel the wind
Stops talking to me about you
Better not to remember your face
Because the pain never stops
When I think of you
Better not to ask anyone who you’re with
I don’t think I can take another wound
And one more wound
Better not to say your name anymore
So the past can’t catch up to me
And leave me locked in the dark
Better not to say your name anymore
Because it holds words, glances,
Moments, that live
Deep inside my loneliness
And I can’t hold on
Without starting to shake
When I say your name
Better, I won’t walk around the house
Because in the end, it always happens
That I feel like running away
Better, I won’t test myself anymore
That I make the abyss bigger
From which I want to escape
Better not to ask anyone who you’re with
I don’t think I can take another wound
And one more wound
Better not to say your name anymore
So the past can’t catch up to me
And leave me locked in the dark
Better not to say your name anymore
Because it holds words, glances,
Moments, that live
Deep inside my loneliness
And I can’t hold on
Without starting to shake
When I say your name
