En Un Cuarto De Hotel
Lia Crucet
In a Hotel Room
Dawn begins
On the clock face
It's almost six
It's late and you're not back
Jealousy makes me see
The dirty hotel room
I see both of you
Naked making love
The early morning fills my soul with loneliness
I don't want to cry
I've never known why
You change me for another woman
Dawn begins
I hear your steps arriving
Drunk again
Rag doll and paper
I'll have to pretend
That I'm asleep and wait
In the darkness
Your clumsy caresses maybe
You kiss me and in your breath
Alcohol and love
I want to scream
I want to run and escape
And I see that I'm not able
Dawn begins
I hear your breathing
And I smell on your skin
Cheap perfume and brothel
Tomorrow you'll tell me
You stayed to work
And I'll pretend
And I'll pretend once more
And in the kitchen, when I'm alone
I'll be able to cry
I'll wonder
If the man I loved so much
Can fall any lower
