Me Tiraste Al Mar
Los Continuados
You Threw Me Into the Sea
They said I was a bum so you would leave me
that he can't offer you anything, he has nothing
You listened to those words
their thorns were stronger
I could understand your silence
I knew you loved me.
And it was you
who, without caring, threw me into the sea
and never asked if I knew how to swim
and only by shipwrecking could I continue
asking for a lifeguard to come and rescue
a man who is dying without reason
whose only sin was to give love
whose only treasure was his heart...
I never had fortunes, only my nobility
I never had the luck to have riches
only my virtues that made me strong
only that great affection towards people
And it was you
who, without caring, threw me into the sea
and never asked if I knew how to swim
and only by shipwrecking could I continue
asking for a lifeguard to come and rescue
a man who is dying without reason
whose only sin was to give love
whose only treasure was his heart
a great heart...
Life turns and has unexpected changes
in another scene, I found you and today is different
now if you look me in the eye
now if you can talk to me
hinting that you were wrong
I don't want to hear you, go away!...
And tell those who advised you thank you for interrupting
the happiness of this bum who believed in love
they can't imagine how much I loved you
they can't imagine how much I adored you
And tell them that in my mind there is no resentment
that thanks to fate, I found another love
the one that changed my luck without conditions
I never had fortunes, only my nobility
I never had the luck to have riches
only my virtues that made me strong
only that affection towards people
And it was you
who, without caring, threw me into the sea
and never asked if I knew how to swim
and only by shipwrecking could I continue
asking for a lifeguard to come and rescue
a man who is dying without reason
whose only sin was to give love
whose only treasure was his heart...
