Los Recuerdos No Abrazan
Luciano Pereyra
Memories Don't Embrace
It's true that your love was the greatest, the most tender
It was passionate and the best
That I didn't have more pleasant and good moments
than the ones your love gave me
And that at every moment
and in everything I look at, I find,
but I must not forget that they are all memories
and you are not by my side.
Memories don't embrace
Memories don't kiss
The memories I have of you
do me no good if you're not here.
The common places, the small details
are the ones that hurt the most
and the street without you, our house without you
for me, everything is loneliness.
Your forgetfulness hurts
and forces me to live unwillingly in this freedom
because when you left, you clipped my wings
I can no longer fly.
