La Tregua
Luis Jara
The Truce
Where is the world
That we said would never end
Where is the world
We lived without measuring our age
Your youth made me dream
And the sun shone in my gray hair
Your freedom, empty in me
Everything a man would want to feel
And today, instead, it prevents me from resisting
To love and live
Thanks for the truce
That you gave to my existence
Thanks for the way
To make me see
That I also know about love
Time goes by without returning
Taking away the facts
Leaving behind my reality
And turning the present into a thousand memories
That were created from the future that ended in yesterday
Thanks for your body
Thanks for loving me
Thanks for your life
That I will not live
Thanks for the truce
That you gave to my existence
Thanks for the way
To make me see that I also know about love.
