Para Vivir

Many times I told you
That before doing it, we had to think it through real well
That this bond between us
Needed some flesh and desire too

That it wasn't enough
For you to understand me and to die for me
That it wasn't enough
For me to find refuge in you during my failures

And now you see what happened, it finally came to be
As the years went by
The tremendous exhaustion
That I now cause in you
Even though it's painful
You have to say it

For my part, I was hoping
That one day time would take care of the end
If it hadn't been that way
I would have kept playing at making you happy

And even though the crying is bitter
Think of the years you have left to live
That my pain is no less
And the worst part is I can't feel anymore

And now trying to win back with futile effort
That lost time
That leaves us defeated
Without being able to know
What they call love
To live
To live
