El Precio de Tu Engaño
Mario Luis
The Price of Your Betrayal
If I, if I were late this gray afternoon
I wouldn't give you the darkness
I would rather take you to a world full of light
Where you can take care of me and fall in love a little
I would show you the love
That I have carried in my soul for so long
I would invite you for a coffee where you can forget
All the pain that you have carried so deep in your soul
And I would mend the love
With the desire to love that tears me apart
You pretend that love will never touch you again
I who would give my life for you
I who would never harm you
I must pay the price of your betrayal
As if I were the one who caused you harm
And you punish me without reason
And I don't know why you feel sorry
If all I want is to dry your tears
And in the process, rid myself of this pain
I need you
Only you could give a voice to this silence
That suffocates my life
Come back to me, return to me
And you know
I love you and you, nothing, huh
If God, if God told you about my pain
When I see you cry for him
Or if I could hide in madness perhaps
You would think that the passage through life has been in vain
And not have to wait for you to get tired of him, poor my life
If you noticed me, like you notice him
If you were inspired like with him to write me letters
And if you loved me like you love him, everything would change
There would then be reasons to console myself
And what am I going to console myself for
If I still have to feel your absence next to you
Finally, I have your presence so close
I must admit that you are thinking of him
And you vent your anguish on me
And like a fool, I dry your tears
And I don't know why you feel sorry
If I should be the one feeling sorry for you
I need you
Only you could destroy this hell with your kisses
Come dry my tears
Don't let me die, come back to me, my love
