Por Que Tardaste Tanto

Why Did You Take So Long
I have piled up things to say
And it's the moment
To give you everything I've been saving for a long time
I feel like I knew you before and now I understand
Beautiful things take a long time but always arrive at their time
And I still don't know, I just can't understand
Why did you take so long?
If your smile was the only cure for all the crying
If your joy is my only reason
To keep fighting, to live dreaming
Why did you take so long?
It's not a complaint but I was getting used to heartbreak
Loving halfway, settling for little love wasting
Why did you take so long?
And if you didn't come, I would keep waiting
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I had many sleepless, turbulent nights
And I confess
That if you hadn't arrived, I wouldn't have found shelter from that wicked cold
I had to live through failed attempts and a thousand stumbles
Involving more lies and fewer feelings each time
And I still don't know, I just can't understand
Why did you take so long?
If your smile was the only cure for all the crying
If your joy is my only reason
To keep fighting, if I'm changing for you
Why did you take so long?
It's not a complaint but I was getting used to heartbreak
Loving halfway, settling for little love, my tears
Why did you take so long?
And if you didn't come, I would keep waiting
Why did you take so long?
If your smile was the only cure for all the crying
If your joy is my only reason
To keep fighting, if I'm changing for you
Why did you take so long?
It's not a complaint but I was getting used to heartbreak
Loving halfway, settling for little love wasting
Why did you take so long?
And if you didn't come, I would keep waiting
