Toma tú recuerdo
Nelson Velasquez
Take your memory
I saw her coming with something in her hands
I thought it was a gift she was bringing me
Soon I understood
That I was wrong
Because I noticed in her eyes that she had cried
Contrary to any gift, it was my farewell
She told me, 'Here you have three years
Of loves that I went through excited
Inside a black bag, she gave me
The gifts I gave her
That she can't stand my deceit anymore
That the photo of us is torn
That she will burn everything I gave her
That forgetting marks the end
They can take my life
And I won't write songs anymore
But you won't forget me
Because I marked my name on you
But you won't forget me
Because I marked my name on you
She told me in the farewell that
She wished me luck then
And she said
Take your memories
Take them far away
I don't want them anymore
Blessed memories
That cause me harm
I don't want them anymore
Blessed memories
That cause me harm
I don't want them anymore
When I looked into her eyes, I noticed her confusion
I had the intention to grab her and hug her tight
But there was a lot of sadness fixed on her face
And guilt somehow pointed at me
No words came out and there I stood alone
How wrong I was
But I was blind and couldn't see
I went to look for her and she had already left
She didn't want to know about me
Today I want to make amends for the harm
Of so much pain that I caused her
Only you, God, know how much I love her
And today I don't want to lose her
They can take my life
And I won't write songs anymore
But you won't forget me
Because I marked my name on you
But you won't forget me
Because I marked my name on you
She told me in the farewell that
She wished me luck then
And she said
Take your memories
I don't want them anymore
Take them far away
Blessed memories
That cause me harm
I don't want them anymore
Blessed memories
That cause me harm
I don't want them anymore
Take your memories
I don't want them anymore
Take them far away
Blessed memories
That cause me harm
I don't want them anymore
