El Vendaval

I saw you closing the door and with the gale
Promises that I couldn't fulfill went with you
I spent my time on alert like an animal
Waiting for something you could never name

Before looking back
If it was the fear of losing me
You lost yourself in the end

I was clear
That our love overcame all assaults
You always ran away from your own scratches
I drank my luck to the last drop, but forced
I didn't hurt you
I didn't lie to you, nor did I promise half-truths
Some mistake was calculated with little tolerance
We have seen ourselves so small being so big

I saw how the empty bed could be lethal
The tears that the pillow holds cannot be written
Our perfect image was like a dagger
There are things that never work if you don't look with the eyes of the other half
And we became blind from looking so much

I was clear
That our love overcame all assaults
You always ran away from your own scratches
I drank my luck to the last drop, but forced
I didn't hurt you
I didn't lie to you, nor did I promise half-truths
Some mistake was calculated with little tolerance
We have seen ourselves so small being so big

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I was clear
That our love overcame all assaults
You always ran away from your own scratches
I drank my luck to the last drop, but forced
I didn't hurt you
I didn't lie to you, nor did I promise half-truths
Some mistake was calculated with little tolerance
We have seen ourselves so small being so big
