Por Que No Puedo Ser Feliz?
Pimpinela
Why Can't I Be Happy?
Lucía: Why, if I have only thought about us,
And I have given up almost everything for love,
Have they turned their backs on me again?
Joaquín: Maybe, you expect more than the world can give,
And you don't understand that love is not the same,
As what you only imagined yesterday. . .
Lucía: Why, if at every moment and always in everything I offered myself,
And I gave the best of my life,
I ended up with nothing again?
Lucía: Why can't I be happy?
Joaquín: I don't know. . .
Lucía: If I desire it with all my soul. . .
Joaquín: I don't know. . .
Lucía: Why can't I be happy?
Joaquín: You will be. . .
Lucía: If I only seek peace. . .
Why can't I be happy?
Joaquín: Everything will change. . .
Lucía: And tomorrow is so dark. . .
Joaquín: Don't look back. . .
Lucía: Why can't I be happy?
Joaquín: Start over. . .
Lucía: And nobody cares about me. . .
