Quisiera
Ricardo Montaner
I Wish
In a cold dawn,
emerges despair
What would be of a poet's tears, without a sad story to tell?
Without a new love to wait for.
I wanted to wash away your memory
As if it were a coat.
I've worn it so many times
to cover the emptiness.
Because my skin is aging
This cold is tanning me.
I'm still alone and I'm thin,
I'm still alone but I'm alive.
Chorus:
I wish, I wish
to hide you in oblivion
my sorrow is so difficult
delirium and mixture of weariness
I wish, I wish
but this confinement is so long
to confine you in the past
for centuries and centuries
I wish.
We mortals
life is not enough for us
to love at the highest
and endure the fall.
We start by promising
We end up breaking promises
We are afraid to fall in love
We fear another attempt.
Chorus:
I wish, I wish
to hide you in oblivion
my sorrow is so difficult
delirium and mixture of weariness
I wish, I wish
but this confinement is so long
to confine you in the past
for centuries and centuries
I wish... I wish
