El Dia Que Se Hizo Tarde
Rosana Arbelo
The Day That Became Late
Every night I waited for you
with the same crazy desire
to arrive early
and disarm me in your mouth
and you came and the night
and the night and you came
to let me pour
fantasy into your body.
... but one day it became late
I thought it was just that
because the night did come and
didn't stop giving me a kiss.
one day, another day and another
did show without a doubt
that the night is better than you...
the night is more faithful than dark.
I shook the memories
turning in bed
and in one of many turns
I found the dawn
I jumped to look for you
where you used to come
and I saw you, damn you!
just as I saw you leave.
... I gave a breath of love to the wind
to see if it would reach you
but even the breeze itself
got tired of chasing after
I never knew the reasons
I still ignore them
even if you don't believe it, by God!
I swear I still miss you.
sanity abandoned me
when you left my life
like time to the walls
your love made me ruin.
... the day that became late
I thought it was just that
because the night did come
and didn't stop giving me a kiss.
