En Carne Propia
Silvio Brito (Colombia)
In My Own Flesh
Tell whoever asks about my life
That you have left so many absences in my love
That I remain wandering in oblivion
Like the fleeting echo of your promises
Tell them that even though I wanted to love you so much
I couldn't find my dreams in you
That what was just a whim for me
And today I'm not even in your memory
Think now
And remember that I also exist
And that hidden in my soul is a Jesus Christ
Who bled his wounds for your love
Tell the world
That you had this life in your hands
That I keep very nice things for you
And neither that nor anything served you
And singing and singing and singing I go
Proclaiming in my verses my loneliness
And singing and singing and singing I will go
Traveling paths to forget
And if once, woman, I gave you my love
I received only disappointment in return
And if once, woman, I gave you all my love
I have lost my luck and lost everything
And singing and singing and singing I go
Proclaiming in my verses my loneliness
And singing and singing and singing I will go
Traveling paths to forget
Oh, how I remember you, my love
Tell whoever asks about my past
To fill your paths with tenderness
And invent summers in summer
To see you happy under the moon
Tell whoever asks about my luck
That you are not to blame for my tears
That your mistake was never not loving me
That my mistake was loving you so much
Today I remember
A moment in the story of your life
That you wanted to love another forever
And wrote that goodbye with my tears
Now I understand
You tried to erase that with me
You couldn't forget and you left
And I suffered your pain in my own flesh
And singing and singing and singing I go
Proclaiming in my verses my loneliness
And singing and singing and singing I will go
Traveling paths to forget
And if once, woman, I gave you my love
I received only disappointment in return
And if once, woman, I gave you all my love
I have lost my luck and lost everything
And singing and singing and singing I go
Proclaiming in my verses my loneliness
And singing and singing and singing I will go
Traveling paths to forget
