Me Quito El Nombre
Silvio Brito (Colombia)
I Remove My Name
We're done, we've left each other
We've decided to lead separate lives
Taking the path that suits us best
We tried and there was no way
Even with people, I feel ashamed
The friends, I had already looked for
I suffer and I don't give up
And I'm always in love
And whoever says: Negra
Endure your heavy games
After a while, I don't see you
I don't even look for you anymore
More out of pride than my desires
And that would be your pleasure
I left shattered for my town
In order to forget your beautiful laughter
And as soon as I saw the Virgin Mary
I let out a sigh
And couldn't hold back
Oh, because I compared you to her
I asked the baptist
To baptize the beautiful woman
And if I don't become a hawk
And I'll check my schedule
I don't know which one would take me
But I know that Saint John the Baptist
Takes his time but doesn't forget, remember man
I feel he already has her in sight
And if it's not Barranquilla, I'll remove my name
I feel he already has her in sight
And if it's not Barranquilla, I'll remove my name, oh, I'll remove my name
Without hope and adrift
Like a seagull flying over the sea
I keep gambling my loneliness
Living in hope that God blesses
The woman who changes my life
Although none have arrived
I'm searching, I'm
With my guitar and my sorrow
In the meantime, I'm
Just waiting for your gaze
Whoever sees a sign at my house will see
Good love is given away
And the one who aspires must present
A card of sincere love
Because I'm like the fine cockfighter
Who wins one, but not two
Yesterday a very beautiful one came
She didn't bring a soul or heart
And that's not who I'm looking for
I asked science to find the formula
And I don't want to be a hawk anymore
Because I only want to find
The one who will be the owner of my days
I've searched for her throughout La Guajira
Cesar and Magdalena, she's still hiding
But I already saw one in Barranquilla
And if she's not the one, I'll remove my name
But I already saw one in Barranquilla
And if she's not the one, I'll remove my name, oh, I'll remove my name
If I don't take her, I'll remove my name
If she's not the one, I'll remove my name
If she's not mine, I'll remove my name
And if I don't take her, I'll remove my name
If she's not mine, I'll remove my name
And if I don't take her, I'll remove my name
If she's not the one, I'll remove my name
If she's not mine, I'll remove my name
