Mi lecho está tendido
Silvio Rodriguez
My Bed is Made
My bed is made,
You've done me a big favor
But in the spot where
I was sleeping
I couldn't find my heart.
Where did you hide it?
What did you finally do with it?
You did your job and left,
And now I don't know how to love.
I don't want such a favor,
Leave that heart where it belongs.
Leave my old one in its hiding place,
I might still need it.
Don't strip it of its shelter,
What a favor to be so costly.
Today you made my bed
Just to fly away later,
Today you took the
World from my chest,
Today dawn is loneliness.
