Nieves De Enero
Valentín Elizalde
January Snows
The time has come
my dear soul, to talk
no more lies
I've waited so long
to see if you’d come through
and you don’t even look at me
at first you said
that once the snow came
in January
we’d go see the Virgin
and then get married
that would be the first thing
I can’t take your lies anymore
this waiting is tearing me apart
seeing the years go by
and I’m not dying waiting
January snows have come and gone
and the May flowers have arrived
you see, I’ve held on like a man
and I keep my bitter pain inside
the flowers have faded
and winter has come
and you don’t even look at me
that’s why I say
it’s time
to talk without lies
at first you said that once the snow came
in January
we’d go see the Virgin
and then get married
that would be the first thing
I can’t take your lies anymore
this waiting is tearing me apart
seeing the years go by
and I’m not dying waiting
January snows have come and gone
and the May flowers have arrived
you see, I’ve held on like a man
and I keep my bitter pain inside.
