Cuando Estoy Contigo

it's this absurd way
I cling to everything you see and touch
and this silly way
of missing you every minute you're not here

this fear of failing
is the smile on your mouth
that takes me out of my life and lifts me to another
and it's the luck of destiny
that has insisted on putting you in my path

it's the eagerness of wanting
that only wants to kiss you
it's the tears of love
that are dying to touch you
it's the phrases and poetry
that try to hold on to you
this moon and these days
tell me that now you are mine

and when I'm with you, distances no longer exist
the past becomes nothing and I am happy with your gaze
and when I'm with you, the moonlight turns on
and illuminates you among the people, to see you better... when I'm with you

it's the light in your gaze
that tells me there's nothing after you
and it's your voice that accompanies me
when I'm so alone and everything is so wrong
everything falls into place
it's your hands in mine
that make every night turn into day
and it's the warmth of your body
that shakes every part of my being

it's the eagerness of wanting
that only wants to kiss you
it's the tears of love
that are dying to touch you
it's the phrases and poetry
that try to hold on to you
this moon and these days
tell me that now you are mine

and when I'm with you, distances no longer exist
the past becomes nothing and I am happy with your gaze
and when I'm with you, the moonlight turns on
and illuminates you among the people, to see you better... when I'm with you
