Laura Ya No Vive Aquí
Victor Manuel
Laura No Longer Lives Here
If she knew what to say to you
She wouldn't be so quiet
She wouldn't say she's not thinking of anything
If she had words to spare
She'd look you in the eye
And stop fidgeting with her skirt
...Laura no longer lives here
She left a letter for you
When you want to cry about it
You'll always remember Paris...
If you fought like wolves
Against everything, against everyone
For the right to be happy in your own way
She saw through your eyes
Discovering deep down
That desire is like a river with no return
Was it Paris or the downpour
That soaked you from the inside
That opened a clear path to her kisses
That bed was her school
Those bodies two poems
Downing the stars in one gulp
...Laura no longer lives here
She left a letter for you
When you want to cry about it
You'll always remember Paris...
If the new owner of her laughter
Doesn't erase you from his life
And from the pages that have already been written
Maybe the wounds will heal
From that poorly lived story
And you can simply be friends
...Laura no longer lives here...
