El callejero
Willie Rosario
The Streetwise
I'm streetwise!
Don't fall in love with me, don't fall in love with me
Because I'm from the street
And I don't want to hurt anyone
Or be blamed
I don't want to hurt your heart,
Your beauty is not for me
I just don't want sweet love for you to fall in love with me
I'm streetwise
And I can't adore you
Because I'm from the street
And my time is serene
And although I can't deny,
That my love for you grows
Because I'm from the street
And one day I may not return
(Chorus)
Because I'm from the street, I can't love you
And from the beginning I was honest with you
I told you that I was
From the street, streetwise!
Now you come to me
Demanding what I can't give, streetwise!
Because I'm from the street,
Because I'm streetwise
If you know that I'm streetwise
(Chorus)
I can't love you
And since I'm from the street
I can't love you
But let them say what they say
I was the first
My suffering is great
Because no one knows what I feel
But my sweet love don't think of me
I'm from the street and I won't change
(Chorus)
Because I'm from the street, I can't love you
Although I love you and don't want to leave you
I'll have to forget you
I wish I could swear I'll come back
But I don't know if I'll return
If you don't understand my way of being
I'm sorry for you, woman.
