Para amarte necesito una razón Y es difícil creer que no exista una más que este amor Sobra tanto Dentro de este corazón Y a pesar de que dicen que los años son sabios todavía se siente el dolor Porque todo el tiempo que pasé junto a ti Dejó tejido su hilo dentro de mi Y aprendí a quitarle al tiempo los segundos Tú mi hiciste ver el cielo aún más profundo Junto a ti creo Que aumenté más de 3 kilos Con tus tantos dulces besos repartidos Desarollaste mi sentido del olfato Y fue por ti que aprendí a querer los gatos Despegaste del cemento mis zapatos Para escapar los dos volando un rato Pero olvidaste Una final instrucción Porque aún no se Cómo vivir sin tu amor Y descubrí lo que significa una rosa Me enseñaste a decir mentiras piadosas Para poder a verte a horas no adecuadas Y a reemplazar palabras por miradas Y fue por ti que escribí más de 100 canciones Y hasta perdoné tus Equivocaciones Y conocí más de mil formas de besar y fue por ti que descubrí lo que es amar… lo que es amar… |
To love you I need a reason And it’s hard to believe that it doesn’t exist other than this love There is a lot left Inside this heart Beside of what they say That the years are wisdom I still feel pain Because all the time I spent near you left its thread, woven in me And I learned to take out seconds from time… You made me see the sky deeper By your side I think I gained 3 pounds With your sweet kisses you gave me You developed my sense of smell And because of you I learned to like cats You freed my shoes from the pavement, So both could escape flying for a while But you forgot One last instruction Because I don’t know How to live without your love yet I learned the significance of a rose You taught me how to tell white lies So I could see you at improper hours And to replace words with a gaze And it was because of you that I wrote more than 100 songs I even forgave your mistakes And I discovered a thousand ways to kiss And because of you, I know what it is to love… what it is to love… |
