It's been a long time since I sang for you Hace mucho que no canto para vos And I tell you that I love you like nothing Y te digo que te amo como a nada Maybe it's the habit of having you Tal vez sea la costumbre de tenerte But my mouth is muzzled Pero tengo la boca abozalada
Maybe it's the habit of having you Tal vez sea la costumbre de tenerte But my mouth is muzzled Pero tengo la boca abozalada The words don't come out No me salen las palabras And my pretentious artisan hands Y mis manos artesanas pretenciosas
Of vain works De obras vanas They don't give you the caresses you would like No te entregan las caricias que quisiera Return you as payment to your record Devolverte como pago a tu constancia The constancy of loving me every day La constancia de quererme cada día
To take care of me, protect me, accompany me De cuidarme, protegerme, acompañarme For a man like me, clumsy and arrogant Para un hombre como yo, torpe y soberbio It is a rare privilege not to get tired Es un raro privilegio el no cansarte It is a rare privilege not to get tired Es un raro privilegio el no cansarte
I want to love you and tell you in this song Quiero amarte y decirte en este canto I like to see you free and fly high Que me gusta verte libre y volar alto And that I am no longer satisfied with loving you Y que ya no me conformo con quererte Only love can fill us Solamente el amor puede llenarnos
Day by day I ask God to allow me Día a día pido a Dios que me permita Always have a reconciled attitude Tener siempre una actitud reconciliada May your triumph be my triumph and forever Que tu triunfo sea mi triunfo y para siempre And the hand that offers you a home Y la mano que te ofrezca una morada
If you go to fulfill your hope Si te marchas a cumplir con tu esperanza May my love never be an obstacle Que no sea mi amor nunca una traba Seek freedom, your likeness Buscar la libertad, tu semejanza May my love never be an obstacle Que no sea mi amor nunca una traba Seek freedom, your likeness Buscar la libertad, tu semejanza
