Yo te esperaba
I was waiting for you
Y veía mi cuerpo crecer
And I watched my body grow
Mientras buscaba
While searching
El nombre que te dí
The name I gave you
En el espejo
In the mirror
Fui la luna llena y de perfil
I was the full moon and in profile
Contigo dentro, jamás fui tan feliz
With you inside, I was never so happy
Moría por sentir
I was dying to feel
Tus piernecitas frágiles
Your fragile little legs
Pateando la obscuridad
Kicking the darkness
De mi vientre maduro
From my mature womb
Soñar no cuesta no
Dreaming doesn't cost no
Y con los ojos húmedos
And with wet eyes
Te veía tan alto es más
I saw you so high is more
En la cima del mundo
On top of the world
Yo te esperaba
I was waiting for you
Imaginando a ciegas el color
Blindly imagining color
De tu mirada y el timbre de tu voz
From your gaze and the timbre of your voice
Muerta de miedo
Scared to death
Le rogaba al cielo que te deje
He begged heaven to leave you
Llegar lejos, mucho más que yo
Going far, much more than me
Yo te esperaba
I was waiting for you
Y pintaba sobre las paredes
And he painted on the walls
De tu cuarto, sueños en color
From your room, dreams in color
Restaba sin parar, días al calendario
Subtracted non-stop, days to the calendar
Solo tú me podrías curar
Only you could cure me
El modo de escenario
Stage mode
El mundo es como es
The world is as it is
Y no puedo cambiartelo
And I can't change it for you
Pero siempre te seguiré
But I will always follow you
Para darte una mano
To give you a hand
Yo te esperaba
I was waiting for you
Imaginando a ciegas el color
Blindly imagining color
De tu mirada y el timbre de tu voz
From your gaze and the timbre of your voice
Muerta de miedo
Scared to death
Le rogaba al cielo que te deje
He begged heaven to leave you
Llegar lejos, mucho más que yo
Going far, much more than me
Yo te esperaba
I was waiting for you
Y en el espejo te miraba mientras
And in the mirror I looked at you while
Ya te amaba
I already loved you
