Conjuro Lyrics in English Lila Downs
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Conjuro by Lila Downs from Spanish to English.
Ya sabes que no quiero verte
You already know that I don't want to see you
Lo habíamos dejado claro tantas veces
We'd made it clear so many times
Estar así de cerca ya no nos conviene
Being this close doesn't suit us anymore
Cada quien está bien con lo que tiene
Each of us is fine with what we have
Tu nombre es un conjuro del pasado
Your name is a spell from the past
Por eso trato de no mencionarlo
That's why I try not to mention it
Nos fuimos cada uno por su lado
We each went our own way
Y aún así seguimos enredados
And even so we're still tangled up
Me gusta imaginar que, poco a poco, pierdo el miedo
I like to imagine that, little by little, I lose my fear
Y que, de pronto, llegas y me besas y me atrevo
And that, suddenly, you come and you kiss me and I dare
Cuando me ves siento temblar la tierra
When you look at me I feel the earth shake
Y ya estoy lista pa' empezar la guerra
And I'm already ready to start the war
Cuando te vas el alma se me quiebra
When you leave my soul breaks
Parece que tú quieres que me muera
It seems that you want me to die
Y cada noche rezo
And every night I pray
Para que ya te olvide o pa' que me des un beso
So that I already forget you or that you give me a kiss
Y, tal vez, sea el vino o una trampa del destino
And, maybe, it's the wine or a trap of destiny
O soy yo que ya alucino por quererte aquí, conmigo
Or it's me who's already hallucinating from wanting you here, with me
Me derrito como cera derramándose en la mesa
I melt like wax spilling on the table
Me miras a los ojos, no lo niegues, te das cuenta
You look me in the eyes, don't deny it, you realize
Tu nombre es un conjuro del pasado
Your name is a spell from the past
Por eso trato de no mencionarlo
That's why I try not to mention it
Nos fuimos cada uno por su lado
We each went our own way
Y aún así seguimos enredados
And even so we're still tangled up
Me gusta imaginar que, poco a poco, pierdo el miedo
I like to imagine that, little by little, I lose my fear
Y que, de pronto, llegas y me besas y me atrevo
And that, suddenly, you come and you kiss me and I dare
Cuando me ves siento temblar la tierra
When you look at me I feel the earth shake
Y ya estoy lista pa' empezar la guerra
And I'm already ready to start the war
Cuando te vas el alma se me quiebra
When you leave my soul breaks
Parece que tú quieres que me muera
It seems that you want me to die
Y cada noche rezo
And every night I pray
Para que ya te olvide o pa' que me des un beso
So that I already forget you or that you give me a kiss
Y cada noche rezo
And every night I pray
Para que ya te olvide o pa' que me des un beso
So that I already forget you or that you give me a kiss
