Quise lavar tu recuerdo
I wanted to wash your memory
Como si fuera un abrigo
like it's a coat
Me lo he puesto tantas veces
I have worn it so many times
Para cubrirme el vacío
to cover my emptiness
Porque mi piel se esta ajando
because my skin is getting old
Me esta curtiendo este frio
This cold is tanning me
Sigo solo y estoy flaco
I'm still alone and I'm skinny
Sigo solo pero vivo
I'm still alone but alive
Quisiera, quisiera
I would like, I would like
Esconderte en el olvido
hide in oblivion
Tan difícil es mi pena
so difficult is my sorrow
Delirio y mezcla de hastío
Delirium and mixture of boredom
Quisiera, quisiera
I would like, I would like
Pero es tan largo este encierro
But this confinement is so long
Confinarte en el pasado
confine yourself in the past
Por los siglos de los siglos
Forever and ever
A nosotros los mortales
to us mortals
No nos alcanza la vida
Life is not enough for us
Para amar en lo más alto
To love on high
Y soportar la caída
And bear the fall
Comenzamos prometiendo
We started by promising
Terminamos incumpliendo
we end up defaulting
Nos da miedo enamorarnos
we are afraid to fall in love
Le tememos a otro intento
We fear another try
