Todavía quedan restos de humedad
There are still traces of moisture
Sus olores llenan ya mi soledad
Their smells already fill my loneliness
En la cama su silueta
In bed her silhouette
Se dibuja cual promesa
What promise is drawn
De llenar el breve espacio
To fill the brief space
En que no está
in which it is not
Todavía yo no sé si volverá
I still don't know if he will return
Nadie sabe, al día siguiente, lo que hará
Nobody knows, the next day, what he will do
Rompe todos mis esquemas
Break all my schemes
No confiesa ni una pena
He does not confess a single pity
No me pide nada a cambio de lo que da
He does not ask me for anything in exchange for what he gives
Suele ser violenta y tierna
It is usually violent and tender
No habla de uniones eternas
It does not speak of eternal unions
Mas se entrega cual si hubiera
But it is delivered as if there were
Sólo un día para amar
just one day to love
No comparte una reunión
Does not share a meeting
Mas le gusta la canción
Do you like the song more?
Que comprometa su pensar
That compromises your thinking
Todavía no pregunte «¿te quedarás?»
Still don't ask "will you stay?"
Temo mucho a la respuesta de un «jamás»
I am very afraid of the answer of a "never"
La prefiero compartida
I prefer shared
Antes que vaciar mi vida
Rather than empty my life
No es perfecta, mas se acerca
It's not perfect, but it's close
A lo que yo simplemente soñé
To what I just dreamed
Suele ser violenta y tierna
It is usually violent and tender
No habla de uniones eternas
It does not speak of eternal unions
Mas se entrega cual si hubiera
But it is delivered as if there were
Sólo un día para amar
just one day to love
No comparte una reunión
Does not share a meeting
Mas le gusta la canción
Do you like the song more?
Que comprometa su pensar
That compromises your thinking
