Tus ojos tienen un brillo especial
cuando ellos hablan y tu boca calla,
mis ojos tienen oídos para escuchar,
¡no muevas tus labios!
¡no me dejarás oír su mensaje!
¡es tan bella su voz, tan dulce, suave…!
mantente en silencio,
permíteles que hablen,
que me cuenten tus temores
que me digan tus secretos
que se refugien en mi amor
que por ti será eterno.
No te esfuerces en hablar
mientras yo converso
con tus amados ojos negros.
I’ve waited a hundred years.
But I’d wait a million more for you.
Nothing prepared me for
What the privilege of being yours would do.
If I had only felt the warmth within your touch,
If I had only seen how you smile when you blush,
Or how you curl your lip when you concentrate enough,
I would have known what I was living for all along.
What I’ve been living for.
Your love is my turning page,
Where only the sweetest words remain.
Every kiss is a cursive line,
Every touch is a redefining phrase.
I surrender who I’ve been for who you are,
For nothing makes me stronger than your fragile heart.
If I had only felt how it feels to be yours,
Well, I would have known what I’ve been living for all along.
What I’ve been living for.
Though we’re tethered to the story we must tell,
When I saw you, well, I knew we’d tell it well.
With a whisper, we will tame the vicious scenes.
Like a feather bringing kingdoms to their knees.
Three little birds, sat on my window.
And they told me I don’t need to worry.
Summer came like cinnamon
So sweet, little girls double-dutch on the concrete.
Maybe sometimes, we’ve got it wrong, but it’s alright
The more things seem to change, the more they stay the same
Oh, don’t you hesitate.
Girl, put your records on, tell me your favourite song
You go ahead, let your hair down
Sapphire and faded jeans, I hope you get your dreams,
Just go ahead, let your hair down.
You’re gonna find yourself somewhere, somehow.
Blue as the sky, sunburnt and lonely,
Sipping tea in a bar by the roadside,
Don’t you let those other boys fool you,
Got to love that afro hair do.
Maybe sometimes, we feel afraid, but it’s alright
The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change.
Don’t you think it’s strange?
‘Twas more than I could take, pity for pity’s sake
Some nights kept me awake, I thought that I was stronger
When you gonna realize, that you don’t even have to try any longer?
Do what you want to.
Destino…
Me enamoro de las cosas más simples para sazonarlas de agridulce complejidad, me enamoro de todo aquello que no fue, que no es, lo recreo en mi mente una y mil veces. Lo reinvento y lo mantengo perfecto. Perfecto y lejano. Poco a poco me voy apropiando de todas sus posibilidades, ¡Cuánta libertad! mandar al destino al asiento de atrás y decirle: “Hey, mira a la ventana y ve cómo trazo mi propia ruta aunque tú me hagas garabatos en el vidrio empañado, me frunzas el ceño y me tuerzas la boca. P.D. No olvides el cinturón de seguridad que seguro nos vamos a estrellar”.
Beethoven’s Love Letter
Good morning, on July 7th
Even when I am in bed my thoughts rush to you, my eternally beloved, now and then joyfully, then again sadly, waiting to know whether Fate will hear our prayer—To face life I must live altogether with you or never see you. Yes, I am resolved to be a wanderer abroad until I can fly to your arms and say that I have found my true home with you and enfolded in your arms can let my soul be wafted to the realm on blessed spirits—alas, unfortunately it must be so—You will become composed, the more so as you know that I am faithful to you; no other woman can ever possess my heart—never—never—Oh God, why must one be separated from her who is so dear. Yet my life in Vienna at present is a miserable life—Your love has made me both the happiest and the unhappiest of mortals—At my age I now need stability and regularity in my life—can this coexist with our relationship?—Angel, I have just heard that the post goes every day—and therefore I must close, so that you may receive the letter immediately—Be calm; for only by calmly considering our lives can we achieve our purpose to live together—Be calm—love me—Today—yesterday—what tearful longing for you—for you—you—my life—my all—all good wishes to you—Oh, do continue to love me—never misjudge your lover’s most faithful heart.
Ever yours
Ever mine
Ever ours
