Mariana

Brother Alberto; I couldn't write to you
At the very moment of receiving your letter
And your song. The impact was devastating

We were at a standstill
That you know well, your letter
Was the small incentive
For reconciliation, and from there
To drama once again

Either way the act remains
It will remain and endure until the
Last of my days, as one of the
Most beautiful, warmest
And most colorful events of my grayish life

I always love you. And this
Said from man to man
In the manner of your songs
And I send you my best hug and my tenderness
Which no matter how much it is
Will never cover yours
Jorge

Life has its ways, Mariana
Life has its ways
When we fly higher, Mariana
The fall hurts more
Life has its ways, Mariana
Life has its ways

That simple adventure, Mariana
Without the vocation of a seed
Took root in time, Mariana
Opening old wounds

My heart doesn't reject, Mariana
Our hidden passion
But my reason takes it away, Mariana
For being the forbidden fruit

Life has its ways, Mariana
Life has its ways

I am autumn and I owe you, Mariana
Your fiery spring
Your leaves are sprouting, Mariana
Mine have already fallen

In a deep void, Mariana
Of shared loneliness
I will watch over illusions, Mariana
That have fallen asleep

Life has its ways, Mariana
Life has its ways
When we fly higher, Mariana
The fall hurts more
Life has its ways, Mariana
Life has its ways
