No Pude

I really wanted to, I tried
I did everything I could
To not see you again
To never cross paths with your gaze
Your words, your perfume, in the early morning

I really wanted to, I tried
To forget you forever and ignore
That what we had ever existed
A lie is a lie, even backwards

But I couldn't, I couldn't
Make my heart act with reason
I couldn't, I couldn't
Make my heart not fulfill its function
I couldn't

I truly confess that I also tried
To tell my mind to erase you
And forbid the memory from visiting again
And to make my body forget your caresses

But I couldn't, I couldn't
Make my heart act with reason
I couldn't, I couldn't
Make my heart not fulfill its function
I couldn't

But I couldn't, I couldn't
Make my heart act with reason
I couldn't, I couldn't
Make my heart not fulfill its function
I couldn't

It's not me who inhabits it
It's you
