Para Decirte Adiós
Celia Cruz
To Say Goodbye
Soul, my ships will follow you
Because I have silenced pain in remote seas
Life, my notes will reach you
Like white seagulls and they will tell you my love
Listen, the distance claims
But my arms call out in a voiceless forgiveness
Heart, in every snow cloud
A handkerchief moves to say goodbye
Heart, in every snow cloud
A handkerchief moves to say goodbye
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
The white handkerchief that I offered you
You left it, I keep it here
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
It said goodbye, said it would return
And never did
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
In every snow cloud a handkerchief moves
And always says goodbye
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
My ships will follow you, my ships will follow you
And I saying goodbye, goodbye
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
Love that you leave, don't come back
Another will come for me
(a handkerchief in the breeze)
(to say goodbye)
Goodbye, farewell, goodbye
Goodbye, farewell, my love
(to say goodbye)
(to say goodbye)
(to say goodbye)
(to say goodbye)
And if you leave, don't come back
(to say goodbye)
And I have another handkerchief
(to say goodbye)
May God forgive you and take you to heaven
(to say goodbye)
Goodbye, to say goodbye, to say goodbye
(to say goodbye)
(to say goodbye)
(to say goodbye)
