Quisiera Amarte Menos
Chavela Vargas
I Wish I Could Love You Less
Spring of my twenties
Reliquary of my youth
A happy affection I dreamed of
And I am alone with my slavery
I wish I could love you less
I wish I could not see you anymore
Save myself from this fire
That I can't resist
This love is cruel
It doesn't give me rest
Without you, I can't reach
And I don't know how to live far away
I wish I could love you less
Because this is no longer life
My life is lost
From loving you so much
I don't know if I need
To have you or lose you
I know that I have loved you
More than I could
I wish I could love you less
Seeking to forget
And instead of loving you less
I love you much more
Between two who truly love each other
Affection must be different
While one gives their whole life
The other just lets themselves be loved
It's true and yet I can't
Be content with just loving you
I ask heaven to soon end
This hard chain of love
I wish I could love you less
I wish I could not see you anymore
Save myself from this fire
That I can't resist
This love is cruel
It doesn't give me rest
Without you, I can't reach
And I don't know how to live far away
I wish I could love you less
Because this is no longer life
My life is lost
From loving you so much
I don't know if I need
To have you or lose you
I know that I have loved you
More than I could
I wish I could love you less
Seeking to forget
And instead of loving you less
I love you much more
