Bajo Mi Piel

I keep you in the smoke, from the coffee that's gone cold
In the broken mirror, where your laughter got lost
My fingers still remember, how you trembled when you sang
And the silence you left, I just can't stand

Sorry if I was a coward
And my promises shattered like glass
But every night you come back
Like a shadow, like salt

Under my skin, you live on
With your stormy eyes
And your sweetness like brown sugar

Under my skin, you hurt more
'Cause the love I gave you
Never knew how to say it out loud
And even if time wrinkles me
And the world forgets us
You still are the verse
That my soul can't finish

I found your picture, among letters left unsent
Your scent still lingers, I can't erase it
The Moon spies on us from that April balcony
Where we swore eternity
And the future let us down

Sorry if I was absent
If my arms turned into loneliness
But every dawn
You hug me mercilessly

Under my skin, you live on
With your stormy eyes
And sweetness like brown sugar

Under my skin, you hurt more
'Cause the love I gave you
Never knew how to say it out loud
And even if time wrinkles me
And the world forgets us
You still are the verse
That my soul can't finish

They say that forgetting heals
But I'd rather remember you more
With open wounds
And my heart in checkmate

Under my skin, you remain
With your December fire
And your woman's cry

Under my skin, you hurt more
'Cause loving you was my heaven
And my prison too

And if one day they bury me
Carve this on my cross
Here lies a madman
Who died for your light

Under my skin

Always you
You uuuu uuuu
You uuuu uuuu
