Besos Peregrinos

I wanted your eyes to be
The light of my awakenings
And now I live in darkness
With a cane of sorrows

I also wanted your dream
To be untouched by a fly
You dreamed of another owner
What a shame, I admit it now

Some pains are eternal
Mine has become eternal
Life is weighing me down
With so much melancholy

I don’t blame your deceit
Nor do I blame your forgetfulness
I blame your poison
That hasn’t been able to kill me

I wanted you to be my lady
But you weren’t born for that
Your kisses are wandering
I understand you, though I confess

That sometimes, losing my grip
I’ve cursed your name
And I’ve washed my wounds
With two or three manly tears

Some pains are eternal
Mine has become eternal
Life is weighing me down
With so much melancholy

I don’t blame your deceit
Nor do I blame your forgetfulness
I blame your poison
That hasn’t been able to kill me
