La Tortura

I’m not asking for sunny days every day
I’m not asking for party Fridays every week
I’m not asking for you to come back begging for forgiveness
If you’re crying with dry eyes
And talking about her

Oh, love, it hurts so much, it hurts so damn much
That you left without saying where
Oh, love, it was torture losing you

I know I haven’t been a saint
But I can fix it, babe
Man doesn’t live on bread alone
And I don’t live on excuses
We only learn from mistakes
And today I know my heart is yours

I can’t ask for winter to spare a rosebush
I can’t ask for the elms to bear pears
I can’t ask the eternal for a mere mortal
And go throwing pearls to the swine

Oh, love, it hurts so much, it hurts so damn much
That you left without saying where
Oh, love, it was torture losing you

I know I haven’t been a saint
But I can fix it, babe
Man doesn’t live on bread alone
And I don’t live on excuses
We only learn from mistakes
And today I know my heart is yours

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
