La Barca
Lucho Gatica
The Boat
They say that distance is forgetfulness
But I can't conceive that reason
Because I will continue to be the captive
Of the whims of your heart
You knew how to clarify my thoughts
You gave me the truth I dreamed of
You drove away my sorrows
On the first night that I loved you
Today my beach is dressed in bitterness, oh
Because your boat has to depart
To cross other seas of madness
Make sure it doesn't shipwreck in your life
When the Sun's light is fading and
You feel tired of wandering
Think that I will be waiting for you
Until you decide to return
You knew how to clarify my thoughts
You gave me the truth I dreamed of
You drove away my sorrows
On the first night that I loved you
Today my beach is dressed in bitterness
Because your boat has to depart
To cross other seas of madness
Make sure it doesn't shipwreck in your life
When the Sun's light is fading and
You feel tired of wandering
Think that I will be waiting for you
Until you decide to return
(Until you decide to return)
