No Cuesta
Miguel Angel Oroyo Perez
It Doesn't Cost
Yeah
Another night thinking about you
And even if you're not here, I'm still here
You crossed into my life without warning
Like a poem without rhyme, without permission
And I, so deluded, believing in signs
Seeing love where you only gave manners
I got used to your messages
To the hello with a smile and without baggage
You never asked what I felt
And I pretended that everything was joy
And as they say, dreaming costs nothing
I dreamed of you until dawn
I invented futures that never came
And words of yours that were never spoken
And as they say, dreaming doesn't hurt that much
But it hurts to wake up and not be in your song
And although I was just one more in your eyes
I swear you were everything in my journey
I idealized you, I admit, beyond measure
I put you in songs, in verses, in my life
While you didn't even know what you were causing
I was already dying every time you spoke to me
I don't blame you for not feeling the same
Love is not forced nor measured in the same thing
I just wanted you to know
That I dreamed of you, even though you didn't see it
Perhaps in another life, at another time
When dreaming doesn't hurt, and loving isn't torment
Maybe you look at me the way I looked at you
Or maybe never, and I have already accepted that
And as they say, dreaming costs nothing
But paying with tears was not in the cards
I'm left with what was never real
And although it hurt, it was my way of loving
And as they say, dreaming costs nothing
But waking up without you, that's what kills me the most
