La Vida Era Más Corta

I hold onto feelings that drip
That love at first smile
That envy of the breeze that touches your hair
We were or we will be, it doesn't matter now
We messed it up by being who we are
We couldn't find a way to love each other, and now
I feel like a wanderer through the cosmos
Trying to dodge the debris
Of what once was a universe, the language of a kiss
You thought life was shorter
Than to keep your promise of loving us forever

When you met me
You said you wanted to kill yourself
Because you don't love the devil
Maybe it was a sin to love each other

You never wanted to leave
You danced in Salamanca
We were young love
And we died with pale skin

The one to blame for all this is self-esteem
Because I didn't believe you loved me
Your pupils sparkled, I didn't deserve them

I valued your kisses when I didn't have them
Seeing you well hits my pride
Since it's your merit to suffer yourself

You were unhappy and I feel guilty for that
Silence translated your face
And I understood that we were just a process (I'm leaving)

When you met me
You said you wanted to kill yourself
Because you don't love the devil
Maybe it was a sin to love each other

You never wanted to leave
You danced in Salamanca
We were young love
And we died with pale skin

When you met me
You said you wanted to kill yourself
Because you don't love the devil
Maybe it was a sin to love each other

You never wanted to leave
You danced in Salamanca
We were young love
And we died with pale skin

(You danced in Salamanca, you danced in Salamanca, you danced in the Sala–)
(You danced in Salamanca)

You thought life was shorter
