El Camino Que Dejé

I still remember the dust on my sneakers
And the Sun setting at the end
The long curves of the road
They taught me how to move forward

I didn't know where I was going
I just knew it wasn't there
Fear traveled with me
But also the desire to live

Each kilometer erased doubts
But it left traces behind
Not everything that is abandoned
Love ceases

The path I left
It lives on in my voice
In the villages I dream of
When I drive alone

The path I left
He doesn't ask me to come back
It just reminds me
Where I started

The songs sound different
When the landscape changes its skin
There are names I no longer pronounce
But I didn't learn how to lose

The signals are slow
As if they saw me passing by
And on every yellow line
I learned not to look back

It was neither escape nor defeat
It was decision and courage
Going out is also a way
Of love

The path I left
He taught me to endure
To carry my roots
Without ceasing to follow

The path I left
It doesn't bind me, it didn't sink me
It gave me enough wings
To say who I am

Maybe I'll come back someday
Just to say thanks
But today my life
It's about moving again

The path I left
He never left me
He is sitting in the seat
Where I learned to feel

The path I left
It wasn't the end, nor was it a mistake
It was the exact beginning
Of all that I am
