Paloma Querida

For the day you came into my life
Beloved dove, I started to toast
And feeling a little tipsy
Thinking about your lips
I felt like singing
I felt superior to anyone
And I wanted to bring you a handful of stars
And seeing that none reached you
I got so angry that I wanted to cry
I don't know the worth of my life
But I come to give it to you
I don't know if your love will accept it
But I come to leave it for you
You found me on a dark path
Like a pilgrim without direction or faith
And the light of your divine eyes
Changed my luck for happiness and pleasure
Since then I feel like loving you
With all the strength my soul gives me
Since then, beloved dove
I have exchanged my chest for a dovecote
I don't know the worth of my life
But I come to give it to you
I don't know if your love will accept it
But I come to leave it for you
