El Por Qué
Camilo Sesto
The Why
The reason for many things
the reason I do not know
nor why your kisses chill me
if your mouth is a fire
Why the water I drink
does not quench my thirst anymore
why... why?
The words sound old to me
and my time is marked by a clock
the arms I find open
belong to friends who are not
A cold runs through my body
my love closed its doors
why... why?
Goodbye love
nameless love, goodbye
goodbye love
love is had once
Goodbye love
do not let it slip away
goodbye love, goodbye, goodbye
There are rivers that die
and never reach the sea
there are springs that no longer give water
their source has dried up
I was the owner of a spring
my water did not kiss the sea
why... why?
The words sound old to me
and my time is marked by a clock
the arms I find open
belong to friends who are not
A cold runs through my body
my love closed its doors
why... why?
Goodbye love
nameless love, goodbye
goodbye love
love is had once
Goodbye love
do not let it slip away
goodbye love, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye love
goodbye love
goodbye love, goodbye...
