El Canto Del Olvido

It's been four months since I heard from you
It's been four months since I could sleep
The only one who listens to all my problems is my guitar (hey man)
Because every time I talk to her about you
She responds with a do re mi
Her advice is to stop thinking about you, to throw in the towel

When I think of you
There's no doctor that can heal me
No therapy that can help
All I can do is sing
When I think of you
I hum this melody
And even though it still hurts
Today I sing to keep from crying

This is the song
The song of forgetting
Because when I sing it
My tears run dry
And I forget that you’re gone

This is the song
The song of forgetting
Because when I sing it
My tears run dry
And I forget that you’re gone

I don’t know what to do with this bitterness
Among these six strings, I lose my sanity
I want to say so much, but no words come out

Because what I can’t say
I can say
I can sing
Sing it in a song
That you’ll never hear

Because what I can’t say
I can say
I can sing
Sing it in a song
That I sing to keep from crying

This is the song
The song of forgetting
Because when I sing it
My tears run dry
And I forget that you’re gone

This is the song
The song of forgetting
Because when I sing it
My tears run dry
And I forget that you’re gone

And I forget that you’re gone
And I forget that you’re gone
