La Vieja Banca
Valentín Elizalde
The Old Bench
ay in front of the church
an old bench
that was a witness
to those promises
of love you made me
that I will never forget
t is also a witness
to when you left
I wanted to stop you
my heart breaks
my heart breaks
just thinking
that you won't come back
"and I didn't want you to leave, but your pride
prevented me from stopping you, given my chance
to have you and make you happy, I decided it was better to let you go,
you took the TV, the fridge, you took everything
and yet I'm missing you,......come on"
so much suffering
is inside my soul
such great pain
crying in silence
my life is ending
I miss your love
my heart breaks
seeing the old bench
since I lost you
I sit on it
because I'm afraid
that one day it will ask me
what has become of you
