Cielo y tierra [English translation]

I write your name without mine

today on your goodbye and I digress.

It must be inevitable.

I'll ask about that,

if by losing you I will learn

to give you up.

But if I look at you I feel

it scares you as much as me.

It could have been and it wasn't.

It could have but it wasn't.

And my memory, when it sails,

goes through the soul.

Suddenly, I'm back there now.

You were the sky and I was the earth,

and each of us was one half

in every doubt, in every reality.

You were the blood and I was the veins,

the same light in the body, in the soul.

Breathlessly, I'll look for you.

Breathlessly, suffocating myself.

There's no one responsible, you see now,

nor an innocent one either.

And now another instant

and two beats will join

with the impression that it is again

the same it was before.

You were the sky and I was the earth,

and each of us was one half

in every doubt, in every reality... in every look.

You were the blood and I was the veins,

the same light in the body, in the soul.

So while I'm still watching you

leave, my love,

I can't feel you're not mine.

It's... 'cause I don't know how to be without you!

I won't be able to forget you.

Every word you told me,

every project of freedom,

why can't the now be like yesterday?

'Cause I don't know how to be without you.

'Cause I don't know how to be without you.
