Lucía [English translation]

This song flies out

to you Lucía

The most beautiful love story

I’ve had and will have

It’s a love letter

that the wind blows away

To nowhere

to no mailbox

There’s nothing more beautiful

than what I’ve never had

Nothing more loved

than what I have lost

Forgive me if

today I search in the sand

For that full moon

that scarred the sea

If I ever was a fleeting bird

I forgot it as to nest in your arms

If I ever was beautiful and good

It was wrapped to your neck and to your breast

If I was ever wise in matters of love

I learned it from your singing lips

If I ever loved

one day

after loving you, I loved

It was because of your love, Lucía

Lucía… Lucía… Lucía…

The memories are

sweeter each day

Oblivion only took away half

And your shadow still

comes into my bed

with the darkness

Between my pillow

and my loneliness

There’s nothing more beautiful

Than what I’ve never had

Nothing more loved

Than what I have lost

Forgive me if today

I search in the sand

For that full moon

that scarred the sea

If I ever loved

one day

after loving you, I loved

It was because of your love, Lucía

Lucía… Lucía… Lucía…
