Noche [English translation]

One night ahead,

and too many behind,

confessing to my pillow

that no one sees me crying.

When the stars arrive,

I fear my good judgement

may underestimate my fixation

on wanting to see you again.

And once my head is asleep,

my heart will take control.

I will dream that you wake me up,

that your bet on us both is still on.

My heartbeats are so loud

that the sound of my voice

can't be heard when, out loud,

it cries for me to grow older.

That's why I die every night,

and then a sunbeam finds me.

My dreams stay in bed

and I get out.

As soon as I close my eyes,

my heart shrinks.

What a blinking lasts

is now a picture of us both.

And though I know our story

is the one that never could be,

in some of my dreams

being brave is your role.

And once my head is asleep,

my heart will take control.

I will dream that you wake me up,

that your bet on us both is still on.

My heartbeats are so loud

that the sound of my voice

can't be heard when, out loud,

it cries for me to grow older.

That's why I die every night,

and then a sunbeam finds me.

My dreams stay in bed

and I get out.

Sometimes, when I speak about my life,

I end up bursting into tears.

I guess that's how I begin

to tell what I really want to say.

My heartbeats are so loud

that the sound of my voice

can't be heard when, out loud,

it cries for me to grow older.

Goodbye forever, partner.

Our story is over.

Goodbye forever, my friend,

there's no more space for two.

That's why I die every night

and mornings make me live.

This way, during the day I have my years

whereas, at night,

my swift years... have me.
