Vivir sin ti [English translation]

It was after a gray afternoon,

he left, never to return—

he lost himself in the coldness of silence—

he left her without knowing why.

And on that same gray afternoon,

faced with the bonds of the past—

in order not to lose the last sigh of a goodbye—

the punishment of a love that one day died.

To live without you, without your love—

dreaming that tomorrow you will come back to me.

It will be that fate never returns to you

to inhale the fire of your skin.

To live without you, so that,

burning with the desire to hold you once again—

feeling as if I am dying to hold onto your love—

a love on fire that died one day.

This afternoon is gray,

and I still wait for you,

dreaming that my love will no longer be agony

when the day arrives to see you once more.

To live without you, without your love—

dreaming that tomorrow you will come back to me.

It will be that fate never returns to you

to inhale the fire of your skin.

To live without you, so that,

burning with the desire to hold you once again—

feeling as if I am dying to hold onto your love—

a love on fire that died one day.

Loneliness, so alone and so empty,

now that you are not here, I need you—

and I am dying because I know

that now I no longer am able

to live without you, without your love—

dreaming that tomorrow you will come back to me.

It will be that fate never returns to you

to inhale the fire of your skin.

To live without you, so that,

burning with the desire to hold you once again—

feeling as if I am dying to hold onto your love—

a love on fire that died one day—

one day.
