[English]

Moments are playing

Wounds without words

Wounds with words

Barely saying anything

You hardly say anything

And nothing is enough

He thinks it's crazy

To pay attention to what people say

And I, if you're not here

I don't know how to stay

Forgive me, if I ever

Made you cry, sky eyes

Forgive me, if I ever

Stole a "I love you" from your lips

Forgive me

Forgive me

...

I follow your footsteps

Even if I sometimes get lost

I get lost in a thousand questions

And I always end up running away

Why run away

If I carry you inside?

Today I miss you

But I'm scared

And I, if you're not here

I don't know how to stay

Forgive me, if I ever

Made you cry, sky eyes

Forgive me, if I ever

Stole a "I love you" from your lips

Forgive me

Forgive me

Forgive me

...

Today, even if you're far away

I'm still here

You know I can't

Without you

Moments are playing

Wounds without words

Wounds with words

Barely saying anything

You hardly say anything

And nothing is enough

He thinks it's crazy

To pay attention to what people say

And I, if you're not here

I don't know how to stay

Forgive me, if I ever

Made you cry, sky eyes

Forgive me, if I ever

Stole a "I love you" from your lips

Forgive me

Forgive me

Forgive me

Forgive me

Forgive me, if I ever

Made you cry, sky eyes

Forgive me, if I ever

Stole a "I love you" from your lips

Forgive me

Forgive me

Forgive me

...

[Spanish]

Juegan los momentos

Heridas sin palabras

Heridas con palabras

Sin apenas decir nada

Apenas dices nada

Y nada es suficiente

Piensa que es demente

Hacer caso a la gente

Y yo, si tú no estás

Ya no sé estar

Perdóname, si alguna vez

Te hice llorar, ojos de cielo

Perdóname, si alguna vez

Robé de tus labios un "te quiero"

Perdóname

Perdóname

Sigo tus pisadas

Aunque a veces me pierdo

Me pierdo en mil preguntas

Y siempre acabo huyendo

¿Por qué salir corriendo

Si te llevo aquí adentro?

Hoy te echo de menos

Pero es que tengo miedo

Y yo, si tú no estás

Ya no sé estar

Perdóname, si alguna vez

Te hice llorar, ojos de cielo

Perdóname, si alguna vez

Robé de tus labios un "te quiero"

Perdóname

Perdóname

Perdóname

Hoy aunque estés lejos

Sigo aquí

Sabes que no puedo

No sin ti

Juegan los momentos

Heridas sin palabras

Heridas con palabras

Sin apenas decir nada

Apenas dices nada

Y nada es suficiente

Piensa que es demente

Hacer caso a la gente

Y yo, si tú no estás

Ya no sé estar

Perdóname, si alguna vez

Te hice llorar, ojos de cielo

Perdóname, si alguna vez

Robé de tus labios un "te quiero"

Perdóname

Perdóname

Perdóname

Perdóname

Perdóname, si alguna vez

Te hice llorar, ojos de cielo

Perdóname, si alguna vez

Robé de tus labios un "te quiero"

Perdóname

Perdóname

Perdóname

Key Grammar Structures

• Heridas sin palabras

  ➔ Prepositional phrase with 'sin'

  ➔ The preposition "sin" (without) modifies "palabras" (words). It describes the heridas (wounds) as being without words, implying unspoken pain.

• Y nada es suficiente

  ➔ Use of the verb 'ser' with an adjective of sufficiency

  ➔ "Es suficiente" means "it is enough/sufficient". Here, "nada" (nothing) is the subject, and "suficiente" (sufficient) is the adjective describing it.

• Perdóname, si alguna vez Te hice llorar, ojos de cielo

  ➔ Conditional clause with 'si' + Preterite Perfect (hice llorar)

  ➔ "Si alguna vez te hice llorar" means "If I ever made you cry." "Si" introduces the conditional clause. "Hice llorar" (made to cry) is the preterite tense of *hacer* + infinitive, showing a completed action in the past. "Ojos de cielo" is a poetic address.

• Aunque a veces me pierdo

  ➔ Subjunctive mood with 'aunque'

  ➔ "Aunque a veces me pierdo" translates to "Even though sometimes I get lost." "Aunque" (although, even though) often triggers the subjunctive mood when expressing uncertainty or a hypothetical situation. In this case, the indicative 'pierdo' is used likely because the speaker is sure this is a true fact, they sometimes lose themselves.

• ¿Por qué salir corriendo Si te llevo aquí adentro?

  ➔ Rhetorical question + conditional sentence with "si"

  ➔ The first part is a rhetorical question, implying the answer is obvious (there's no reason to run). The second part "Si te llevo aquí adentro?" (If I carry you inside me?) expresses the reason why the speaker thinks the other person shouldn't run away. Using the present tense emphasizes the continuous state of carrying the person inside.

• Hoy te echo de menos

  ➔ Use of "echar de menos" to express missing someone

  ➔ "Echar de menos" is an idiomatic expression in Spanish that means "to miss someone". The structure is "echar de menos + object (person or thing)", with appropriate pronoun placement (te, me, le, etc.).
