[English]

In silence, I'll walk away from you.

I won’t blame you for anything.

You crafted an unfaithful night in my home.

Forgetting that you were my beloved.

The seagull soared higher and higher.

While you were sleepless with love.

You forgot about me, feeling that spell.

That in its ship carried you to paradise.

And now you want to come back.

I don’t want anything with you anymore.

And now that you’ve been unfaithful.

We won’t even be friends.

While you felt love for another.

The veil was lifting from my eyes.

Revealing that you weren’t my path.

When I saw you as part of my destiny.

The seagull soared higher and higher.

While you were sleepless with love.

You forgot about me, feeling that spell.

That in its ship carried you to paradise.

And now you want to come back.

I don’t want anything with you anymore.

And now that you’ve been unfaithful.

I’ve become your enemy.

And now you want to come back.

I don’t want anything with you anymore.

And now that you’ve been unfaithful.

I’ve become your enemy.

[Spanish]

En silencio me alejare de ti.

No pienso reprocharte nada.

Fabricaste una noche infiel en mi morada.

Olvidandote que de mi eras amada.

La gaviota fue remontando el vuelo.

Mientras tu de amor vivias desvelo.

Te olvidaste de mi sientiendo aquel hechizo.

Que en su nave te transportaba al paraiso.

Y ahora tu quieres volver.

Ya no quiero nada contigo.

Y ahora que me fuiste infiel.

No seremos ya ni amigos.

Mientras tu sentias amor ajeno.

En mis ojos se corria el velo.

Descubriendo que no eras mi camino.

cuando yo te pretendia en mi destino.

La gaviota fue remontando el vuelo.

Mientras tu de amor vivias desvelo.

Te olvidaste de mi sientiendo aquel hechizo.

Que en su nave te transportaba al paraiso.

Y ahora tu quieres volver.

Ya no quiero nada contigo.

Y ahora que me fuiste infiel.

Me convierto en tu enemigo.

Y ahora tu quieres volver.

Ya no quiero nada contigo.

Y ahora que me fuiste infiel.

Me convierto en tu enemigo.
