Lyrics
Te prometí que iba a olvidar
y ya lo ves, no he podido.
Como un rumor en las sombras
tu corazón me ha seguido.
Busqué escapar, pero ya ves,
me traicionó el ayer...

Llanto...
agua mansa de tus ojos.
Llanto...
donde ahogué mi soledad...
Llanto...
que mojó con su ternura
la canción ilusionada
que entonamos con locura.

Llanto...
la obsesión de tu tristeza.
Llanto...
me condena a recordar.
Llanto...
con tus hilos de agua mansa
me anudás a la esperanza
que juramos olvidar.
English translation
I promised you I was going to forget
and you see, I couldn't.
Like a rumor in the shadows
your heart has followed me.
I tried to escape, but you see,
yesterday betrayed me...

Crying...
gentle water from your eyes.
Crying...
where I drowned my loneliness...
Crying...
that wet with its tenderness
the illusioned song
that we sang with madness.

Crying...
the obsession of your sadness.
Crying...
condemns me to remember.
Crying...
with your threads of gentle water
you tie me to the hope
that we swore to forget.
