Lyrics
ENGLISH LYRICS BELOW
Intro – Spoken
Bienvenidos a las canciones del llorica
así que preparaos para sacar los pañuelos
porque lo que vais a oír
es puro drama en acordes menores
Instrumental Intro – soft guitar and piano
Verse 1
Llevo todo el día pensando en ti
poniéndome tu última canción en bucle
y hasta había hecho una promesa
por si te veía, con escasas posibilidades
Y al salir del ascensor, ahí estabas
el calor de mi corazón, mi amada
pero solo he podido agachar la cabeza
e intentar pasar por tu lado como si nada
Será la última vez que nos veamos
hasta después de las vacaciones
y quién sabe si entonces volveremos a coincidir
ahora mismo me siento afortunado
Pero cuando tu recuerdo haya echado raíz
me tocará de nuevo sufrir, así, así, así
sin saber por qué te has metido tan dentro mío
que el resto de mi vida no parece tener sentido
Chorus
Si te dijera que te amo
¿me creerías o llamarías a la policía?
Si te dijera que te quiero
¿sonreirías o planearías mi entierro
No hace falta que contestes
(No hace falta que contestes)
Post-Chorus
Porque estos sueños son míos
y yo en los tuyos jamás habré aparecido
Instrumental Break – melancholic piano and guitar
Verse 2
No sé por qué hago estos destrozos a mis sentimientos
hundiéndome cada día más, cuando no puedo cambiar nada
pero no puedo decir que me arrepienta, porque todo tú me inspira
me guía, me empuja, aunque el precipicio sea demasiado grande para superar
Lo siento, lo siento, de verdad
no puedo evitar esto, no quiero
contigo, sin ti, estoy ya perdido
Ohhh, oooooooooooooh
Chorus
Si te dijera que te amo
¿podría regresar y perderme en el trabajo
Si te dijera que te quiero
¿callarías con tu silencio
o me mandarías al cuerno?
No hace falta que contestes
(No hace falta que contestes)
Post-Chorus
Porque estos sueños son míos
y en los tuyos jamás me has visto
Instrumental Solo
Break – spoken, almost whispered
Han pasado ya varias horas
y seguro ya no te encuentras aquí
tu imagen ahí sentada me la guardo para mí
para revivir la mirada cuando nuestros ojos se han cruzado
y he sentido ese temblor tan fuerte dentro de mi pecho
te voy a extrañar
te voy a soñar
te voy a llorar
y por supuesto
no te dejaré de amar
No, no, no
nuncaaaaaa mi amóooooor
Pre-Chorus
Si me atreviera a decírtelo, pero de verdad
mi mundo estallaría, se rompería mi realidad
si lo dijera... ay si lo dijera...
Chorus
Si te dijera que te amo
¿nos cogeríamos de la mano
o me colgarían de un árbol?
Si te dijera que te quiero
¿me abrasarías con tu fuego
o me convertirías en hielo?
No hace falta que contestes
(No hace falta que contestes)
Post-Chorus
Porque estos sueños son míos
y en tu mundo jamás he existido
Other – almost a cappella
Pues sí, para qué negarlo
yo
te ámo
te ámo
te ámooooooooooooooooooo

ENGLISH LYRICS
Intro – Spoken
Welcome to the crybaby's songs
so get ready to take out the tissues
because what you're about to hear
is pure drama in minor chords
Instrumental Intro – soft guitar and piano
Verse 1
I've been thinking about you all day
playing your last song on repeat
and I'd even made a promise
just in case I saw you, with little chance
And as I got out of the elevator, there you were
the warmth of my heart, my love
but I could only bow my head
and try to walk past you as if nothing had happened
It'll be the last time we see each other
until after the holidays
and who knows if we'll ever meet again
right now I feel lucky
But when your memory has taken root
I'll have to suffer again, like this, like this, like this
without knowing why you've gotten so deep inside me
that the rest of my life doesn't seem to make sense
Chorus
If I told you I love you
Would you believe me or call the police?
If I told you I love you
Would you smile or plan my burial?
You don't need to answer
(You don't need to answer)
Post-Chorus
Because these dreams are mine
And I will never have appeared in yours
Instrumental Break – melancholic piano and guitar
Verse 2
I don't know why I wreck my feelings like this
Sinking deeper every day, when I can't change a thing
But I can't say I regret it, because all of you inspires me
Guides me, pushes me, even if the precipice is too great to overcome
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really am
I can't help this, I don't want to
With you, without you, I'm already lost
Ohhh, oooooooooooooh
Chorus
If I told you I love you
Could I go back and lose myself in work?
If I told you I love you
Would you keep quiet?
Or would you tell me to go to hell?
You don't need to answer
(You don't need to answer)
Post-Chorus
Because these dreams are mine
and you've never seen me in yours
Instrumental Solo
Break – spoken, almost whispered
Several hours have passed
and I'm sure you're no longer here
I'll keep your image sitting there to myself
to relive the look when our eyes met
and I've felt that strong tremor inside my chest
I'm going to miss you
I'm going to dream of you
I'm going to cry for you
and of course
I won't stop loving you
No, no, no
nevereeeee my loveeee
Pre-Chorus
If I dared to tell you, but for real
my world would explode, my reality would shatter
if I said it... right there if I said it...
Chorus
If I told you I love you
would we hold hands
or Would they hang me from a tree?
If I told you I love you,
Would you set me ablaze with your fire
Or turn me to ice?
No need to answer
(No need to answer)
Post-Chorus
Because these dreams are mine
And in your world I have never existed
Other – almost a cappella
Well, yes, why deny it?
I
love you
I love you
I looooooove you
