El riesgo del amor

Me olvidé que en el amor

unos ganan y otros pierden,

y yo no sé que cartas jugar,

no quiero perderte para siempre.

No hay victoria sin riesgo,

ni hay derrotas o dolor,

no puedo luchar con lo que siento

pero lo que tengo lo doy.

Pues decidí creer a mi corazón

y, con el tuyo, puedo decir

que jamás me he sentido mejor,

que sin ti no sería feliz.

Yo solo necesito tu amor,

que me muestres lo que sientes;

yo no puedo luchar por los dos

y solo mi amor me mantiene.

Y si logramos salir de esta utopía

en la cual muchos no creen,

se acabarán las noches frías

para que nuestros corazones sueñen.

Y volaremos al abrigo de nuestro hogar

donde no habrá lugar para el dolor,

y la confianza, unida a nuestra fidelidad,

hará que sea eterno nuestro amor.

Our place is together

The way you show me you love me

inspires me to write you these verses

which are born in the deepest of my heart

to answer the love of our caresses.

It was in you where I found more

than what I was ever looking for,

Our lives were made to coexist together,

to love each other and love our Lord.

He will always show us the way

where we'll find our biggest happiness,

that's beside you, not other place,

and the way is trust and forgiveness.

You are the only one with who I wanna build

the castle of illusions where I save my dreams,

I know together we'll find the key to live

on a wonderful life where we are complete.

Because everyday I spend with You

is like refreshing water from the rain,

and my love grows, and this is true,

I would share my life with You, again.

Mi reposo

Mi alma está en reposo, puedo confiar en mi Señor;

aún en la espesa niebla de la noche,

cuando mi alrededor se escapa a mi visión,

confiaré en sus eternas palabras

porque sé que en sus manos estoy.

Evitaré los caminos fangosos

que quieran retrasar mi porvenir,

y con su ayuda atravesaré la estrechura

del camino que sé he de seguir.

En su mente reside mi futuro;

en sus manos mi presente está;

la luz que emana de su brillante mirada

disipa del pasado cualquier oscuridad...

Confío en Dios, mi guía,

mi fe en él permanecerá,

por aguas tranquilas me llevará,
mi alma puede descansar

A love like this

Here I am, thinking of you, like usually...

but today this feeling is stronger;

memories pull my heart to You

and I can't wait any longer.

Waiting time is running out

so my heart beats faster and faster,

I can be dreaming of you

when overnight I light a candle.

And I imagine everyday

the moment when we'll meet,

the embracing of our bodies,

the shock of what we'll feel.

And when the day comes,

when we see each other,

I will let my heart be free

and love will flow to my lover;

my eyes will shine in your look

and I will hold your hands again,

and when I hear your first words

I'll know it was worth to wait...

And my mind will start to imagine

that my lips steals you a tender kiss,

and that's the moment I will think:

I never found a love like this.

The wait

I'm going through the wait I never thought I would have,

like from winter to autumn, which leads to winter again.

I'm looking for the easier way, but I can only find fog,

I should fly over the wind, leaving back the past, if I could...

But every step I do reminds me your voice inside me,

stirring up all my thoughts until I find myself at the moon,

making me dependent of the moments we still have to live,

then my blindness allows me only thinking of you.

I'd like to be a bird's song, so that you could hear me everyday,

and I'd like to be a dream to stay all night in your mind.

I need to feel you now and here, from my inside,

I feel I'm dying without those sweet words around me.

Why is fate so cruel, making us being far away?

My heart is drowning in this infinite sea of love,

I grieve my soul when it feels far from his soulmate;

needs to feel wrapped by you, amid this eternal cold.

Hope encourages me to look to the sky, time after time,

to find the melodies which are born in our hearts,

they will bring me to a new place, far away from the pain,

and I'll remember everyday that future is in our hands.

Esto es amor

Conoces mis ojos cuando quieren preguntar algo,

conoces mis labios cuando necesitan un beso,

sabes en qué momento pide caricias mi mano,

y si anhelo un abrazo, me regalas uno de esos.

Enjuagas mis lágrimas ofreciéndome tu hombro,

sabes en qué momento necesito tu sonrisa,

si necesito abrigo, entre tus brazos me amoldo

y me extiendes tu mano cuando mis pies se deslizan.

Y es al fijarme en estos detalles

que sospecho que no es ilusión,

principios que no tienen finales,

la historia infinita entre tú y yo.

Sueños exportados de lugares

donde sólo hay lugar para dos,

brazos que esperan que los abrace

son caricias de nuestro interior.

Promesas que, al cumplirse, renacen,

recuerdos que se conciben hoy,

palabras que nunca llegan tarde,

miradas que conceden perdón.

Caminos que llevan, al juntarse,

a un viaje a nuestro corazón,

y pienso que será interminable

y se me ocurre que esto es amor.

When rain's coming

Write me when rain's coming,

so it will be one of those times

I feel your voice through the drops

around me, inside me...

You and me, you with me,

we have some special sound,

I can hear it when we're together,

I can feel it will be forever.

Time besides you ran fast, babe,

but now I'm on the desert.

I thought we could take it easy

but my soul is crying as never.

You are all I always dreamt, and

I can't understand why now we must wait,

but I know it will make us stronger,

in time we will be unbreakable lovers.

You will take all of me

and I'll embrace you all the night

like in our first time,

like in our first time...

And I know I still mustn't talk about love,

but may be is felt on these verses,

that's because feelings are not mute

so they make themselves to know,

to know to who can feel them.

In time, bit to bit, they will be stronger,

deep and sincere like we never knew.

In time, bit to bit, everything will be easier,
trust will make of us inseparable.
