When my girlfriend and I were going out, this was our song, it kinda says what I felt for her, and still feel ...
But we're not together anymore, even though I love her so deeply (and I know she still loves me too). But when I hear the song or watch the video I think about her and pray just like Juanes does... to God to bring her back some day. I don't give a damn about how cute this colombian guy is, but I feel related to this song ... like he's speaking out for me...
que mis ojos se despierten
(I wish that my eyes wake up)
con la luz de tu mirada
(with the light of your eyes)
yo a dios le pido
(I pray to God)
que mi madre no se muera
(I wish my mother won't die)
y que mi padre me recuerde
(and my father remembers me)
que te quedes a mi lado
(I wish you stay by my side)
y que mas nunca te me vayas mi vida
(and never ever leave my life)
que mi alma no descanse
(that my soul don't rest)
cuando de amarte se trate mi cielo
(when it comes to love you, my darling)
por los dias que me quedan
(for the days I have left)
y las noches que aun no llegan
(and the nights that are still to come)
por los hijos de mis hijos
(for the children of my children)
y los hijos de tus hijos
(and the children of your children)
que mi pueblo no derrame tanta sangre
(I wish my people won't spill so much blood)
y se levante mi gente
(and my folks raise up)
que mi alma no descanse
(that my soul don't rest)
cuando de amarte se trate mi cielo
(when it comes to love you, my darling)
un segundo mas de vida para darte
(one more second of life, to give you)
y mi corazon entero entregarte
(so I can give you all my heart)
un segundo mas de vida para darte
(one more second of life, to give you)
y a tu lado para siempre yo quedarme
(and by your side for always stay)
un segundo mas de vida yo
(one more second of life, I)
a dios le pido
(pray to God)
que si me muero sea de amor
(And if I die, I die for love)
y si me enamoro sea de vos
(and If I fall in love, I fall for you)
y que de tu voz sea este corazon
(and this heart, belongs to your voice)
todos los dias a dios le pido(2x)
(every day, I pray to God)
