Gavilán o Paloma [English translation]

You didn't stop looking, you were alone,

absolutely beautiful and sexy.

Something swept me towards you, like a wave,

and I went and I said, "hello, how are you".

That night, in your arms, I fell into the trap,

you caught the apprentice of seduction,

and I ate from your hand

becoming your humble servant.

My friend, you have to see what love is like,

it comes back to the one who takes it, hawk or dove.

Stupid me, naive talker

that I was a dove trying to be a hawk.

My friend, you have to see what love is like,

it comes back to the one who takes it, hawk or dove.

I was undressing you, slowly,

and you didn't let me even talk,

you only whispered, "I need you,

hold me more tightly, more".

When I looked at you, i felt disilusioned,

just your warmth made me fill cold,

little by little, from my arms, I let you go ,

and I said, 'be quiet, please'.

My friend, you have to see what love is like,

it comes back to the one who takes it, hawk or dove.

Stupid me, naive talker

that I was a dove trying to be a hawk.
