Porque te vas [English translation]

Today the sun shines through my window

and my heart

saddens as it looks at the city

because you're leaving...

I awoke every night

thinking of you

and I saw the hours pass by on my clock

because you're leaving...

[Chorus]

All my promises of love

will go with you (and)

you'll forget me

you'll forget me.

Today, beside the station

I'll cry like a child

because you're leaving...

because you're leaving...

Beneath the gloomy street light

they will be put to rest

all the things left unsaid

will be put to rest.

Beside the clock's hands,

they will wait1

all the hours that didn't come to pass

they will wait!

[Chorus]

All my promises of love

will go with you (and)

you'll forget me

you'll forget me.

Today, beside the station

I'll cry like a child

because you're leaving...

because you're leaving...

1. all the hours
