Procura hablarle tú [English translation]

Explain to her, if you can without hurting her,

why am I leaving without saying to her goodbye.

I don’t like the farewells; (1)

what is beautiful is at the beginning of love.

Tell her that it has not been an adventure,

that I have even managed to win her heart,

that she must forget who was to blame;

the life is to blame and no one else.

Please, try to tell her,

you, who knows her

better than I do,

try to make her see,

that it’s impossible

to start again,

to start again.

I never hide from anyone my madness,

my capricious way of loving;

tell her she must understand and forgive my attitude

because I am hardly able to change myself.

You know it is not easy to forget her,

because there have been the nights to remember,

but this is the way I am, what can I do about it,

I am not a bird that is easy to catch.
