COSAS OLVIDADAS

Después de mucho... mucho tiempo
Recién ahora vuelvo a hablarte,
Qué sensación al escucharte
¡Parece que fuera ayer!
Ya ves... estoy mucho más viejo
Y vos igual a aquellos días,
Que tanto... tanto me querías
Ya nada queda... ¡Todo se fue!

Son cosas olvidadas
Esos viejos amores,
Y al evocar tiempos mejores
Se van nublando nuestras miradas.
Son cosas olvidadas
Que vuelven desteñidas,
Y en la soledad de nuestras vidas
Abren heridas al corazón...!

Hay en tu voz un dejo triste
De penas y melancolía...
Y a su conjuro el alma mía
Se esfuerza por no llorar.
Es que a los dos nos hizo daño
Resucitar las horas muertas,
Y el corazón abrió sus puertas
A la tristeza de recordar...!

THINGS FORGOTTEN

After a very... a long, long time,
I came to speak to you again just now.
What a feeling to hear you,
it seems like only yesterday.
You see... I'm much older now
and you're the same, in those times,
you loved me so, so much,
now nothing is left... all gone!

They are things forgotten,
those old loves,
and, recalling better times,
our eyes mist up.
These are things forgotten
that return faded and,
in the solitude of our lives,
open up the heart's wounds.

There is, in your voice, a tinge of sadness,
of sorrow and sombreness...
and, under its spell, my soul
strives not to weep.
It's just that we both cause ourselves pain
going back over those times that are gone
and our hearts open up their gates
to the sadness of remembering.
