Sylvia and Salvador: Music

• MP3 short clip, hi-fi play (broadband)

I have a very dear friend who survived a bitter divorce.  She is alone now, and pretends to be happy, when she really isn't.

13) Estas Sola  (You Are Alone)

You live alone, I know.
You are alone and without love,
Pretending that your life is happy without it being so.

Crying, nothing more,
Sighing to have my love again
The love you scorned for no reason.

You continue to be alone, I know
Without affection or warmth
With no one at your side
To love or understand you.

No one to watch over you or please you,
Or to share with you the joy that you felt
At my side.

I miss you, and I do not deceive myself
When I tell you how I feel
I invite you to return, to forget
Your loneliness and stay at my side.

I, too, live alone
Alone and sad without your love
I love you more than ever
Even though you are no longer here with me

I cry, as you do
I sigh from the pain of loss
I gave you all the love within me

Let’s forget the past
Let’s forget the bitterness
Let’s reunite our lives, with even stronger love
With openness and comprehension
Things so simple to achieve.
