Duele El Corazón Lyrics English Translation by Carlos Vives
I wake up again in the middle of the dark night
And even my dreams know you’re not coming back
I thought I’d forget you, that it was just another crazy thing
But the nostalgia hits and I’m missing you again
I thought I’d moved on, innocent and done with it
But the feeling’s too strong and I have to sing
My heart hurts, how much it’s suffering without your love
Carrying its pain in silence, how much it’s suffering
My heart hurts because it doesn’t have a dream anymore
Because it’s got no reason left to live happy
I swore I wouldn’t write you any more songs
And move out of this neighborhood where I was happy
But I stayed here in silence, sitting on the edge
Remembering the moments, unable to sleep
And if I ever leave someday, I’ll come back to this land
The feeling’s so strong and I have to sing
My heart hurts, how much it’s suffering without your love
Carrying its pain in silence, how much it’s suffering
My heart hurts because it doesn’t have a dream anymore
Because it’s got no reason left to live happy
Oh, cry, cry, cry, my heart
‘Cause sadness cleanses your soul
It’s in the dark when the sun comes out
It’s at the end when love saves you
Oh, cry, cry, cry, my heart
There are no words to explain it
How can you die for love?
Then survive to tell the story
My heart hurts because it’s suffering without your love
Because it doesn’t have a dream anymore, how much it’s suffering
My heart hurts because it doesn’t have a dream anymore
Because it’s got no reason left to live happy
I wake up again in the middle of the dark night
