Well, I was too late to write my congratulatory post to Euro 08 because the thread was closed. So I will write it here.
My ex is visiting me this weekend from New Orleans, so I had to juggle with my passion for Futbol and other people not understanding it. She used to put up a lot of fight. I mean not just about Futbol but sharing my passion and time with anything in general. Time heels the wounds. Now I'm just happy that she's happy and doing lot of good work down in New Orleans.
All the disappointments and resenments scattered in the time apart, all that I seem to remember is the passion. Then I thought maybe that's how the Spaniards feels now holding this Cup again after so many years apart. Maybe I will find a way to write about the actaul game in some other thread when i'm not drunk and emotional. But here is a tribue to the all the passionate lovers that reunited this weekend like the Spanish and the Cup, the first Spanish song I can remember.......
Hey
Hey!
no vayas presumiendo por ahí
diciendo que no puedo estar sin ti
tú qué sabes de mi.
Hey!
ya sé que a ti te gusta presumir
decir a los amigos que sin ti
ya no puedo vivir.
Hey!
no creas que te haces un favor
cuando hablas a la gente de mi amor
y te burlas de mi.
Hey!
que hay veces que es mejor querer así
que ser querido y no poder sentir
lo que siento por ti.
Ya ves
tú nunca me has querido ya lo ves
que nunca he sido tuyo ya lo sé
fue sólo por orgullo ese querer
Ya ves
de que te vale ahora presumir
ahora que no estoy ya junto a ti
que les dirás de mi.
Hey!
recuerdo que ganabas siempre tú
que fillas de ese triunfo una virtud
yo era sombra y tú luz.
Hey!
no sé si tú también recordarás
que siempre que intentaba hacer la paz
yo era un río en tu mar.
Ya ves
tú nunca me has querido ya lo ves
que nunca he sido tuyo ya lo sé
fue sólo por orgullo ese querer
Ya ves
de que te vale ahora presumir
ahora que no estoy ya junto a ti
que les dirás de mi.
Hey!
ahora que ya todo terminó
que como siempre soy el perdedor
cuando pienses en mi.
Hey!
no creas que te guardo algún rencor
es siempre más feliz quien más amó
y ese siempre fui yo.
Ya ves
tú nunca me has querido ya lo ves
que nunca he sido tuyo ya lo sé
fue sólo por orgullo ese querer...
Hey (English)
Hey!
It's wonderful to see you once again
to see your smile and hear you call my name
there is so much to say.
Hey!
It isn't accidental that we met
your love is something that I can't forget
so I wander your way.
Hey!
If one of us won't try to dry the tears
tomorrow is the world of yesteryears
let us live for today.
Hey!
Although we played a game of love and lost
I wouldn't change a single dream because
if you lose you must pay.
It's true
I've have so many others loves to share
but I will close my eyes and you'll be there
no matter where I go, you're ev'rywhere Er, Er...
If you
come back to me and see how much I care
I only want to live if you are there
to give your love to me.
Hey!
Don't let me spend another day alone
remember all the happiness we've known
lets relive yesterday.
Hey!
We've known a world of loneliness and pain
we'll never make the same mistakes again
may if only you'll stay.
It's true
I've have so many others loves to share
but I will close my eyes and you'll be there
no matter where I go, you're everywhere Er, Er...
If you
come back to me and see how much I care
I only want to live if you are there
to be with you I'd travel anywhere Er, Er
It's true...
