memories of an old song

this sunless day is all mine
hits my windows, so cold
an old song in my guitar
an old song can't be forgotten
its the same that one day got us together
in far away beaches of your old country
and the autumn sees your leaves fall
comes to me and gets me wet with its gray drizzle
 
Why is it that I can't forget your song?
is it because I loved you so much
and while sitting in this room
on this same table
last night i cried for you
Why is it that I can't forget your song?
if the river leaves it doesn't come back
eternal clock of the hours
and this song that cries
on my large window
la la la....
 
hardships don't die just to die
never is love dead for a forgotten thing
neither is your smile dead in my room
while i smoke late at night, your with me
 
with a injured compass I am sailing
my sailboat smoked out by a cigarette
it leans on your distant port
once again picks up its anchors with no return
 
Why is it that I can't forget your song?
is it because I loved you so much
and while sitting in this room
on this same table
last night i cried for you
Why is it that I can't forget your song?
if the river leaves it doesn't come back
eternal clock of the hours
and this song that cries
on my large window
la la la....

Hola ticia,
I was translating this song and Kevin submitted his version before I did.
I want to say that I don't find any errors in the lyrics, except "cuerpo --> puerto". Certainly there are some peculiar metaphors, but the idea is clear and romantic.
Anyway, I would like to post my version, if you don't mind.
