Now you
Before you, no,
I didn't believe in Romeos, Juliets, dying of love.
Those dramas didn't steal my tranquility,
but the story has changed, mmmmm...
but this story changed me.
They say that you know if a love is true
when it hurts so much, like teeth in the soul.
They say that ours is only fleeting,
but what do people know
what I feel when they're silent.
And now you,
you came to me, love,
and with no more tales,
you aim directly at the center of the soul.
And now you,
you came to me, oh, no,
with no prior warning, without a permit,
just like that.

Thank you, Rosa.
1. I don't think it would be misinterpreted, it's like saying "you yourself know, etc", with yourself being implied.
2. Tales or stories would both be correct.
3. You know, I had originally put "just like that", but I thought that maybe it would be a translation for "así como así". I like 'just like that' better anyway, so I'm changing it back.
Thanks for your suggestions.

About translator
Great translation, Freda. Just three tings, the way I see it:
1 "They say that you know...". I know this is correct but, don't you think that "you know" may be misinterpreted thinking he/she is addressing to somebody in particular? What about "one knows"?
2. "tales" If I say "stories", would that be correct?
3. "como si nada" (common Spanish expression), I would say "just like that".
Gracias.
