Valeria Castro - La raíz (English translation)

English

Translation

The root

Everything floods and you think that it never touches the bullet in your chest and it's scary

And it all seems that in months you keep thinking that it was your fault anyway

And you're looking everywhere if anyone has cried

And your little eyes so wet haven't dried

And you that deserve so much, not everyone stays

And the sun doesn't stop rising because of that, nor do flowers stop blooming

What had to happen happened

And I don't plan on doing anything else

Other than staying here

Taking care of it

What had to happen happened

And I don't plan on doing anything else

Other than staying here

Taking care of the root

Taking care of it

And even though you cry sometimes, flowers need to have water even if it's not the right amount

And it's recurrent at the side of your forehead

A pair of eyes that ask forgiveness

And you that have always tried to be so careful

With what was close but not in your hands

And you should see the soul that's at your throat

That's the only way to learn to see the ocean at ease

What had to happen happened

And I don't plan on doing anything else

Other than staying here

Taking care of it

What had to happen happened

And I don't plan on doing anything else

Other than staying here

Taking care of the root

Taking care of it

What had to happen happened

And I don't plan on doing anything else

Other than staying here

Taking care of it

What had to happen happened

And I don't plan on doing anything else

Other than staying here

Taking care of the root

Taking care of it

Taking care of the root
