about

With a dramatic and dark mood, Elizabeth’s first composition in English was inspired by the emotions around a difficult breakup and the strength that comes from realizing that you’ll survive and can still love.

lyrics

MIL PALABRAS

From a glance come a thousand words Sounding like an echo
And they beat by themselves.
Out of pain come out the sores
That melt with the wind
And they let the waves pass.

Other things come from lack of love
I did not know that they existed
But they have filled me all.
From darkness you are light
And with it shines the new being
That exists and cries.

New kisses come out as flowers
Insatiable desires
That does not stop even if you cry
Needless to say, forgive me
For every sad goodbye I asked you
Without concessions.

Although it hurts
I know it will pass
Next to you, time runs endlessly
Do not let me go
We're going to wait
Although the bitterness I can not hide.
I want to start
And get to the end
And leave the traces that see me leave
I will not come back
To the darkness
Better to love again and never look back.

If you knew how much I would give
To cure every moment
Sad and lonely of your life
But first I would have
To fix my heart
That someone left destroyed.

With your eyes I reach infinity
How much bravery you have given to this little heart
I'm not afraid, I just need,
That you promise me that love
That nobody can find anywhere.


De una mirada salen mil palabras
Que resuenan como eco
Y palpitan por si solas.
Del dolor salen salen nuevas llagas
Que se curan con el tiempo
si dejas pasar las horas.

Del desamor nacen otras cosas
Que no sabia que existian
Pero me han colmado toda.
De la oscuridad eres la luz
Y con ella alumbra el nuevo ser
Que existe y llora.

De nuevos besos salen como flores
Deseos insaciables
Que no paran aunque llores
De mas esta decir que me perdones
Por cada triste adios que te pedi
Sin concesiones.

Aunque duele aun
Se que pasara
Junto a ti el tiempo corre sin parar
No me dejes ir
Vamos a esperar
Aunque el trago amargo no pueda ocultar.
Quiero comenzar
Y llegar al fin
Y dejar las huellas que me vean partir
No regresare
A la oscuridad
Más vale querer y no mirar atras.

Si tu supieras cuanto yo daria
Por curar cada momento
Triste y solo de tu vida
Pero primero yo tendria
Que reparar mi corazon
Que me han dejado hecho astillas.

Con tu mirada llego al infinito
Que valentia tu le has dado a este corazoncito
No tengo miedo, solo necesito,
Que me prometas ese amor
Que no se halla en cualquier sitio.
