Paloma I Want to Tell You

Paloma Quiero Contarte

Paloma I want to tell youPaloma quiero contarte
that I am alone,que estoy solo,
that I love you.que te quiero.
That life is ending for meQue la vida se me acaba
because I have you so far away,porque te tengo tan lejos,
little dove I want to see you.palomita verte quiero.

I cry with every memoryLloro con cada recuerdo
even though I hold back.a pesar que me contengo.
I cry with anger outwardLloro con rabia pa' fuera
but very deeply inside,pero muy hondo pa' dentro,
little dove I want to see you.palomita verte quiero.

Like a walnut tree trunkComo tronco de nogal
like the stone of the hillcomo la piedra del cerro
a man can be a manel hombre puede ser hombre
when he walks straight,cuando camina derecho,
little dove I want to see you.palomita verte quiero.

How to remove from the soulCómo quitarme del alma
what left me black,lo que me dejaron negro,
always turned outwardsiempre estar vuelto hacia afuera
to take care of oneself inside,para cuidarse por dentro,
little dove I want to see you.palomita verte quiero.
