I haven't a clue which song describes me. My boyfriend (spanish is his second language) says this one:

El Breve Espacio En Que No Estas - Pablo Milanes - The Brief Space In Which You Are Not
Todavia quedan restos de humedad,
There is still a trace of humidity,
sus olores llenan ya mi soledad,
her scent fills now my solitude,
en la cama su silueta se dibuja cual promesa
on the bed is drawn her silhouette as a promise
de llenar el breve espacio en que no esta.
to fill the brief space in which she is not.
Todavia yo no sé si volvera, nadie sabe,
I still do not know whether she will return, noone knows,
al dia siguiente, lo que hara.
the next day what they will do.
Rompe todos mis esquemas,
She ruins all of my plans,
no confiesa ni una pena,
she does not admit to even one fault,
no me pide nada a cambio de lo que da.
she does not ask for anything in exchange for what she gives.
Suele ser violenta y tierna,
She tends to be violent yet tender,
no habla de uniones eternas,
she does not speak of eternal union,
mas se entrega cual si hubiera
but she gives herself as if there were
sólo un dia para amar.
only one day for love.
No comparte una reunión,
She does not partake in gatherings,
mas le gusta la canción que comprometa su pensar.
but she is fond of the song that compels her thoughts.
Todavia no pregunté "¿te quedaras?".
I still have not asked, "will you stay?"
Temo mucho a la respuesta de un "jamas".
I am very much afraid of a response of "never".
La prefiero compartida antes que vaciar mi vida,
I would rather share her than empty out my life,
no es perfecta mas se acerca a lo que yo
she is not perfect but she is close to what I
simplemente soñé...
simply dreamed of...
BTW, Awildflower, I really enjoyed your posts to my song thread.
