Hay recuerdos que no voy a borrar
personas que no voy a olvidar
silencios que prefiero callar
hay secretos en el fondo del mar
personas que me quiero llevar
aromas que no quiero olvidar
silencios que prefiero callar
There are memories I'm not gonna erase
people I'm not gonna forget
silences I'd rather shut
there are secrets at the bottom of the sea
people that I want to take with me
scents I don't want to forget
silences I'd rather shut
