THE DAYS GO BY

“It's a song that talks about the moment you end a relationship that at a time was wonderful but then it became tempestuous. That moment when you realize that out of love you must let go of that person you love and accept that both of you must take different paths. Thanking for the learnings and loving the distance. A very painful step, but at the same time it confirms our own, the one will help us to rebuild a new reality in our lives. ” - Natalia Laforcade.

Lyric Video

 
 

  • Days pass by and I keep thinking of you
    Hours pass and I can’t manage to let go
    It’s so absurd to imagine that our love
    isn’t enough to bring us back together.

    Life passes by and I keep thinking
    we had everything to be fine with one another
    Thinking that distance could not destroy
    that space we built on our illusions.

    And tell me, how do I breathe?
    in this emptiness I am carrying inside
    Where did the spark between us go?
    I am begging you please don’t forget.

    Days pass by and I keep thinking of you
    Hours pass and I can’t manage to let go
    It’s so absurd to imagine that our love
    isn’t enough to bring us back together.

    Life passes by and I keep thinking
    we had everything to be fine with one another
    Thinking that distance could not destroy
    that space we built on our illusions.

    And tell me, how do I breathe?
    in this emptiness I am carrying inside
    Where did the spark between us go?
    I am begging you please don’t forget.

    I just want to love you
    I just want to hold you
    In this crazy universe, to watch you
    grow, loving you from afar.

    I just want to love you
    I just want to kiss you
    At this, our final goodbye,
    to watch you go away,
    loving you from afar

    I just want to love you
    I just want to hold you
    In this crazy universe, to watch you grow,
    loving you from afar
    I just want to love you
    I just want to kiss you
    At this, our final goodbye,
    to watch you go away,loving you from afar.
    I just want to, want to, want to hold you.
