So, Shakira was invited to do a duet with Miguel Bose for his greatest hits album, for which he re-recorded 30 of his greatest hits and turned them all into duets with famous singers. Shakira's duet was for his song "Si Tu No Vuelves" (If You Don't Return), which she called "the most beautiful song ever written." I recently downl bought the album and found that, despite my love for her, Shakira's duet was definitely the strongest song among them all; so much so that all the other songs seem like nothing in comparison. And the lyrics are indeed beautiful and well-written.
Si Tu No Vuelves - Miguel Bose feat. Shakira
If you don't return all the waters in the seas will dry up
And I will wait without you holding on to a deep memory
If you don't return my will will become insignificant
And I will remain here with my dog catching sight of horizons
If you don't return nothing but deserts will remain
And I will listen for any remaining heartbeats left in this land
That was so serene when you loved me
A fresh scent there was that I breathed
It was so beautiful
It was so bountiful
And it was endless
And each night a star will come to keep me company
It will tell you how I am and what's left of me
And my love, my love, my love, here I am, don't you see?
If you don't return there won't be life
I won't know what to do
If you don't return there will be neither hope nor anything
I will walk without you while my sorrow consumes the rain
That was so serene when you loved me
A fresh scent there was that I breathed
It was so beautiful
It was so bountiful
And it was endless
And each night a star will come to keep me company
It will tell you how I am and what's left of me
And my love, my love, my love, here I am, don't you see?
If you don't return there won't be life
I won't know what to do
And each night a star will come to keep me company
It will tell you how I am and what's left of me
And my love, my love, my love, here I am, don't you see?
If you don't return there won't be life
I won't know what to do
I won't know what to do
I won't know what to do
If you don't return there won't be life
I won't know what to do
