Soy Amiga (english Translation) Lyrics - Selena

"I'm A Friend" 

----------------------------------------------- 

Please remember! This translation is my personal work. It is sometimes difficult to translate word for word from Spanish to English, so it may sound awkward in one languange when it is perfectly natural in the other. But I think you can get the general idea! 

----------------------------------------------- 

I wake up again lost, 

Lost in the darkness 

I lie here thinking, 

dreaming that you are beside me 

I forget my sadness 

and for awhile I don't feel my suffering 

Again my thoughts 

fill my being 

I look at you and want you 

Later I regret it, upon realizing 

that you'll never be mine 

and I shouldn't think that way 

Because I'm only a friend 

Only a friend 

I can only be in your life 

another person to talk to 

without sharing love 

Distant from your life, 

a slave to your heart 

Because I'm only a friend 

Only a friend 

So much is my anguish 

of seeing you and not having you 

Very close to your life 

Maybe one day you'll be able to see me
