Mi Corazon

It was late one night, up in Washington heights.
I was on my own and that wasn't too bright.
The stage was set and I came collecting.
Pickin' up a debt not worth mentioning.
I used to love a girl from just this block.
We used to rock to salsa and salsa to rock.
You know how shit goes.
Time ticks and tocks.
If you asked me if I love her.
I'd have to say lots.
Back to the story.
I was out on the stoop, with a man in a headlock, gettin' my loot.
I thought I heard my name and I quickly turned around, my heart just froze and I couldn't make a sound.
In just one moment my whole vibe changed, it was the love of my life and she really looked the same.
And when I say the same I really mean better, and when I say better, I mean you'd never forget her.
Mi corazon
When our eyes met, I knew how much I'd hurt her.
I traded money for love and went even further.
I started drinkin' a lot and abusing myself.
She loved me but left me, couldn't do nothing else.
Three years has passed, I always think about her.
Never loved nobody else.
Probably never will.
I asked her about her life, tried to turn the page.
She laughed in my face, said act your age.
I said "
This ain't no rap, I care about you".
She said
she liked the lyrics, but they wouldn't do.
She said she loves me but it kills her, alright?
She found another man, gonna become his wife.
I said "
That's crazy!
You're foolin' yourself!". "
He aint better than you" she said, turned around and left.
Family never founded.
She's just walkin' away.
I'll be here when you need me.
My heart is that way...
Mi corazon
Usted es mi vida.
Soy yo mi amor...
Mi corazon
