Only your footprints remained
on the sand of my beach.
The night left quickly
with the arrival of the dawn,
and a sad sun is insinuated
already in the horizon.
My soul cries with your departure!
Only your footprints remained
on the sand of my beach.
The summer night finished.
The summer left in search
of the autumn, sadly,
and I am keeping my solitude
here on the beach.
My soul cries with your departure.
I see you leave
and I stay!
You go away slowly,
until fading in the distance.
Your footprints marked the road
of your good-bye, and wrote
on the sand, I will always love you,
but I have to leave.
You arrived late to my life.
My soul cries with your departure!
I saw you leave,
and I only stayed
with your sweet memory,
and your footprints on the sand, yes,
those that the waves of the sea
couldn't erase from our beach!
Only your footprints remained...
