Lyrics of Y Si No Existieras (Y Si No Has De Volver) (Et Si Tu N'Existais Pas) - Joe Dassin

Y Si No Existieras (Y Si No Has De Volver) (Et Si Tu N'Existais Pas) (original)

Y si tú no has de volver dime por qué yo viviré?
Para estarme en un mundo sin ti
Sin esperanza ni fe
Y si tú no has de volver para inventar el amor
El pintor lleva bajo el pincel los colores que se van
Y que no volverán
Y si tú no has de volver, dime por qué yo viviré?
Días tristes de gran soledad, y no amare jamás
Y si tú no has de volver sería un marido más
En el mundo que viene y que va
Pobre mi vida será si no estás aquí
Y si tú no has de volver, dime por qué yo viviré?
Yo podría tratar de cambiar, pero no sé en verdad
Y si tú no has de volver creo que descubriré
El secreto de vida y por qué, sólo para inventar
Alguien igual a ti
Y si tú no has de volver dime por qué yo viviré?
Para estarme en un mundo sin ti
Sin esperanza ni fe
Y si tú no has de volver dime por qué yo viviré?
Para estarme en un mundo sin ti...

(translation)

And if you don't have to come back tell me why I will live?
To be in a world without you
without hope or faith
And if you don't have to come back to invent love
The painter takes under the brush the colors that leave
and they won't come back
And if you don't come back, tell me why will I live?
Sad days of great loneliness, and I will never love
And if you don't have to come back I would be another husband
In the world that comes and goes
My life will be poor if you're not here
And if you don't come back, tell me why will I live?
I could try to change but I don't really know
And if you don't have to come back I think I'll discover
The secret of life and why, just to invent
someone just like you
And if you don't have to come back tell me why I will live?
To be in a world without you
without hope or faith
And if you don't have to come back tell me why I will live?
To be in a world without you...
