Lyrics of Piel Canela (Cinnamon Skin) - Linda Ronstadt

Piel Canela (Cinnamon Skin) (original)

Que se quede el infinito sin estrellas
O que pierda el ancho mar su immensidad
Pero el negro de us ojos que no muera
Y el canela de tu piel se quede igual
Si perdiera el arco iris su belleza
Y las flores su perfume y su color
No sería tan inmensa mi tristeza
Como aquélla de quedarme sin tu amor
Me importas tú
Y tú y tú
Y solamente tú
Y tú y tú
Me importas tú
Y tú y tú
Y nadie más que tú
Ojos negros piel canela
Que me llegan a desesperar
Me importas tú
Y tú y tú
Y solamente tú
Y tú y tú
Me importas tú
Y tú y tú
Y nadie más que tú
Me importas tú
Y tú y tú
Y solamente tú
Y tú y tú
Me importas tú
Y tú y tú
Y nadie más que tú
Ojos negros piel canela
Que me llegan a desesperar
Me importas tú
Y tú y tú
Y solamente tú
Y tú y tú
Me importas tú
Y tú y tú
Y nadie más que tú
Y nadie más que tú
Piel Canela
(Cinnamon Skin)
Let the universe be without stars
Or the wide sea lose its immensity
But don’t ever let the blackness of your eyes die
And keep the cinnamon of your skin as it is
If the rainbow were to lose its beauty
And the flowers their perfume and color
My sadness wouldn’t be as great
As it would be without yourlove
Your are my everything
You
And you alone
You are all that matters
You
And no one else
Black eyes, cinnamon skin
That make me despair
You are everything…

(translation)

May infinity be left without stars
Or that the wide sea loses its immensity
But the black of your eyes that does not die
And the cinnamon on your skin stays the same
If the rainbow lost its beauty
And the flowers their perfume and their color
My sadness would not be so immense
Like the one to stay without your love
I care about you
and you and you
And only you
and you and you
I care about you
and you and you
and no one but you
black eyes cinnamon skin
that make me desperate
I care about you
and you and you
And only you
and you and you
I care about you
and you and you
and no one but you
I care about you
and you and you
And only you
and you and you
I care about you
and you and you
and no one but you
black eyes cinnamon skin
that make me desperate
I care about you
and you and you
And only you
and you and you
I care about you
and you and you
and no one but you
and no one but you
Brownish skin
(Cinnamon Skin)
Let the universe be without stars
Or the wide sea lose its immensity
But don't ever let the blackness of your eyes die
And keep the cinnamon of your skin as it is
If the rainbow were to lose its beauty
And the flowers their perfume and color
My sadness wouldn't be as great
As it would be without your love
Your are my everything
You
And you alone
You are all that matters
You
And no one else
Black eyes, cinnamon skin
That make me despair
You are everything…
