niñita dulcecita (sweet girl)

"Niñita dulcecita,

you're too sweet,

you're too weak."

"Niñita dulcecita,

you're too nice for your own good,

you wouldn't be mean if you could."

"Niñita dulcecita,

why are you sad?

Why aren't you ever mad?"

"Niñita dulcecita,

I would love you if I could,

but seeing you now, I don't know if I should."

"Niñita dulcecita,

what's wrong today?

Can't you say?"

"Niñita dulcecita,

tell me what's on your mind,

I'll give you my time."

"Niñita dulcecita,

this isn't working out,

you've cried so much I can't count."

"Niñita dulcecita,

tell me, what are your tears for?

If I left, would there be more?"

"Niñita dulcecita,

I can't do this anymore,

take my bags, set them outside the door."

"Niñita dulcecita,

goodbye cariño, let me be,

when you have your shit figured out, call me."

Estaba la niñita dulcecita de el, cariño también,

pero el no estaba mi cariño, mi amor.

Estaba mi fuego,

pero mi corazón esta frío,

y el no puede encenderlo.
