Piel Canela

I went to Los with Janice on Friday night for dinner. There were singers there. One from Domincan Republic, and one from Mexico.
The guy from Dominican Republic came up to me and said he was going to sing a song dedicated to me called 'Piel Canela'. I was very flattered, because the song was amazing when they sang it to me. Here are the lyrics in English and Spanish. Music makes you really feel better when everything else pales...

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 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...

Piel Canela- Spanish
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 seria tan inmensa mi tristeza
Como aquella de quedarme sin tu amor
Me importas tu
Y tu y tu
Y solamente tu
Y nadie mas que tu
Ojos negros piel canela
Que me llegan a desesperar
Y nadie mas que tu
Y nadie mas que tu

They also sang Guantanamera for us too!
