My translation skills at work! :o)

This is one of my favorite spanish language groups! ;) A friend wanted to know what the words meant, so I wrote down the words to the song and translated it as best as I know how. I think I did a pretty good job!

ALEJATE DE MI  by Camila
Alejate de mi, y hazlo pronto desde que te mienta get away from me, and do it soon while I lie to you
tus cielo hace gris yo ya camina bajo la tormenta your sky turned grey and I'm walking under the storm
Alejate de me, escapa, vete, ya no debo verte get away from me, escape, GO, I shouldn't see you
entiende que aunque pida que te vayas no quiero perderte understand that although I ask you to leave, I don't want to loose you
La luz ya no alcanza the light no longer reaches
no quieres caminar sobre el dolor descalza you don't want to walk upon the pain barefoot
Un angel te quida an angel is caring for you
y puso en mi boca la verdad para mostrarte la sailda and put in my mouth the words to demonstrate to you the way to leave
Y alejate de mi amor and get away from me love
ya se que aun estas a tiempo even though you are in time
no soy quien en verdad paresco y perdon I'm not who I truly appear to be and pardon me
no soy quien crees yo no cai del cielo I'm not who you think I am, I did not fall from heaven
Si aun no me lo crees amor and even if you don't believe me love
y quieres tu correr el reisgo and you want to run the risk
veras que soy realmente bueno en enganar y hacer sufrir you will see I am truly good at decieving and causing suffering
a quien mas quiero (x2) to whom I love the most
Alejate de mi get away from me
pues ya sabes que no te merezco you already know that I don't deserve you
quisiera arrepentirme, ser el mismo y no decirte eso I wish I could repent, be the same and not tell you this

Alejate de me, escapa, vete, ya no debo verte get away from me, escape, GO, I shouldn't see you
entiende que aunque pida que te vayas no quiero perderte understand that although I ask you to leave, I don't want to loose you
La luz ya no alcanza the light no longer reaches
no quieres caminar sobre el dolor descalza you don't want to walk upon the pain barefoot
Un angel te quida an angel is caring for you
y puso en mi boca la verdad para mostrarte la sailda and put in my mouth the words to demonstrate to you the way to leave
Y alejate de mi amor and get away from me love
ya se que aun estas a tiempo even though you are in time
no soy quien en verdad paresco y perdon I'm not who I truly appear to be and pardon me
no soy quien crees yo no cai del cielo I'm not who you think I am, I did not fall from heaven
Si aun no me lo crees amor and even if you don't believe me love
y quieres tu correr el reisgo and you want to run the risk
veras que soy realmente bueno en enganar y hacer llorar you will see I am truly good at decieving and making you cry 
a quien mas quiero (x2) to whom I love the most
