We've caught your eye across the milonga. Like any good tango, this starts with consent — nothing optional runs until you say so.Cookies only with your yes. What we store.

Lyrics

Español

¡Afuera es noche y llueve tanto!... Ven a mi lado, me dijiste, hoy tu palabra es como un manto... un manto grato de amistad... Tu copa es ésta, y la llenaste. Bebamos juntos, viejo amigo, dijiste mientras levantabas tu fina copa de champán... La historia vuelve a repetirse, mi muñequita dulce y rubia, el mismo amor... la misma lluvia... el mismo, el mismo loco afán... ¿Te acuerdas? Hace justo un año nos separamos sin un llanto... Ninguna escena, ningún daño... Simplemente fue un 'Adiós' inteligente de los dos... Tu copa es ésta, y nuevamente los dos brindamos 'por la vuelta'. Tu boca roja y oferente bebió en el fino bacarát... Después, quizá mordiendo un llanto, quedate siempre, me dijiste... Afuera es noche y llueve tanto, ... y comenzaste a llorar...

English · machine translation

It's night outside and it's raining so much!.... Come to my side, you told me, today your word is like a mantle... A pleasant mantle of friendship... Your cup is this, and you have filled it. Let's drink together, old friend, you said as you raised your fine champagne glass... History repeats itself again, my sweet little blonde doll, the same love... the same rain... the same, the same crazy eagerness... Do you remember? Just a year ago we parted without a cry... No scene, no hurt... It was simply a 'Goodbye'... intelligent from both of us... Your glass is this, and again we both toast 'for the return'. Your red and offering mouth drank in the fine baccarat... Then, perhaps biting back a cry, stay forever, you told me... It's night outside and it's raining so hard, ... and you began to cry...
