Lyrics

Español

En la calle de la pena Puse mi cariño en venta, Pero nadie lo quería,.. Pero nadie lo quería... ¡Ay! Porque ya tuvo otra dueña Pero nadie lo quería... ¡Ay! Porque ya tuvo otra dueña. Yo no duermo de cansado Si no, por estar contigo, Y cada vez que te sueño Y cada vez que te sueño... ¡Ay! Es otra vida que vivo. Y cada vez que te sueño... ¡Ay! Es otra vida que vivo. Anoche tiré mi vida A un pozo de muerte ausente, Vení a cerrarme los ojos Vení a cerrarme los ojos... ¡Ay! Que se murieron por verte. Vení a cerrarme los ojos... ¡Ay! Que se murieron por verte. Mi vida no vale nada Y mucho menos mi muerte, Mi vida vale contigo Mi vida vale contigo... ¡Ay! Y mi muerte es no tenerte. Mi vida vale contigo... ¡Ay! Y mi muerte es no tenerte. Mi vida vale contigo... ¡Ay! Y mi muerte... es no tenerte...

English · machine translation

In the street of sorrow I put my love up for sale, But nobody wanted it... But nobody wanted it... Ouch! Because it already had another owner But nobody wanted him... Ouch! Because he already had another owner. I don't sleep because I'm tired But for being with you, And every time I dream of you And every time I dream of you... Ouch! It's another life I live. And every time I dream of you... Ouch! It's another life I live. Last night I threw my life Into a well of absent death, I came to close my eyes I came to close my eyes... Oh! That died to see you. I came to close my eyes... Oh! They died to see you. My life is worth nothing Much less my death, My life is worth with you My life is worth with you... Ouch! And my death is not having you. My life is worth with you... Ouch! And my death is not having you. My life is worth with you... Ouch! And my death... is not having you...
