Lyrics

Español

Quién al oír los primeros compases del vals no ha tenido intención de bailar. Si hasta parece que el mundo en su eterno rodar girará al compás de algún vals. Si usted ha soñado en sus brazos poder estrechar a esa rubia que encanta al mirar. Juntos muy juntos los dos estarán si siguen el ritmo del vals. Soñar, dejarse arrullar, decir al oído palabras tan dulces que invitan a amar. Soñar, siguiendo el compás, cerrando los ojos muy cerca las bocas el sueño del vals. Sentir que nos aprisiona un perfume de amor. Que un ángel con voz de cielo nos roba el adiós. Soñar, siguiendo el compás que todo es distinto si entrega su alma al ritmo del vals.

English · machine translation

Who, on hearing the first bars of the waltz has not had the intention of dancing. If it even seems that the world in its eternal roll will turn to the beat of some waltz. If you have dreamed in your arms to be able to hold in your arms that blonde that enchants when you look at her. Together the two of you will be very close if you follow the rhythm of the waltz. To dream, to let themselves be lulled, to say in the ear words so sweet that invite you to love. To dream, following the beat, closing our eyes very close our mouths to the dream of the waltz. To feel that we are imprisoned a perfume of love. That an angel with the voice of heaven steals our goodbye. To dream, following the beat that everything is different if you surrender your soul to the rhythm of the waltz.
