Lyrics

Español

Adiós corazón... te decían los muchachos. Adiós corazón... aquel día dije yo. Y comenzaste a sonreir porque la frase te agradó y por las calles te seguí diciendo así, con emoción: Adiós corazón... si usted quiere conversamos; soñé con su amor... quiero ver qué hay de verdad. Y mi presencia te turbó: quedaste casi sin hablar cuando dijiste con tu adiós: ¡Hasta mañana, corazón! Adiós corazón... de tu mano va otra mano. Adiós corazón... quién pudiera ser tu amor. ¡Que nunca tengas que llorar! ¡Que no conozcas el dolor! Y que en tus ojos, el amor, viva radiante como hoy. Adiós corazón... si usted quiere conversamos; soñé con su amor... quiero ver qué hay de verdad. Y mi presencia te turbó: quedaste casi sin hablar cuando dijiste con tu adiós: ¡Hasta mañana, corazón!

English · machine translation

Good-bye, sweetheart... the boys said to you. Goodbye, sweetheart... I said that day. And you began to smile because the phrase pleased you and through the streets I followed you saying this way, with emotion: Farewell heart... if you want to talk to me; I dreamt of your love... I want to see what's really there. And my presence disturbed you: you were almost speechless when you said with your goodbye: See you tomorrow, my heart! Goodbye, my heart... from your hand goes another hand. Farewell heart... who could be your love. May you never have to cry! May you never know pain! And in your eyes, may love May it live radiant as it does today. Farewell my heart... if you want to talk to me; I dreamt of your love... I want to see what's true. And my presence disturbed you: you were almost speechless when you said with your goodbye: See you tomorrow, my heart!
