Lyrics
Español
Un tango más, un gorrión de barrio viejo llega moliendo su cruel desilusión. Rodando van los recuerdos de mi vida, mi vida gris que no tiene ya canción. Dónde estarán los que fueron compañeros, mi amor primero de un claro anochecer, y ese silbido llamando de la esquina hacia el calor de aquel viejo café. Quién sabe dónde está lo que perdí, loco de afán. Del tiempo que pasó sólo quedó un tango más. Tan sólo un tango más que trae fracaso de no ser, cansancio de mi andar. La vida que al rodar, sólo dejó, un tango y nada más. Un tango más, un gorrión de barrio viejo tiembla en la sombra doliente del ayer. Un tango más, y el juguete de la luna vuelve a mentir en el triste anochecer. Mi juventud la quemé en la cruz viajera en la quimera de andar, siempre de andar. Buscan mis ansias calor de primavera y sólo hay un tango y nada más.

One more tango, an old neighborhood sparrow comes grinding its cruel disillusionment. The memories of my life roll by, my gray life that no longer has a song. Where will be those who were my companions, my first love of a clear evening, and that whistle calling from the corner towards the warmth of that old café. Who knows where is what I lost, mad with eagerness. Of the time that passed only one more tango remained. Just one more tango that brings failure of not being, tiredness of my walk. The life that in rolling, only left, a tango and nothing more. One more tango, an old neighborhood sparrow trembles in the sorrowful shadow of yesterday. One more tango, and the toy of the moon returns to lie in the sad nightfall. I burned my youth on the traveling cross in the chimera of walking, always walking. My yearnings seek the warmth of spring and there is only a tango and nothing more.
