The Shootout

I drank some mates1 as I stood in the kitchen,
I saw how the sun sprung itself on the world.
I looked at the time, it was a quarter 'til seven,
I already felt tired of waiting.
I started putting on my shirt and jeans,
I put the revolver in the shaft of my boot.
I lit a candle at the feet of San Antonio,
The patron saint of outlaws.
 
I flew on my motorcycle to the La Cucaracha bar
Where in silence, the boys were waiting for me.
Fernet with cola2 and whiskey with cigarettes,
Death smelled of tobacco and coffee.
The hit was more or less well planned,
More than two months finishing up the details.
Two of us robbing the cashiers
And me on the street in a rental car.
 
But you already know how these things happen,
There are always details left out of the script,
Some employee who leans on an alarm,
Some trigger that's in a hurry to respond.
The first shot hit me in my left hand,
I took the revolver from my boot and opened fire.
The police demanded that I give up:
'You're surrounded, there is no way to escape'.
 
'It's been ten years,' I replied, 'that I've been surrounded.'
Ten long years that I have not found even one job.
What good is it for me to be alive if I am dead,
I don't even need to wear a mask.
If they heard me, they paid me no mind
In an instant the shooting began.
I ended up flopping3on the sidewalk
After having emptied my magazine.
 
I think about this while I feel that my life
Is going to the side of death,
I have the revolver unloaded, and in my chest,
A very difficult hole to fill.
My face resting on the asphalt,
My hands cold, and even my breath hurts.
I know that it's daytime, but I feel like it's night,
I'll ask San Antonio about that.
 
I don't have anybody and I don't leave many things,
Just a motorcycle at the La Cucaracha bar,
Tell them everything and undo the padlock
She already knows where she's going to wait for me.

Go, You're Free





This name of mine,
say it no more, please.
That name of yours,
I've already erased it from my heart.
 

And go, you are free,
go but remember
that, like me, one day
you will suffer this way.
 

But this name of mine
will return again to your lips
and your heart
surely will seek me out.
 

But no, don't fool yourself
that I can wait for you
and if you leave me,
no, don't return.
 

And go, you are free,
and go but remember
that it will be your fault
if you regret me.
 

~~~~~
 

But no, don't fool yourself
that I can wait for you
and if you leave me,
no, no, don't return.
 

And go, you are free,
and go but remember
that it will be your fault
if you regret me.
 

And go, you are free,
and go, you are free,
and go, you are free,
and go, you are free.

Speak to Him





You're a friend and I know it,
I trust you and therefore
if I ask you a favor,
you shouldn't say no,
you mustn't say no to me.
 

Then speak to him,
you who know everything about me.
Tell him that yesterday
I went out with you.
 

Speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him.
 

Yes, I know you're sorry,
but it's your fault that he
this evening
didn't show up with me
and you already understood why.
 

And so speak to him,
make peace between us
and don't tell me,
don't tell me that you can't.
 

Oh, speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him.
 

Whoa, whoa, whoa, speak to him,
you who know everything about me.
Tell him that yesterday
I went out with you.
 

Speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him!

Tonight You'll Hear a Song





Tonight you'll hear a song,
a song you already know.
The woman you no longer love will sing it,
the woman who will leave you but who won't cry.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will stay with you throughout your life,
a song be will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.
 

Tonight I'll relive for the last time
these moments that I'll no longer find
but when I disappear and only you are found,
you'll cry because you'll remember.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will be with you throughout your life,
a song that will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will be with you throughout your life,
a song that will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.

A Reflection in the Water





It was
a moonlit evening,
under the bridge the river slept
and a woman sang.
 

Clear,
the water slipped away
and the image of your smile
the river mirrored.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing remained,
but I inside my mind
still see you.
 

It was
a moonlit evening,
your voice spoke
and the river silently listened.
 

And it was,
almost a year has passed
but every evening I return to look
into the river to dream.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing has changed,
the water slowly stops,
I still see you.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing has changed,
the water slowly stops,
I still see you.
