1932
La Maravillosa Orquesta Del AlcoholLyrics
Translation
Solía hablarle de tí y de tus ojos anochecer
I used to talk about you and your eyes at dusk
Jamás pensamos en ser, nada más que jóvenes
We never thought about being anything but young
Vimos los barcos partir, sin despedirnos de ella
We saw the ships depart without saying goodbye to her
Como si fuésemos sueños dentro de botellas
As if we were dreams inside bottles
Era distinto en 1932
It was different in 1932
Volver a volver, saber que no estás y yo nunca estaré
Come back again, knowing you're not here, and I'll never be
No quiero contar, lo mismo que ayer
I don't want to recount the same as yesterday
Ahogar las palabras, quemarme la piel
Drown the words, burn my skin
Mis memorias me persiguen, de eso no puedo librarme
My memories haunt me, I can't free myself from that
De lo que fuí sólo queda, hueso y carne
Of what I was, only bone and flesh remain
Recuerdo lo que me dijo mi abuelo aquella mañana
I remember what my grandfather told me that morning
Se puede perder la vista pero nunca la mirada
You can lose sight but never the gaze
Era distinto en 1932
It was different in 1932
Volver a volver, saber que no estás y yo nunca estaré
Come back again, knowing you're not here, and I'll never be
No quiero contar, lo mismo que ayer
I don't want to recount the same as yesterday
Ahogar las palabras, quemarme la piel
Drown the words, burn my skin
