Translation

Tu beso tembloroso y programa doble de cinco pesetas

Your trembling kiss and double feature for five pesetas

En el momento justo nos enchufaban con la linterna

At the right moment, they plugged us in with a flashlight

Cuantos atardeceres por las callejas sin darse tregua

How many sunsets through the narrow streets without respite

Que distintos los besos cuando pasabas de ir a la escuela

How different the kisses when you went to school


Del beso aquel de Judas que descubrimos sin darnos cuenta

From that Judas kiss that we discovered without realizing

Junto a dos corazones atravesados por una flecha

Next to two hearts pierced by an arrow

Cuando tire su anillo el agua del rio se volvio negra

When he threw his ring, the river water turned black

De esto hace ya treinta y cinco y jamás he vuelto a pisar su acera

It's been thirty-five years, and I've never stepped on its sidewalk again


A donde iran los besos que guardamos, que no damos

Where will the kisses we keep, that we don't give, go

Donde se va ese abrazo si no llegas nunca a darlo

Where does that hug go if you never get to give it

Donde iran tantas cosas que juramos un verano

Where will so many things we swore one summer go

Bailando con la orquesta prometimos no olvidarnos

Dancing with the orchestra, we promised not to forget


Y el beso que te llega en aquella carta que nunca esperabas

And the kiss that arrives in that letter you never expected

Como no esta firmada miras distinto a las compañeras

Since it's not signed, you look differently at your classmates

Todo el frances que supe que sabre nunca fue culpa de ella

All the French I knew and will ever know was not her fault

Le llamaban B. B y no la vi en babette se fue a la guerra

They called her B. B, and I didn't see her in Babette; she went to war


A donde iran los besos

Where will the kisses go
