Y Nos Dieron Las Diez
tú reinabas detrás de la barra del único bar que vimos abierto,
cántame una canción al oído y te pongo un cubata
con una condición, que me dejes abierto el balcón de tus ojos de gata.
Loco por conocer los secretos de tu dormitorio
esa noche canté al piano del amanecer todo mi repertorio.
Los clientes del bar, uno a uno, se fueron marchando
tú saliste a cerrar, yo me dije, cuidado chavalte estás enamorando.
Luego todo pasó de repente, tu dedo en mi espalda
dibujó un corazón y mi mano le correspondió debajo de la falda.
Caminito al hostal nos besamos en cada farola
era un pueblo con mar, yo quería dormir contigo y tú no querías dormir sola.
Y nos dieron las diez y las once,
las doce y la una, y las dos y las tres
y desnudos al anochecer nos encontró la luna,
Nos dijimos adiós, ojalá que volvamos a vernos,
el verano acabó, el otoño duró lo que tarda envolver el invierno.
Y a tu pueblo el azar, otra vez, el verano siguiente
me llevó y al final del concierto me puse a buscar tu cara entre la gente
y no hallé quien de ti me dijera ni media palabra
parecía como si me quisiera el destino gastar una broma macabra.
No había nadie detrás de la barra del otro verano
y en lugar de tu bar, me encontré una sucursal del banco hispanoamericano,
tu memoria vengué, a pedradas contra los cristales,
sé que no lo soñé, protestaba mientras me esposaban los municipales
en mi declaración alegué que llevaba tres copas
y empecé esta canción en le cuarto donde aquella vez te quitaba la ropa.
It was In a town by the sea a summer after a concert
You ruled behind the bar of the only bar we saw open,
Singing me a song by the ear and I'll pour you a drink
With one condition, that you leave open the balcony of your cat eyes.
It was In a town by the sea a summer after a concert
You ruled behind the bar of the only bar we saw open,
Singing me a song by the ear and i'll pour you a drink
With one condition, that you leave open the balcony of your cat eyes.
Crazy for learning the secrets of your bedroom
That night i sang till sunrise all of my repertoire.
The clients of the bar, one by one, started to leave
You came out to close, I said to myself, becareful boy your falling In love
Then everything happened at once, your finger on my back,
Drew a heart and my hand corresponded under your skirt
On the way to your room, we kissed under every street light
It was a town by the sea, I wanted to sleep with you and you didn't want to sleep alone
And It came to be 10 and ll
midnight and one oclock, two and three
And the moon found us naked at night
We said goodbye, hope we see eachother again,
Summer ended, fall lasted only what took winter to get here.
And to your town my luck took me again the following summer
And after the concert I looked for your face among the crowd
And I didn't find nobody that could tell me about you
Looked like destiny was playing a sinister joke on me
There was nobody behind the bar of the previous summer
And In the place of your bar, I found a branch of a bank
I took revenge for your memory against the window glass
I know i didn't dreamer, I protested as they put the cuffs on me
And In my statement I argued that I only had three drinks
And I started this song, In the room where that time I was taking your clothes off.
