Tarde Gris
Carlos Gardel
Grey Afternoon
Despite the pain, I come to see you
I found out yesterday that you were so ill
I, who swore to hate you to death
I couldn't take it anymore and came to the hospital
For all the harm you've done to me
I wanted to settle this bitter grudge
But then I felt inside my chest
My heart beating with holy love
Why are you crying? Does my presence
At this moment also upset you?
Or by remembering your life without essence
Did you regret and now want to be good?
The grey afternoon, as grey as my sorrow
Accompanied my grief for your wound
Because your kisses brought to my life
The joy of dreaming and the eagerness to live
I didn't come here to reproach you
Everything passed and I prefer to forget
God wants me to forgive you again
And that we start over once more
When your ailments heal
My heart will awaken again
The gentle springs will return
And like yesterday we will have a home
