Tu Diagnóstico
Carlos Gardel
Your Diagnosis
Your diagnosis is simple
I know I’m beyond help
And I know I’m hopeless
Because of your hope and my longing
What are we gonna do, my soul?
I’ll worship your memory
I’ll pray that you’ll be my friend
Since I have no other joy
To love you like I craved
Because I can’t forget you
Even if I never see you
I see you forever
With the eyes of my mind
And I carry you in my thoughts
And every moment I miss you
Even though I’m no longer yours
I can’t explain the reason
To me, it’s a mystery
That dawn surprises me
Without reconciling with sleep
And that you’re so cruel
To the one who was sincere
And yet you swore to me
One afternoon, eternal love
My heart no longer loves
The poor thing is stiff
Today I love you with my mind
With the madness of a genius
God forbid you catch
The madness of this blind man
Because then you’d know
What it’s like to suffer hell
And since I love you so much
I’d rather you not suffer
You see, I’m not that bad
Since I saw you, I’ve been good
And I’ll be as long as I live
For the one who kept me awake
What have your eyes done to me?
That I find myself so sick
Your diagnosis is simple
I know I’m beyond help
And I know I’m hopeless
Because of your hope and my longing
