Noche Extraña
El Bordo
Strange Night
On the screen, some station
I don’t know if I’m coming or going
I’m just wandering, just as I am
At night alone, I dream and it’s not strange
Mom drinks to fall asleep
The kid’s on Ritalin, makes him more chill
Dad can’t sleep now, says he
Learned to drink (but without getting drunk)
Don’t leave me alone!
In this big crowd
Without your hand, I’m so fragile
I never knew how to be happy
Just to see your eyes
Just to be close to pleasure
Give me a smile in this tar pit!
Sirens dress in desperation
The bar is packed, I’m looking for "soma"
I see the creep getting off
We know how much the widows excite him
I only know that the more I learn
I realize I know less.
Is this dreamlike infinity so vast?
Only love gives meaning to being
Don’t leave me alone!
In this big crowd
Without your hand, I’m so fragile
I never knew how to be happy
Just to see your eyes
Just to be close to pleasure
Give me a smile in this tar pit!
Without your hand, I’m so fragile
I never knew how to be happy
In my body, your warmth
In my soul, freedom
Only love.
