Amigo Mesero
El Halcon de La Sierra
Bartender Friend
Bartender, raise a glass with me
now that there aren't many people
and if I fall asleep
don't laugh at my bad luck
someday you'll be hurt too
and you'll see what it feels like.
Yesterday, she told me to my face
something I can't forget
she said I should let her go
that she wants to start her life anew
it felt like a stab in the back
that's why I'm drowning in booze.
You who put up with so many drunks
bartender friend, I want you to tell me
if I go and humiliate myself like a real man
because without her love, my life is over
and if I say I don't love her anymore
I can't lie to myself alone.
I can barely hold on to my soul
I feel death creeping close
no matter how hard I try to forget her
she won't leave my mind
I'm going to try to forget her
with bottles of hard liquor.
You who put up with so many drunks
bartender friend, I want you to tell me
if I go and humiliate myself like a real man
because without her love, my life is over
and if I say I don't love her anymore
I can't lie to myself alone.
