Una Partida de Risk

A Game of Risk
How boring this gray afternoon is, don't feel like going out, it's raining outside,
summer passed like a ray of light riding a bike.
There's nothing to do today, nothing to listen to or see, just any afternoon,
autumn arrived with its brown carpet laid on the sidewalks.
And the phone finally rings, two friends and a plan for me,
and also a friend who wants to come too.
A game of Risk, a trivia, a Sorry!,
conquer, your country, lots of questions about you,
mixing your pieces with mine, under the table, your cheating caresses.
A game of Risk, a trivia, a Sorry!,
lots of questions about you,
mixing your pieces with mine, under the table, your cheating caresses.
And that gray afternoon filled with color, we became friends,
we spent the winter, asking for objectives, strategy, answers, and cheese wedges.
Then came the dates, the parks, the movies, meeting as friends,
and in spring I rolled my dice, got sixes and we kissed.
And now on afternoons like this, the four of us get together,
call friends who have just broken up,
and in no time... we see them married.
A game of Risk, a trivia, a Sorry!,
conquer, your country, lots of questions about you,
mixing your pieces with mine, under the table, your cheating caresses.
