Juegos de Azar
Joaquín Sabina
Games of Chance
You will remember the first time
That with your hustle life brought us together
You rang the bell to sell
Books about unknown races
What happened to us?
That we ended up naked playing embraced on the parquet
To the game of love
Then you left without leaving a paper
With your name and address
Someone was waiting for you where always at three
And it was already past two
I found you again months later
Coincidence crossed me with you
In the lobby of a hotel
What the hell are you doing in Vigo?
When I woke up
You were kissing my eyelids
What's your name? I asked you
Then dawned
And that's how the wall of that hotel
That separated us fell
You had room one hundred forty-three
I had one hundred forty-two
Centuries passed without chance
Mischievous elf, moving its threads
I had almost forgotten
Your feet climbing my stairs
But the day before yesterday
In a neighborhood cinema a voice called me, from the lobby
And I knew it was you
And the strange story repeated itself
A few years later
At the box office they gave you row two
And they gave me row three
