Muchacho Solitario
José Luis Perales
Lonesome Dude
I'd give anything I am to see you smile,
lonesome dude from my street.
I'd like to give you the wings of a little sparrow
and steal the pain from your pockets.
You sit and wait, not sure for whom,
lonesome dude from my street.
You light a cig and silently gaze at that balcony
and I suspect a girl deceived you.
Lonesome heart, friend of the night under that lamppost.
Lonesome heart, life has taught you its song.
Lonesome heart, friend of the night under that lamppost.
Lonesome heart, life has taught you its song.
You start to cry, not sure why,
lonesome dude from my street.
You walk away silently, a dog licking your feet
the city is tired, so are you.
Lonesome heart, friend of the night under that lamppost.
Lonesome heart, life has taught you its song.
Lonesome heart, friend of the night under that lamppost.
Lonesome heart, life has taught you its song.
Lonesome heart, friend of the night under that lamppost.
Lonesome heart, life has taught you its song.
