Milonga Sentimental
Juan Carlos Baglietto
Sentimental Milonga
Milonga to remember you
sentimental milonga
others complain and cry
I sing to keep from crying.
your love dried up suddenly
never said why
I find comfort thinking
that’s just how love goes.
Man, to love you a lot
man, to wish you well
man, to forget the wrongs
'cause I’ve already forgiven you.
maybe you’ll never know
maybe you can’t believe
maybe it makes you laugh
seeing me at your feet.
Milonga made from your absence
milonga of memories
milonga so that never
will they sing it on your balcony.
so you come back with the night
and leave with the sun
to tell you that sometimes
or to shout: no!
Man, to love you a lot
man, to wish you well
man, to forget the wrongs
'cause I’ve already forgiven you.
maybe you’ll never know
maybe you can’t believe
maybe it makes you laugh
seeing me at your feet.
Milonga to remember you
sentimental milonga
others complain and cry
I sing to keep from crying.
your love dried up suddenly
never said why
I find comfort thinking
that’s just how love goes.
