Por Eso Ahora
Juan Luis Guerra 4.40
That's Why Now
Leaving the count's place
One day I saw her
Dressed in red
Like a mannequin
Her body was the center
Of all attention
Of the whole street
Of every man
Suddenly, uh, a voice was heard
From a guy, uh, who called her
What a shame (uh) it wasn't him
He feels lonely
Lonely
Leaving the count's place
One day I saw him
Dressed in white
Like a mannequin
My body was vibrating
Full of emotion
Because he was looking at me
With great fervor
Suddenly, uh, a voice was heard
From a guy, uh, who called her
What a shame (uh) it wasn't him
She feels lonely
Lonely
That's why now
I won't love again
I sat in the park
Oh, thinking of you
In those days
When I was happy
There was a couple
What a shame
Laughing happily
And I in solitude
Suddenly, uh, the sensation
Of cold, uh, in his heart
Fled the (uh) that could have been
Now he's alone
Alone
I sat in the park
Thinking of you
It was the morning
Of an April day
There was a couple
Talking about love
And he flirted with her
Like a hummingbird
Suddenly, uh, the sensation
Of cold, uh, in his heart
Fled what (uh) could have been
Now she's alone
Alone
That's why now
I won't love again
Oh, I don't know what's happening to me
But I feel lonely, uh
Oh, I don't know what's happening to me
But I feel lonely
(Thank goodness, mama; uh!)
That's why now
I won't love again
Give me a chance, mama
You are the light of my days
