Caballo Viejo

When love comes like this, one doesn't even realize it,
the carutal turns green, the guamachito blooms, and the ropes break. (repeat)
They give the old horse pasture because he's old and tired
but they don't realize that a tied heart
when the reins are released, becomes a runaway horse.
And if a young filly meets an old horse
his heart breaks, he doesn't pay attention to tricks
and doesn't obey the bit or false reins.

When love comes like this,
one is not to blame,
loving has no schedule
or date on the calendar
when the desires come together. (repeat)

They give the old horse pasture and his time is counted
and he goes in the morning with his hurried step
to meet his filly who has him tangled up.
The colt gives time to time because he has plenty of age
an old horse can't lose the flower he's given
because after this life there's no other chance.
