Cumbia del Suricato

This is my sov!

This is my sov! This is my sov!

I waited for you...

I waited for you... I waited for you...

I waited for you...

This is my sov!

I waited for you like a meerkat,
Alone with the moon and the sun twelve hours later,
There's no longer the smell, sweat, and touch of your skin,
Even my pillow doesn't want anything,
My pillow doesn't want anything,
My pillow doesn't want anything except your love.

The other night I waited for you, not even under the rain,
But for more than a thousand hours,
Like good children wait for their mothers,
I waited for you like a prisoner waits to be released,
Like a death row inmate waits for the injection,
Like Brazilians wait for Carnival,
Like beauty queens wait for world peace,
I waited for you like a mayor waits for re-election,
With the hope an old man waits for an erection.

Meerkat doesn't want to eat anymore, meerkat doesn't want to live,
Meerkat wants to die, meerkat is starting to say goodbye...

Meerkat doesn't want to eat anymore, meerkat doesn't want to live,
Meerkat is starting to say goodbye, meerkat wants to die.

I waited for you like a meerkat,
Alone with the moon and the sun twelve hours later,
There's no longer the smell, sweat, and touch of your skin,
Even my pillow doesn't want anything,
My pillow doesn't want anything,
My pillow doesn't want anything except your love.

I waited for you like a lynx waits for its prey,
Like a girl waits for her quinceañera party,
Like a pregnant woman waits to give birth,
Like thousands of Christians wait for Jesus' return,
Like the poor wait to see changes in their surroundings,
Like the night waits for the young to watch porn,
I waited for you, I wait for you, and I would wait even more,
Like the crazy woman at the pier in San Blas.

Meerkat doesn't want to eat anymore, meerkat doesn't want to live,
Meerkat wants to die, meerkat is starting to say goodbye...

Meerkat doesn't want to eat anymore, meerkat doesn't want to live,
Meerkat is starting to say goodbye, meerkat wants to die.

This is my sov!

This is my sov!

I waited for you like a meerkat,
Alone with the moon and the sun twelve hours later,
There's no longer the smell, sweat, and touch of your skin,
Even my pillow doesn't want anything,
My pillow doesn't want anything,
My pillow doesn't want anything except your love.
