La Pequeña Novia Del Carioca
Patricio Rey y Sus Redonditos de Ricota
The Little Girlfriend of Carioca
One day later
(after you)
I crossed my fingers.
The boat passed
and the river finally became still.
It was just a while
that helped pass a good time
A house of cards fell
and cheap words.
In the air between us
a broken glass shone
bad luck, my palm gave a dark fate.
A sweet liquor of rosemary
was the crazy bad idea
you will find out through this song
for the Carioca!
I no longer dream of you
another flower from the sky has fallen
I'm going to steal this love song
and comfort.
In the soft moonlight
I saw your back
there is a place there for footprints
and a nocturnal mole.
We bet wrong
You will be happier wandering
I was very unkind
I saw nothing new in your eyes.
