Cantata de Puentes Amarillos
Luis Alberto Spinetta
Cantata of Yellow Bridges
Every path can be walked
Everything can walk
With this blood around
I don't know what I can look at
The blood laughs idiot
Like this song
And before whom?
Dirty their hands as always
Clocks rot in their minds now
And in the sea a raft shipwrecked
That never set sail
Sea here, sea there
At some point you'll see
That it's time to return
But bringing home all that brightness
And for whom?
Souls reject all confinement
The crosses stopped raining down
Get in the taxi, baby
Men are looking at you
They want to take you
Watch out for the bouquet, baby
The flowers fall, you have to stop
I saw the ring dying on the carousel
I saw so many monkeys, nests, coffee cups
Coffee cups, ah
Keep the thread, baby
Keep your hands well
This freedom
Don't pose anymore, baby
All that is in vain
Like not sleeping
Even if they force me, I will never say
That all time was better in the past
Tomorrow is better
Those shadows of the blue road
Where are they?
I compare them to cypresses I saw
Only in dreams
And the dolls so bleeding
Are crying
I love you so much that I can't
Wake up without loving
And I love you so much that I can't
Wake up without loving
And I love you so much that I can't
Wake up without loving
No! Never abandon her
No! Yellow bridges
Look at the bird, dying in its cage
No! Never abandon her
Yellow bridges, dying in its cage
Look at the bird, yellow bridges
Today I already love you
And it's already tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
Tomorrow
