De Viento Y de Agua
Parrita
Of Wind and Water
(Nights of wind and water
no matter how many paths I take
none lead to your home...)
Oh, I want a sip
a sip of fiery water
that makes me forget the sorrows
I have for loving you
Neither girlfriend nor family
nor the blessed Saint Anthony
tomorrow I enlist as a soldier
You lie that you deceive me
in such a small heart
two souls cannot fit
Gypsy is my father
he turns bad into good
and in trades, there's no one like him
Oh, I know the good and the bad
oh, I know the good and the bad
and if my mother gave birth to me
the only thing I am is a gypsy
(With you by my side I wake up
the day dawns and I see your face
many nights I dream of this
and I want the early morning to pass...)
Today I am capable of undressing
the rainbow, of taking away from the sun
its beauty
today I am capable of destroying myself
only if you let me
Looking into your eyes I sense you deceive me
because you turn your face away
and avert your gaze
your smile is so cold
that it even freezes my soul
don't continue with your lies
tell me your sins
stop with that falsehood
(See, your kisses taste like
mint and cinnamon, cinnamon and mint
mint and cinnamon)
I want you to give me a kiss
without time to waste
(Nights of wind and water
no matter how many paths I take
none lead to your home...)
(With you by my side I wake up
the day dawns and I see your face
many nights I dream of this
and I want the early morning to pass...)
