Papá cantó

Dad sang
"Melody of an old love"
and I dreaming of being a singer.
The heart
teaches you what will be and the body always moves forward.

Dad sang
"Melody of an old love"
and I dreaming on a stage.
The heart
teaches you where to go
and everything happens when you're singing.

Now that I've touched the sky a little
who could ask you
the antidotes for fear.

Dad sang
a tango to live
"The last binge",
"The day you love me"
and I sang
the things I've already lived,
and I will sing the life that remains.

Now that optimism has arrived
who could ask you
how to always be oneself.

You left me alone
adrift
without the compass that marks the future
and those are the laws of life
it always was and has been like this.

Now that I've touched the sky a little
who could ask you
the antidotes for fear.
Now that optimism has arrived
who could ask you
how to always be oneself.

You left me alone
adrift
without the compass that marks the future
and those are the laws of life
it always was and has been like this.

Now that I've seen the river pass
how much of this has been yours,
how much of this has been mine.
