Mala Suerte (Tango)

Our love is over, you told me coldly
I thought to myself, maybe you're right
I thought about it and left you alone, alone and in charge of your life
While I, with my conscience, was playing with my heart

I closed my eyes tightly, and pressed my lips tightly
To not see you, to not talk to you, to not shout goodbye
And slowly swaying, I went to the bar on the corner to drown with four drinks what could have been your love

I couldn't promise you
To change the life I lead
Because I was born a troublemaker
And that's how I'll die

I'm drawn to partying
Coffee, hanging out with friends
And wherever there's a tango
I can't help but go

You know well how I've been
You know well how I've thought
About my crazy restlessness
About my desire to roam the streets

Bad luck if I lose you
Bad luck if I'm alone
I'm to blame for everything
Since I can't change

Because I know my life isn't a model life
Because whoever has a love, must give themselves to love
And I'm like the goldfinch, who even in a golden cage
In its song always cries out the desire to fly

I've had bad luck, but speaking frankly
I'm grateful to you, you've been girlfriend and woman
If life must hurry me with hardships one day
You can be sure that I'll remember you!

I couldn't promise you
To change the life I lead
Because I was born a troublemaker
And that's how I'll die

I'm drawn to partying
Coffee, hanging out with friends
And wherever there's a tango
I can't help but go

You know well how I've been
You know well how I've thought
About my crazy restlessness
About my desire to roam the streets

Bad luck if I lose you
Bad luck if I'm alone
I'm to blame for everything
Since I can't change
