Un Año Más

It's the sunset of the year that was
Once again the champagne and the grapes and the tar
Are on the carpet
They are
The firecrackers that erase sounds from yesterday
And heat up the spirit to accept
That another one has passed
One more

And in the old clock as year after year
Five more minutes for the countdown
We take stock of the good and bad
Five minutes before the countdown

Sailors, soldiers, singles, married, lovers and wanderers
And a few confused priests

And in the old clock as year after year
Five more minutes for the countdown
We take stock of the good and bad
Five minutes before the countdown

As we prepare the grapes there are some new ones
We will miss those who are no longer here
And let's see if we wake up those of us who are alive
And in the coming year we laugh

1, 2, 3 and 4 and it starts again
The fifth is one
And the sixth is two
And so the seventh is three

And we say goodbye and ask God that in the year
That comes maybe instead of one favor they can
Be two
