LAS VUELTAS DE LA VIDA lyrics

LYRICS: M. Romero
MUSIC: Francisco Canaro

Parao en la vereda, bajo la lluvia
que me empapaba, la vi pasar,
el auto limusine como un estuche
de mina aislaba con su cristal.
Freno, me dio dos mangos
y en la mirada de indiferencia
que hecho al seguir

Note que para ella yo era un mendigo
sin importancia y me rei.
Gran perra las vueltas que tiene la vida
ayer yo era rico, su amor disfrute.
De sedas y encajes la tuve vestida
y alajas y coche, sin par le compre.
La timba más tarde, me tuvo apurado,
el juego es más perro que toda mujer

Sin plata muy pronto, me vi abandonado
y hoy mango de un peso, si quiero comer.
Que cambio, yo he sido un bacan afincado
y hoy pasa a mi lado casi sin mirar
y me tira limosna al pasar.

Parao en la vereda, bajo la lluvia
que me empapaba, hoy recorde,
los besos tan sinceros que ella me daba
cuando yo era su gran mishe.
Mujer, pa ser fayuta, dije amargado
y sus billetes despedace,
después, silbando un tango,
galgeando de hambre,
pa' mi cotorro me encamine.

Quote of the Day

In tango, the relationship between lead and follower, man and woman, is so intense and all consuming, that there is simply no time for small talk. The last man I danced with, I know more intricately in many ways than his lover: I know that he perspires in a tiny spot above his brow; that when the dance slows and our connection is tight, his breathing almost stops; that when my leg sweeps his, he arches his neck imperceptibly upwards; that when another couple got too close he subconsciously enclosed me in a protective embrace; and that his hand rested so delicately on the flesh of my back. Yet all I know about him are his name and his country of origin. Small talk is a luxury not afforded to us tango addicts. - Anastasia Demaggio
