She Dances Alone
She dances alone
Under a streetlight
Piazzola's tangos
With her B flat
So much light and in the dark
So much grace cries
Faith has doubts
Because God ignores her
With her shaved head
She fights with fate
So that life and death
do not escape
She dances alone
Waiting for the end
Under a streetlamp
On the cobblestone
Life is a rascal
That sometimes steals from you
Hope, a trash can
to throw away tomorrows
She didn't want to give up
Like one in a thousand
She wanted to say goodbye
With the light of April
Moon's bandoneon
Sunset tango
Cradle-less milonga
Short-term life
Syncopations that sometimes
become a nightmare
Death and its judges
like a stumbling block
Her laughter is heard
Whistling in the wind
Destinies in a hurry
And forgetfulness so slow
She dances alone
Waiting for the end
Under a streetlamp
On the cobblestone
Life is a rascal
That sometimes steals from you
Hope, a trash can
to throw away tomorrows
She didn't want to give up
Like one in a thousand
She wanted to say goodbye
With the light of April
