It's the Life that Reaches Me

Celeste Carballo

Es La Vida Que Me Alcanza

Cuando me levanto temprano en la mañana
Me cebo unos mates y riego las plantas
Salgo a la terraza, hay un Sol que camina
Todo sigue adentro, procesión que lastima

Es la vida que me alcanza
Es la vida que me alcanza

Si estoy en mi casa y dejo de fumar
Es porque mañana tengo que ir a cantar
Y si alguna tarde me voy sola al cine
Es porque no encuentro nadie que me mime

Es la vida que me alcanza
Es la vida que me alcanza

No era fácil como a mí me parecía
Llevarme mis cosas seguir sola en la vida
Dejar a un costado todo lo que pasamos
Llegar a olvidarme cuanto que nos amamos

Es la vida que me alcanza
Es la vida que me alcanza

Doña Elisa ahora está en su casa tranquila
Mirando como crece de a poco la familia
Ya crío ocho hijos, ahora está cansada
Le gustan mis canciones, yo soy la más mimamada

Miro para atrás y me parece un sueño
Nunca imagine llegar a este momento
Canto mis canciones, me gano la vida
Me compre una casa que es mi guarida

Sufro como loca si me acuerdo del campo
Cuando iba a la escuela con mi amigo el caballo
Yo tenía un petizo que era viejo y mañero
A veces le cantaba cosas que hoy no recuerdo

Es la vida que me alcanza
Es la vida que me alcanza

It's the Life that Reaches Me

When I wake up early in the morning
I make myself some mates and water the plants
I go out to the terrace, there is a Sun that walks
Everything is still inside, a procession that hurts

It's the life that reaches me
It's the life that reaches me

If I'm at home and I stop smoking
It's because tomorrow I have to go sing
And if one afternoon I go to the movies alone
It's because I can't find anyone to pamper me

It's the life that reaches me
It's the life that reaches me

It wasn't as easy as it seemed to me
Take my things and continue alone in life
Putting aside everything we went through
I'm getting to the point of forgetting how much we love each other

It's the life that reaches me
It's the life that reaches me

Doña Elisa is now at home in peace
Watching how the family grows little by little
She has already raised eight children, now she is tired
He likes my songs, I am the most spoiled

I look back and it seems like a dream
I never imagined I would get to this point
I sing my songs, I make a living
I bought a house that is my hideout

I suffer like crazy if I remember the countryside
When I went to school with my friend the horse
I had a little dog who was old and naughty
Sometimes I sang things to him that I don't remember today

It's the life that reaches me
It's the life that reaches me
