Cruz Diablo

Devil's Cross

Cruz Diablo

He looked at his hands sooner rather than laterMiró sus manos más tarde que temprano
And the precipice where their love dissolvedY el precipicio donde su amor deshizo
He thought about his name, the woman and the manPensó en su nombre, en la mujer y el hombre
On tanned skin and a sun that no longer warmsEn la piel curtida y un sol que ya no abriga
You see, you see, the flesh loosens sometimes¿Ves?, ¿ves?, la carne afloja alguna vez
See? Cross the devil, go on, I'll follow you¿Ves?, cruz diablo siga, yo después

He looked at his photos, lit a cigaretteMiró sus fotos, prendió un cigarro
And fell asleep in clouds of sunken smokeY quedó dormido en nubes de humo hundido
He dreamed of children, his neighborhood, his motherSoñó con niños, su barrio, su madre
With his brothers, with his dog and his fatherCon sus hermanos, con su perro y su padre
You see, you see, we all lack something sometimes¿Ves?, ¿ves?, todo nos falta alguna vez
See? Devil's cross, devil's cross¿Ves?, cruz diablo, cruz diablo

You didn't lose suddenlyVos no perdiste de golpe
Not even your luck was smashed to pieces by a deadly blowNi tu suerte se hizo escombros con un mazazo mortal
I saw you losing slowly, slowly, always slowlyYo te vi perdiendo lento, lento, siempre lento
Like the shadows of the sunset that go slowlyComo las sombras del atardecer que se van lento
This is how I see you, this is how I saw you, this is how they saw you and this is how they see youAsí te veo, así te vi, así te vieron y así te ven
Losing slowly, always slowlyPerdiendo lento, siempre lento

A new day offered him calmUn nuevo día la calma le ofrecía
The bitter mate, a cigarette and the gameEl mate amargo, un pucho y la partida
He counted the money, paid the worker's ticketContó el dinero, pagó el boleto obrero
And an old passenger went to workY se fue al laburo un viejo pasajero
You see, you see, the flesh loosens sometimes¿Ves?, ¿ves?, la carne afloja alguna vez
You see, we all lack something sometimes¿Ves?, todo nos falta alguna vez
You see, but these things are not seen¿Ves?, pero estas cosas no se ven
See? Cross the devil, go on, I'll follow you¿Ves?, cruz diablo siga, yo después
