Garganta Con Arena

Throat with Sand

Garganta Con Arena

You seeYa ves
The day just won't breakEl día no amanece
Polaco GoyenechePolaco Goyeneche
Sing me one more tangoCantame un tango más

You seeYa ves
The night just drags onLa noche se hace larga
Your life has its karmaTu vida tiene un carma
Sing, always singCantar, siempre cantar

SingerCantor
Of a somewhat bold tangoDe un tango algo insolente
You made the crowdHiciste que a la gente
Feel your painLe duela tu dolor

SingerCantor
Of a balancing tangoDe un tango equilibrista
More than a singer, an artistMás que cantor artista
With the vices of a singerCon vicios de cantor

You seeYa ves
Me and Buenos AiresA mí y a Buenos Aires
Always short of airNos falta siempre el aire
When your voice isn't hereCuando no esta tu voz

You seeYa ves
How much you taught meQue tanto me enseñaste
The day you sangEl día que cantaste
A song with meConmigo una canción

SingCanta
Throat with sandGarganta con arena
Your voice carries the sorrowTu voz tiene la pena
That Malena never sangQue Malena no cantó
SingCanta
For Juárez condemns youQue Juárez te condena
As it hurts his painAl lastimar su pena
With his white bandoneónCon su blanco bandoneón

SingCanta
The crowd is applaudingLa gente está aplaudiendo
And even if you're dyingY aunque te estés muriendo
They don't know your painNo conocen tu dolor
SingCanta
For Troilo from the heavensQue Troilo desde el cielo
Left you a verseDebajo de tu almohada
Under your pillowUn verso te dejó
