A Media Luz

Corrientes 3, 4, 8Corrientes 3, 4, 8
Second floor, elevatorSegundo piso, ascensor
There are no doormen or neighborsNo hay porteros ni vecinos
Inside, cocktails and loveAdentro cóctel y amor

A little apartment with maple woodPisito que puso maple
Piano, rug, and bedside tablePiano, estera y velador
A telephone that answersUn teléfono que contesta
A record player that criesUna vitrola que llora
Old tangos of my flowerViejos tangos de mi flor
And a porcelain catY un gato de porcelana
So it doesn't meow at lovePa' que no maúlle al amor

And everything in half lightY todo a media luz
Love is a wizardQue es un brujo el amor
In half light the kissesA media luz los besos
In half light the two of usA media luz los dos

And everything in half lightY todo a media luz
Inner twilightCrepúsculo interior
What soft velvetQué suave terciopelo
The half light of loveLa media luz de amor

Call without fearTelefoneá sin temor
In the afternoon, tea with pastriesDe tarde, té con masitas
At night, tango and singingDe noche tango y cantar

On Sundays, dancing teaLos domingos, té danzante
On Mondays, desolationLos lunes desolación
There's everything in the little houseHay de todo en la casita
Cushions and divansAlmohadones y divanes

Like in a pharmacy, cocoaComo en botica, cocó
Carpets that don't make noiseAlfombras que no hacen ruido
And a table set for loveY mesa puesta al amor

And everything in half lightY todo a media luz
Love is a wizardQue es un brujo el amor
In half light the kissesA media luz los besos
In half light the two of usA media luz los dos

And everything in half lightY todo a media luz
Inner twilightCrepúsculo interior
What soft velvetQué suave terciopelo
The half light of loveLa media luz de amor
