A Buena Broma

A Good Joke

A Buena Broma

Let it take her awayDéjalo que se la lleve
Soon she'll know the good stuffPronto va saber lo bueno
When they betray her tooCuando también lo traicionen
It's just her usual thingTiene por costumbre hacerlo
I had to see it, my brotherTuve que verlo mi hermano
My brother, I had to see itMi hermano tuve que verlo
It happened to me just like youMe sucedió igual a ti
How hard it was to believe it. (repeat)Cuanto me costo creerlo.(bis)

It's like a kite flying in the skyEs como el vuelo de un papagayo en el cielo
That won't stay steady no matter how hard you tryQue no se mantiene firme aunque le pongas empeño
It's like a dream that fades when you wake upEs como un sueño que al despertar se evapora
The flower that at sunset doesn't smell the sameLa flor que al atardecer ya no tiene el mismo aroma
That woman played a good joke on usA buena broma nos ha echado esa mujer
She'll have her turn to lose when her time comes. (repeat)Ya le tocará perder cuando le llegue su hora.(bis)

Let it take her awayDéjalo que se la lleve
The same thing will happen to herLe va a suceder lo mismo
A lady like thatUna dama como esa
Only lives for whimsSolo vive de caprichos
I'm not one to judge herNo soy quien para juzgarla
But I have to say itPero tengo que decirlo
That to live lifeQue para vivir la vida
Everyone has their own style. (repeat)Cada quien tiene su estilo.(bis)

It's like the spring water on the roadEs como el agua del manantial del camino
That gives relief to the traveler at their feetQue a los pies del caminante pasa dándole un alivio
But then it leaves with no fixed directionPero después se marcha sin rumbo fijo
And never returns to the one who gave it their loveY no regresa jamás a quien le dio su cariño
That woman played a good joke on usA buena broma nos ha echado esa mujer
She'll have her turn to lose when destiny catches up with her. (repeat)Ya le tocara perder cuando la alcance le destino. (bis)
