Lyrics & Music: Edgar Ricardo Arjona Morales
Olvidarte | To Forget You |
Olvidarte es más dificil que encontrarse al sol de noche Que entender a los politicos o comprar la Torre Eiffel Más dificil que fumarse un habano en American Airlines Más dificil que una flor plastica marchita Olvidarte es más dificil que una flaca en un botero Que encontrarse a un gato verde o a un cubano sin sabor Más dificil que Lady Di en la estación del metro Olvidarte, es tan dificil olvidarte Coro: Olvidarte, olvidarte Es querer jalarle el pelo a una botella Es creer que la memoria es un cassette para borrar Olvidarte es recordar que es imposible Olvidarte, olvidarte Incluso es más dificil que aguantarte Si extraño tu neurosis y tus celos sin razón ¿Cómo no extrañar tu cuerpo en mi colchón? Olvidarte es un intento que no lo deseo tanto Porque tanto es que lo intento que me acuerdo mucho más Y he llegado a sospechar que mi afán de no acordarme Es lo que me tiene enfermo de recuerdos Olvidarte es lo que espero para reanudar mi vida Harto de seguir soñando con la posibilidad De que un día por error o pura curiosidad Le preguntes a un amigo por mis huesos Coro × 2 |
To forget you is more difficult than to find the sun at night Than to understand politicians or to buy the Eiffel Tower More difficult than to smoke a Havana on American Airlines More difficult than a withered plastic flower To forget you is more difficult than a weakness in a boatman Than to find a green cat or a Cuban cigar without flavour More difficult than Lady Di in the underground station To forget you, it is so difficult to forget you Chorus: To forget you, to forget you Is to want to pull hair from a bottle Is to believe that the memory is a cassette to be erased To forget you is to remember that it is impossible To forget you, to forget you Is even more difficult than to tolerate you If I miss your neuroses and your unreasonable jealousies How can I not miss your body on my mattress? To forget you is an aim that I do not desire very much Because (it is that) I try it so much that I remember much more And I have come to suspect that my keenness not to remember Is what has me sick with recollections To forget you is what I hope for in order to resume my life Fed up with keeping on dreaming of the possibility That one day by mistake or mere curiosity You might ask a friend about my bones Chorus × 2 |
