Lyrics of La Verónica - Fito Paez

La Verónica (original)

No se filmó en portugal, eso no estaba en su plan
Ella deshizo valijas, prendió un cigarrillo y bajó a la ciudad
Roma no estaba tan mal, debo admitir nada mal
Algo mantiene el hechizo pensó, y se dejó llevar
Por un tipo que bajaba solo por la calle del calvario
Plano secuencia real, solo debo caminar
Si de algo estaba segura era que su veronica no iba a llorar
Tarde de crucifixión, clavan al hijo de dios
Guarda el guión en un bolso amarillo
Y se tira al sol … a bailar
Todas las vidas cayeron al mar
Y es tan suave verlas
Todas las vidas cayeron al mar
Y se van, y se van, y se van
Ella quiso hacerlo tan feliz…
Exterior día toma 22
Y el sudor de cristo dibujado sobre un manto
Todas las vidas cayeron al mar
Y es tan suave verlas
Todas las vidas cayeron al mar
Y se van, y se van, y se van
Ella quiso hacerlo tan feliz
El quiso un amor y no una actriz
Ella quiso hacerlo tan feliz…
El y su coraza de marfil
Diseñada a resistir
Los encantos del jazmín
Yo no sé, por qué
Eligió su dulce piel
Fue quizás porque la vió tan sola
Yo no sé ni por qué
Eligió aquella mujer
No hizo más que volverse loca
Y el sudor de cristo dibujado sobre un manto
Todas las vidas cayeron al mar
Y es tan suave verlas
Todas las vidas cayeron al mar
Y se van, y se van, y se van
Ella quiso hacerlo tan feliz
El quiso un amor y no una actriz
Ella quiso hacerlo tan feliz…
Exterior día toma 22
Y el sudor de cristo dibujado sobre un manto

(translation)

It was not filmed in Portugal, that was not in their plan
She unpacked, lit a cigarette and went down to the city
Rome wasn't too bad, I must admit not bad at all
Something holds the spell, she thought, and she drifted away.
For a guy who went down the street of Calvary alone
Real sequence shot, I just have to walk
If she was sure of something, it was that her veronica was not going to cry
Afternoon of crucifixion, they nail the son of god
Keep the script in a yellow bag
And he throws himself into the sun... to dance
All the lives fell into the sea
And it's so soft to see them
All the lives fell into the sea
And they go, and they go, and they go
She wanted to make him so happy...
Exterior day takes 22
And the sweat of Christ drawn on a mantle
All the lives fell into the sea
And it's so soft to see them
All the lives fell into the sea
And they go, and they go, and they go
She wanted to make him so happy
She wanted a love and not an actress
She wanted to make him so happy...
He and his ivory breastplate
Designed to resist
The charms of jasmine
I do not know why
She chose her sweet skin
It was perhaps because he saw her so alone
I don't even know why
chose that woman
She just went crazy
And the sweat of Christ drawn on a mantle
All the lives fell into the sea
And it's so soft to see them
All the lives fell into the sea
And they go, and they go, and they go
She wanted to make him so happy
He wanted a love and not an actress
She wanted to make him so happy...
Exterior day takes 22
And the sweat of Christ drawn on a mantle
