Lyrics of Cantalojas - Platero Y Tu

Cantalojas (original)

Por el puente Cantalojas
A las doce menos diez
Se ha asomado un borracho
Para ver salir un tren
Su mirada estaba triste
Pues su amor se ha ido en él
Una chica de las Cortes
Ya cansada de vivir
Aguantando a este borracho
Se ha pirado pa' Madrid
Ya no quiere dar más besos
Disfrazados de carmín
Por el puente Cantalojas
A las doce menos diez
Se ha asomado un borracho
Para ver salir un tren;
Su mirada estaba triste
Pues su amor se ha ido en él
En el puente el silencio se puede cortar
Ha roto una botella y se ha puesto a llorar
Y se va caminando, buscando un hogar
Si la luna le guía, lo podrá encontrar

(translation)

Through the Cantalojas bridge
At twelve ten
A drunk has appeared
To see a train leave
His look at her was sad
For her love of him has gone into him
A girl of the courts
already tired of living
Holding this drunk
He has gone to Madrid
She no longer wants to give more kisses
Disguised in carmine
Through the Cantalojas bridge
At twelve ten
A drunk has appeared
To see a train leave;
Her look at him was sad
For her love of him has gone into him
On the bridge the silence can be cut
He has broken a bottle and has begun to cry
And he walks away, looking for a home
If the moon guides him, he can find it
