|
| el tiempo nos alejo y nos fuimos olvidando.

|
| Y ahora cuando nos cruzamos
| And now when we meet
|
| no quieres ni mirar
| you don't even want to look
|
| y ahora cuando nos cruzamos
| and now when we meet
|
| no quieres saludar.
| you don't want to say hello
|
| Cuantas tardes en el patio, jugamos a policias
| How many afternoons in the yard, we play cops

|
| en el patio de la carcel yo aqui abajo y tu alla arriba.

| And now when we meet
|
| no quieres ni mirar
| you don't even want to look
|
| y ahora cuando nos cruzamos
| and now when we meet
|
| no quieres saludar.
| you don't want to say hello
|
| Y ahora cuando nos cruzamos
| And now when we meet
|
| no quieres ni mirar
| you don't even want to look
|
| y ahora que eres un madero
| and now that you are a tree
|
| no quieres saludar
| you don't want to say hello
|
| no quieres saludar! | you don't want to say hello! |
