FRENTE A UNA COPA lyrics

LYRICS: Francisco Amor
MUSIC: Elías Wainer

Bebiendo paso la vida
de la mañana a la noche
me siento igual que un fantoche
frente a este alcohol homicida
que asesina mi razón.
Cansado con sed de olvido
en una eterna agonía
quiero olvidar la sombría
visión que todos los días
me llevara sin razón.

Me emborracharon de luz
en mi niñez mis pobres padres.
Me emborrachó de ilusión
la juventud con canto y baile.
Me emborrachó de placer
una mujer que fué mi vida,
y hoy que la siento perdida
se agranda mi herida
que nunca la olvida
ni con alcohol.

Quote of the Day

The tango is really a combination of many cultures, though it eventually became the national music of Argentina. -Yo-Yo Ma
