paroles de chanson Romance In Durango (”Romance In Durango”) - Jordi Batiste & Gerard Quintana

Hot chili peppers in the blistering sun
Dust on my face and my cape
Me and Magdalena on the run
I think this time we shall escape
Sold my guitar to the baker's son
For a few crumbs and a place to hide
But I can't get another one
And I play for Magdalena as we ride

No llores, mi querida
Dios nos vigila
Soon the horse will take us to Durango
Agarrame, mi vida
Soon the desert will be gone
Soon you will be dancing the fandango

Past the aztec ruins and the ghosts of the people
Who beat like castanets on stone
At night I dream of bells in the village steeple
And I see the bloody face of Ramon
Was it me that shot him down in the cantina?
Was it my hand that held the gun?
Come on, let us fly, my Magdalena
The dogs ain't barkin' and we're stone to stone

No llores, mi querida
Dios nos vigila
Soon the horse will take us to Durango
Agarrame, mi vida
Soon the desert will be gone
Soon you will be dancing the fandango

At the corrida we will sit in the shade
And watch the young toreros stand alone
We'll drink tequila where our grandfathers stayed
When they rode with Villa into Torreon
Then the padre will recite the praise of all
In a little church this side of town
I will wear new boots and an earring of gold
You'll shine with diamonds in your wedding gown

No llores, mi querida
Dios nos vigila
Soon the horse will take us to Durango
Agarrame, mi vida
Soon the desert will be gone
Soon you will be dancing the fandango

What's that, the thunder that I hear?
My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
Come sit by me, don't say a word
How can it be that I must lay?
Quick, Magdalena, take my gun
Look up in the hills, that flash of light
I am well, my little one
We may not make it through the night

No llores, mi querida
Dios nos vigila
Soon the horse will take us to Durango
Agarrame, mi vida
Soon the desert will be gone
Soon you will be dancing the fandango
