Y tardes en Rock-Ola,

Entre todas las demás,

sabía ser natural.

Ella misma y nada mas:

Y cuando hablaba, su voz,
And when she spoke her voice,
sus gestos y su figura
her manners and her figure
revelaban un estilo.
hinted at a style.
Su don
Her particular blessing.
Peinada como Louise Brooks,
Her hair done as Louise Brooks 3,
un tango a media luz,
a tango with the lights half on,
derrumbó para mi
and then, for me she cast down
su frialdad sin temor.
her cold exterior without fear.
Cómo temblaba su cuerpo...
Oh, how her body trembled...

Historias de amor intenso,

guerra y paz, cielo e infierno.

Hemos caminado juntos
We've walked together
por sitios no descubiertos,
on uncharted grounds,
sitios no descubiertos...

Oh, sí...

Cómo temblaba su cuerpo...

Cuando fuimos solo dos
