Margarita (english Version)

Demis Roussos

MARGARITA

A cinco millas de la ciudad
Está loco, dijo que los vecinos
Yo era blanca, ella era marrón
Pero corríamos al río
Y depongan nuestros cuerpos
Entre sus suspiros nos encantarían las mentiras
Eso nos siguió

Margarita, Margarita
The softness of your body and the hunger in my soul
Are the only secrets I'll ever know
Margarita.

We grew up together
While our families worked the land
And the shadows never touched
The places where we ran
But as the years went drifting by
The harvest turned to sand
She went away I had to stay
I'll never understand.

Margarita, Margarita
The softness of your body and the hunger in my soul
Are the only secrets I'll ever know
Margarita.

Sometimes in the evening
At the closing of the day
I look down on the valley
Where we used to lay
And now there's just a whisper
Of an old familiar name
Margarita, give anything to see you
It feels that good to say.

Margarita, Margarita
The softness of your body and the hunger in my soul
Are the only secrets I'll ever know
Margarita.
