Carnaval

Is it you, babe? Is it you?
How are you?
Are you dancing? With who?
With a big shot

So well dressed
You make an impression
I'm telling you
For real

Have I changed that you
Don't even look at me?
And without even saying goodbye
You're about to go in

Don't rush
While your big shot
Pays for the car
I'll tell you

Where are you going with a Manila shawl?
Where are you going with such a nice costume?
Nowhere less than a fancy dance
Where the entrance costs a fortune
You've made progress, babe!
You traded in calico for silk
You're disguised as rich, daddy
The best thing I saw at Carnival

Life goes on
And you moved on too
I'm the same
As I was your love yesterday
Not much
Just a good guy
Less money than dreams

And here at the door
Tired of wandering
I watch the masked ones
Enter the dance
You enter too
And the welcome
In a low voice
I'll tell you

Have fun, kind Colombina
With your serious and wealthy Harlequin
Buyer of affection and laughter
With his never-ending bag

Flirt with your rich costume
That Pierrot couldn't offer you
Because the disguise only lasts one night
As it's burned by the Sun's rays
