Feliz Año

We wanted to change the world
Because we didn't agree
Like almost no one
At least that's what I hope
We wanted so many things
That we always postponed them
Replacing them with others
Of which we are now slaves.

Now that the year is ending
And a little more of us
Slips away
It's time to renew
The unfulfilled promises.

We wanted to go south
To the sun that heats the most
Play rancheras and tangos and blues
Mixed in sea and tequila
And savor every drink
Believing ourselves immortal
And that only the years will pass
For others.

Now that the year is ending
And a few more of us
Slip away
It's time to renew
The unfulfilled promises.
