Milonga del Querer

Say that I'm an ogre who doesn't give in
Say that I always have something to hide
Say that I never take you to the movies or out to eat
But don't tell me to stop loving you

Say that you're tormented by ghosts of the past
Say that my alibi is hard to believe
Say that your patience can't take it anymore
But don't tell me to stop loving you

Say that I'm the most difficult type to understand
Say that my machismo is what ruins me
Say that you don't believe I've stopped drinking
But don't tell me to stop loving you

Say that you dreamt of me in the arms of another woman
Say that this milonga won't feed us
Say that sometimes you feel like running away
But don't tell me to stop loving you
