Rio Rebelde

I threw your handkerchief into the river
To watch it sink
It was the last memory
Of the affection I had from you
It slowly drifted away
Like your love
But the river one day

To the beach at last
Will bring it back to me
But I know well
That never again
Will I be happy
Without your joys

I will remember you
In my solitude
In that nest
That was left without light
When I realized
That you were no longer mine
