La Carretera

It's raining and it's wet,
The highway.
How long is the road!
What a long wait!
Miles passing by,
Thinking of her.
What a night! What silence!
If she only knew.
That I'm driving,
Thinking of her.

The car lights,
Passing by.
The noise of trucks,
Speeding up.
There's no one on the street,
And it's raining.
The towns along the way,
Are already sleeping.
And I'm driving,
Thinking of her.
I'm still on the highway,
Looking for you.
At the end of the road,
I'll find you.
I sped up.
The bars at this hour,
Are closing.
Hotels for couples,
Always waiting.
A train crosses my path,
It's long and slow.
Thoughts are eating me up.
Thinking of her,
Thinking of her.

Thinking, imagining,
My doubt increases.
I drift off on a curve,
Without realizing.
The needle marks,
140.
I'm still on the highway,
Looking for you.
At the end of the road,
I'll find you.
I sped up.
It's raining and it's wet,
The highway.
And I feel jealous,
Thinking of her.
Lost between doubt
And the mist.
I'm getting lonely
And out of gas.
It's raining and it's wet,
The highway.
It's night and there's silence,
What a long wait.
