Letra del Tango Cabeza de novia

Aquel amor no vuelve más,
tan solo fue un pasaje
sueños de romance
como una visión fugaz.
Por qué se fue sin un adiós,
dejándote en el alma
surcos de cariño
llenos de dolor.

Aquel amor no vuelve más,
tan solo fue un pasaje
trozos musicales
igual que soñó Chopin.
Amor no llores, ya tendrá
tu alma sensiblera
la felicidad.

English lyrics of the Tango "Cabeza de novia"

That love won’t return again,
it was just a fleeting passage
dreams of romance
like a fleeting vision.
Why did it leave without a goodbye,
leaving marks on your soul
grooves of affection
filled with pain.

That love won’t return again,
it was just a fleeting passage
musical pieces
just like Chopin dreamed.
Love, don’t cry, your sentimental soul
will have happiness again.
