Letra del Tango Que falta que me hacés

¡No estás!
Te busco y ya no estás.
Espina de la espera
que lastima
más y más…
Gritar
tu nombre enamorado.
Desear
tus labios despintados,
como luego de besarlos…
¡No estás!
Te busco y ya no estás.
¡Qué largas son las horas
ahora que no estás!…

Qué ganas de encontrarte
después de tantas noches.
Qué ganas de abrazarte,
¡qué falta que me haces!…
Si vieras que ternura
que tengo para darte,
capaz de hacer un mundo
y dártelo después.
Y entonces, si te encuentro,
seremos nuevamente,
desesperadamente,
los dos para los dos.

English lyrics of the Tango "Que falta que me hacés"

You’re not here!
I search for you and you’re gone.
The thorn of waiting
that hurts
more and more…
To shout
your beloved name.
To desire
your faded lips,
like after kissing them…
You’re not here!
I search for you and you’re gone.
How long are the hours
now that you’re not here!…

Such longing to find you
after so many nights.
Such longing to embrace you,
how much I miss you!…
If you could see the tenderness
I have to give you,
capable of creating a world
and giving it to you later.
And then, if I find you,
we will once again be,
desperately,
the two for the two.
