Letra del Tango Que te importa que te llore

Déjame mentir que volverás

que volverás con el ayer,

con el ayer de nuestro sueño.

Déjame esperarte, ¡nada más!,

ya que comprendo que esperar

es un pedazo de recuerdo,

se que este dolor, es el dolor de comprender

que no puede ser esa esperanza

que me ahoga.

Déjame llorar, siempre llorar,

y recordarte y esperar

al comprender que no volverás.

Qué te importa que te llore,

qué te importa que me mientas

si ha quedado roto mi castillo del ayer,

déjeme hacer un Dios con sus pedazos.

Qué te importa lo que sufro,

qué te importa lo que lloro…

si no puede ser aquel ayer de la ilusión,

déjame así llorando nuestro amor.

Mucho te esperé sin comprender,

sin comprender por qué razón

te has alejado y no volviste.

Mucho te esperé; fatal dolor

de consumir la soledad

en el calor de lo que fuiste.

Debes indicarme qué camino continuar

ya que es imposible que se junten nuestras vidas.

Déjame llorar, siempre llorar,

no ves que ya ni sé qué hablar,

ni qué mentir, ni qué esperar.

English lyrics of the Tango "Que te importa que te llore"

Let me pretend that you will return,
that you will come back with yesterday,
with the yesterday of our dream.
Let me just wait for you,
since I understand that waiting
is a piece of memory,
I know this pain, is the pain of realizing
that hope cannot be,
that drowns me.

Let me cry, always cry,
and remember you, and wait,
realizing you will not return.

What does it matter to you if I cry,
what does it matter to you if I lie,
if my castle of yesterday lies shattered,
let me create a god from its pieces.
What does it matter to you what I suffer,
what does it matter to you what I cry…
if it cannot be that yesterday of illusion,
let me stay here crying our love.

I waited for you without understanding,
without understanding the reason why
you drifted away and did not return.
I waited for you so long; the fatal pain
of bearing the loneliness
in the warmth of what you were.
You must tell me which path to follow
since it’s impossible for our lives to merge again.
Let me cry, always cry,
don’t you see that I no longer know what to say,
what to lie about, what to expect.

Story behind the Tango Que te importa que te llore

“Que te importa que te llore,” which translates to “What does it matter to you that I cry,” encapsulates the sentiments of heartache and longing. The protagonist pleads for permission to lie about a return that will never happen, to live within an illusion of the past. It is a narrative of unrequited love, where memories and dreams are the only solace against the pain of reality. This Tango tracks the journey of dealing with the irrevocable loss of love, venturing into the depths of individual sorrow and despair.

Symbolism of Que te importa que te llore

Miguel Caló employs poignant symbolism to magnify the emotional intensity of the lyrics. Central to this are the metaphors of “mi castillo del ayer” (my castle of the past) and “un Dios con sus pedazos” (a God from its pieces). The castle symbolizes structured, yet fragile, hopes and dreams built around a relationship that have crumbled, while creating a god from its remains suggests a desperate attempt to cling onto whatever fragments are left of those dreams. Each phrase amplifies the theme of attempting to preserve what has irrevocably changed or ended.
