Lyrics
Mirando correr el río
Le dije casi en silencio
Vas a tener que andar mucho
Para ganarle a mi sueño
Y sobre la arena fresca
La cabeza dibujé
De una pasión imposible
Que me escribía de Santa Fe
Y una noche correntina
De aquellas que no se igualan
Estaba la toscarera
Conversando con el agua
Enero estaba fundiendo
Sobre el río su calor
Y junto al perfil querido
Puse mi vena de verseador
Mira que cabeza loca
Poner sus ojos en mí
Yo que siempre ando de paso
No podré hacerte feliz
Olvídame te lo ruego
Yo soy como el Paraná
Que sin detener su marcha
Besa la playa y se va
Que sin detener su marcha
Besa la playa y se va
En una noche correntina
De aquellas que no se igualan
Estaba la toscarera
Conversando con el agua
Enero estaba fundiendo
Sobre el río su calor
Y junto al perfil querido
Puse mi vena de verseador
Mira que cabeza loca
Poner sus ojos en mí
Yo que siempre ando de paso
No podré hacerte feliz
Olvídame te lo ruego
Yo soy como el Paraná
Que sin detener su marcha
Besa la playa y se va
Que sin detener su marcha
Besa la playa y se va
Lyrics translation
Watching the river run
I told him almost silently
You're gonna have to walk a lot
To beat my dream
And on the fresh sand
The head I drew
Of an impossible passion
Who wrote To Me from Santa Fe
And a current night
Of those that do not match
There was the toscarera
Talking to the water
January was melting
Over the river its heat
And next to the beloved profile
I put my pourer vein
Look at that crazy head.
Put your eyes on me
I always walk by
I can't make you happy
Forget me I beg you
I am like the Parana
That without stopping his March
Kiss the beach and go
That without stopping his March
Kiss the beach and go
On a current night
Of those that do not match
There was the toscarera
Talking to the water
January was melting
Over the river its heat
And next to the beloved profile
I put my pourer vein
Look at that crazy head.
Put your eyes on me
I always walk by
I can't make you happy
Forget me I beg you
I am like the Parana
That without stopping his March
Kiss the beach and go
That without stopping his March
Kiss the beach and go
