The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "El Ascensor" by Luis Eduardo Aute.

Lyrics

Se detuvo entre dos pisos
no supimos por qué, tras gritar,
golpeamos
las paredes y puertas.
Nadie vino,
pasaron las horas y sudabas
como yo, el oxígeno se agotaba
segundo a segundo.
Desnudos ya, desnudos
y el sudor,
sudor asfixiado en el abrazo
histérico.
Te olía a limones salvajes,
frescos, misteriosos, exóticos, excitantes,
en ellos está encerrado todo el perfume
de la aventura,
la aventura de los limones salvajes de caribe,
la aventura de «Fa».
Se han hallado en un ascensor
los cadáveres desnudos de un hombre
de cuarenta y dos años y una mujer
joven indocumentada en actitud
poco decorosa.
El forense, una vez practicada
la autopsia…
la policía
prosigue la investigación.

Lyrics translation

It stopped between two floors
we didn't know why, after screaming,
hit
walls and doors.
No one came.,
the hours passed and you were sweating
like me, oxygen was running out
second by second.
Naked already, naked
and sweat,
choking sweat in the embrace
hysterical.
It smelled like wild lemons.,
fresh, mysterious, exotic, exciting,
in them is enclosed all the perfume
of adventure,
the Caribbean wild lemon adventure,
the adventure of " Fa."
They have been found in an elevator
the naked corpses of a man
forty-two years old and a woman
undocumented young woman in attitude
not very decent.
The coroner, once practiced
autopsy…
police force
the investigation continues.
