Entre......

Te busco entre las sombras
entre sabanas vacías
entre cantos sin voz
entre tenues melodías.

Te persigo por las calles
por la ciudad sombría
entre coches y autobuses
entre gente aún dormida

Te descubro por tu aroma
por tus pasos cada día
que guardan notas de encanto
las cuales quiero hacer mías

Te encuentro y te retengo
te repito ya eres mía
te escapas entre las nubes
pero vuelves, entre ondas,
a la vida, con tu dulce melodía.

By Yo


A whiter shade of pale

We skipped the light fandango
And turned cartwheels across the floor
I was feeling kind of seasick
But the crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said "There is no reason,
And the truth is plain to see"
But I wandered through my playing cards
And would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might just as well have been closed

And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale

She said, 'I'm home on shore leave,'
though in truth we were at sea
so I took her by the looking glass
and forced her to agree
saying, 'You must be the mermaid
who took Neptune for a ride.'
But she smiled at me so sadly
that my anger straightway died

If music be the food of love
then laughter is its queen
and likewise if behind is in front
then dirt in truth is clean
My mouth by then like cardboard
seemed to slip straight through my head
So we crash-dived straightway quickly
and attacked the ocean bed

Procol Harum
