English lyrics of Chavela Vargas' "Soledad": Solitude
It was a starless night when you left me
With so much grief and so much pain.
Solitude…
Since the day you left a ghostly silence
Has fallen over the town
Solitude…
The creeks are dry, and in the streets a thousand
Echoes scream at me endlessly
Solitude… Come back already
Come back

Yes, Sheila, you help us to hear new music, old and new, pop and other genres. I just want to tell you that when the songs are not focused on being good compositions,then I lose interest. I love music more than anything, except the God I believe in. The drama and backstory are historical data that can often be irelevent.
