Monday morning and you don’t even realize it yet, down to the last drop of the last bottle. Marisoul of La Santa Cecilia and Eugenia Leon sing “En El Ultimo Trago”:
Drink with me this bottle
and with the last drop we will go away.
I want to see what means your oblivion,
please don’t cover my eyes with your hands
*
Tonight I’m not going to beg you,
tonight you will tell me the truth.
How hard it is having to forget you
without feeling that you don’t love me anymore.
*
The time hasn’t taught me anything,
I always make the same mistakes,
I drink again and again with strangers
and mourn because of the same sorrows.
*
Drink with me this bottle
and with the last drop you will kiss me.
Let’s hope there would be no witnesses
in case you were feeling embarrassed.
*
If one day unintentionally we stumble,
neither duck, nor don’t tell me straight.
We will simply shake hands
and after that people will murmur.
*
The time hasn’t taught me anything,
I always make the same mistakes,
I drink again and again with strangers
and mourn because of the same sorrows.
*
Drink with me this beloved bottle
and with the last drop we will go away.
