Gotas de Veneno

Yo quisiera un tango hecho de ternura
Que unos ojos negros me hiciera olvidar
Ojos que me siguen siempre por la vida
Y no me abandonan ni para soñar
Con sus labios rojos y ojeras violetas
Mi existencia fácil ella envenenó
Dejando a mi madre y a mi noviecita
Comencé el camino gris de mi dolor
Yo he gustado el vino que adormece el alma
Yo también fui compadrón
Mi vida no tuvo ni un rayo
De calma que alumbrase
El cielo de mi corazón
Hoy muero a la sombra de lo que ayer fuera
Triste vivo de ilusión
Tan solo ella puso sobre mis quimeras
El triste gemido que da el bandoneón
Pero en esta vida la dicha termina
Y mis penas pronto se disiparán
Si la rosa muere se quiebra la espina
Mis buenos amigos ya me olvidarán
Tan solo imborrable quedará el recuerdo
Ceñido al pasado de un modo tenaz
De aquella que un día vertió su veneno
En la fuente pura de mi ingenuidad
