Tren a Cartagena
Veranos del ayer
Goleta ligera
Embriagado vaivén
Tren a Cartagena
Veranos del ayer
Madera risueña
Sueño de mi niñez.
El humo del andén
Tu pitazo resonó
Y a mi infancia navegué
Como un barco bajo el sol
Hoy añoro tus terrazas
Tus veleros de postal
Tus calles encabritadas
Galopando hacia el mar
Tren a Cartagena
Veranos del ayer
Arena morena
Rumoroso edén
Tren a Cartagena
Veranos del ayer
Alegre colmena
Asoleada piel
Nadie espera en el andén
Es de noche en ámsterdam
Y en el gris de la estación
Como un niño busco el sol
Hoy añoro tus terrazas
Tus veleros de postal
Tus calles encabritadas
Galopando hacia el mar
Tren a Cartagena
Veranos del ayer
