about

"Un hombre por siempre enamorado espera en un bar a una elegante mujer vestida de negro que antes cantaba todas las noches allí y que nunca regresará"

" A man waits in vain in a bar for a woman dressed in black who sang there every night. She will never come back again"

lyrics

LYRICS AND MUSIC: AURORA PEREZ RODRIGUEZ
ARRANGEMENTS: ANGEL PEREZ RODRIGUEZ

Once upon a time in 1941
There was a man who was enchanted by a girl dressed in black
Every Thursday night he went to see her singing, she was clapped.
She was the precious jewel of the “Moonlighting bar”.

What´s your name? he asked her one day
I can´t say it, I´m just allowed to play
He, he, he, he could never express
All the things he felt when he listened to her.

She sings in his mind a slow lullaby

Chorus->Black dressed woman
Night is made of velvet like her voice
Soft and slippery like oil
Decadent whisper in the night that´s fallen from a shooting star…
This was the girl dressed in black

One day it was raining a lot out in the street
The man was a little late, she probably was about to sing
He, he, he, he was in a hurry
But when he arrived no one was in the scenery

He never believed that she simply disappeared

Chorus

Solo

If you go to this place you´ll see an old man
Who´s always sit in a chair with a bottle in his hand
You´ll think he seems a beggar but he´s waiting in the bar
For a woman dressed in black that never came back.
Oh she never came back…
