Blues del sur (track #6)

BLUES FROM THE SOUTH
© Lucio Arce

Blue tango
Blues from the south
In the corner of a neon bar
It’s Paris
New York
It’s La Boca, Uruguay and Japan
It’s Mexico, Madrid
It’s Havanna, Berlin
It’s a “paisa” (*) singing away in Medellin
The nostalgia of being
Away from your place
And suddenly hearing Gardel

(*) Paisa: Native from the province of Antioquia, Colombia.
