Lyrics
Quince años que he dejado
mi barrio abandonado,
corriendo por las calles
de un mundo de quimeras.
Quince años que se han ido,
mas yo no me he olvidado
de vos, barrio testigo,
de aquellas primaveras.

Cruzando por tus calles
camino emocionado,
ya no te queda nada
del viejo malecón.
Tan sólo como velorio
de todo tu pasado,
ahí queda haciendo guardia
tu antiguo bodegón.

Ya no está la que ayer
esperaba mi pasada.
Su balcón se cerró
y está triste la barriada.
Y ese amor
jamás podré olvidar,
muchachos, apesar
del tiempo que pasó.
Hoy no está,
mas vuelvo a su balcón
y a quién has de evocar
mi corazón.

Quisiera ser muchacho
volver a lo que era,
tener la misma pinta
de cuando dije adiós.
Me siento triste y viejo
y pienso, si pudiera,
romperle las agujas,
la vida es un reloj.
English translation
Fifteen years I have left
my abandoned neighborhood,
running through the streets
of a world of chimeras.
Fifteen years that have gone,
but I have not forgotten
of you, witness neighborhood,
of those springs.

Crossing your streets
I walk with emotion,
you have nothing left
of the old boardwalk.
Only as a wake
of all your past,
there remains standing guard
your old bodegón.

Gone is the one who yesterday
awaited my passing.
Her balcony is closed
and the neighborhood is sad.
And that love
I will never be able to forget,
boys, despite
of the time that has passed.
He's gone today,
but I return to his balcony
and to whom will you evoke
my heart.

I would like to be a boy
to go back to what I was,
I'd like to look the same
as when I said goodbye.
I feel sad and old
and I think, if I could
to break its hands,
life is a clock.
