You have never been in love
until you've seen the stars
reflect in the reservoirs
And you have never been in love
until you've seen the dawn rise
behind the home for the blind
We are the pretty petty thieves
and you're standing on our streets
where Hector was the
first of the gang with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die
Such a silly boy
Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die
Oh my
You haven never been in love
until you've seen the sunlight thrown
over smashed human bone
We are the pretty petty thieves
and you're standing on our streets
where Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die
Oh my
Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and a bullet in his gullet
and the first lost lad
under the sod
And he stole from the rich and the poor
and the not very rich and the very poor
and he stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
Away...
He stole all hearts away
Away...
He stole all hearts away
Away...
He stole all hearts away
Away...Adios pampa mia!...
Me voy...Me voy a tierras extranas.
Adios, caminos que he recorrido,
rios, montes, y canadas,
tapera donde he nacido.
Si no volvemos a vernos,
tierra querida,
quiero que sepas
que al irme dejo la vida.
Adios!...
Al dejarte, pampa mia,
ojos y alma se me llenan
con el verde de tus pastos
y el temblor de las estrellas.
Con el canto de tus vientos
y el sollozar de vihuelas
que me alegraron a veces
y otras me hicieron llorar.
Adios pampa mia!...
Me voy...Me voy a tierras extranas.
Adios, caminos que he recorrido,
rios, montes, y canadas,
tapera donde he nacido.
Si no volvemos a vernos,
tierra querida,
quiero que sepas
que al irme dejo la vida.
Me voy...pampa querida
Me voy...
