Silvia Songtext
von Sofía Valdés

Tu mirada
Que se enfoque y no vea pa′ tras
Tu mirada
Que se enfoque y no vea pa' tras

The way that she walks in the room
Is the scent of perfume
Is the river of love that she weeps
She is the keeper of vision
A muse with ambition
A face for the cinema screen
Confident quiet bravado
And next to the bed, keeps a gun and her rosary beads
A star for today or tomorrow, a heart that knows sorrow
With hands that could throw you a feast

Ay que bonita la mujer, la-da
She went from Cuba down to Panama
El Tamborito con el na-na-na
En su casita calling, ven pa′ ca


Cannot place her
'Cause she running and she running
Cannot take her
You know she's clever and she′s cunning
Now we bustin′
And we bustin'
And we bustin′
No, we cannot replace her

Tu mirada
Que se enfoque y no vea pa' tras
Tu mirada
Que se enfoque y no vea pa′ tras

Mujer ha venido a buscar, nunca ha venido a —
Mujer ha venido a buscar, nunca ha venido a —
Mujer–

Ay que bonita la mujer, la-da
She went from Cuba down to Panama
El Tamborito con el na-na-na
En su casita calling, ven pa' ca
Es la reina de su barrio
Su brujería if you know, you know
She will tell you if you listen close
Esa es Silvia, no te metas, no

Mujer ha venido a buscar, nunca ha venido a —
Mujer ha venido a buscar, nunca ha venido a —
Mujer ha venido a buscar, nunca ha venido a —
Mujer ha venido a buscar, nunca ha venido a — Eh
