_____
The serious man counting money stopped
_____
The braggart showing off stopped
_____
The girlfriend counting the stars
_____
Stopped to see, hear and give way
_____
The sad girl who stayed silent smiled
_____
The sad rose that stayed closed opened
_____
And all the kids got excited
_____
To watch the band go by
_____
Singing love songs
_____
The frail old man forgot his fatigue and thought
_____
That he was still young, went out on the terrace and danced
_____
The ugly girl leaned on the window
_____
Thinking the band was playing for her
_____
The cheerful march spread along the avenue and kept on
_____
The full moon that stayed hidden appeared
_____
My whole city dressed up
_____
To watch the band go by singing love songs
_____
But to my dismay
Everything went back to its place
And each one in their corner
_____
Singing love songs
