Why have you gone away?
I've lost myself in the night
Why didn't you tell me that you were mine?
I don't know
Maybe it's the wind or maybe it's you
The voice who answers to my questions
Come on, gallopp as faster as you can
Come on, rush and don't stop
Because we have so many miles to travel
Yeah, I know
I see a tavern that
Can take off my thirst and dust
I throw some Pesos* to the cantinero**
Who never speaks
Beside me there is a gringo, a stranger
He asks me "Man, where do you go?"
NORTH SOUTH WEST EAST
And maybe what I'm searching doesn't exists
NORTH SOUTH WEST EAST
Maybe I'm searching her or maybe myself
Between desert and meadow
Why did you stop?
I was tired and hungry, my friend
Yeah, I know
Some huts, a tribe
From the bottom the shaman looks upwards
"White man, come here"
Be careful, don't go!
"I can predict your future, if you want"
Say no!
I smile and answer "OK"
In the pebbles he observs my things
Paleface, she's cheating you
You won't find her
Are several months that you are riding
Tell me where you'll go
NORTH SOUTH WEST EAST
And maybe what I'm searching doesn't exists
NORTH SOUTH WEST EAST
Maybe I'm searching her or maybe myself
The town is celebrating and you
Finally have come
You have black looks, you don't look at me anymore
Yeah I know
The caballero beside you
Why he's hugging you and watching me?
I brush my Colt a little
Please, don't do it!
Then I turn away, look at the sky, where will I go?
Adios, mi amor!
Everyone is dancing around me
Under the colors of the lamps
And the wind is whispering me
You won't stop
There's someone who's wating for you
You know where you will go
NORTH SOUTH WEST EAST
And maybe what I'm searching doesn't exists
NORTH SOUTH WEST EAST
Maybe I'm searching her or maybe myself
