Periódico de ayer [English translation]

Your love is like yesterday’s newspaper

which no one wants to read anymore

a sensation when it was published early in the morning,

confirmed news by midday

and forgotten stuff in the afternoon

Your love is like yesterday’s newspaper

it made the headlines on the whole of the front page

that’s why you’re known everywhere

your name is a cutting I kept

to then glue it in my oblivion album

Your love is like yesterday’s newspaper

which no one wants to read anymore

the comment which started early in the morning

and the news spread around was the two of us,

and in the afternoon we were forgotten stuff

Your love is yesterday’s newspapeeeer...

and what’s the point in reading yesterday’s paper?
