Cover art for Alcoba Azul lyrics by Lila Downs

The night will continue without the haste of nostalgia This tango will be our wound And this bleeding accordian will represent our souls This night will be our day, all of our days

Come back to me Love me without the need of light, in our blue alcove Where there was never any sun to shine on us

Blind me Kill my heart in our shared blue alcove, My love

This song is absolutely perfect. It depicts the heartaches that a woman has gone through because of the one whom she truley loves. She cant bear to be without him, therefore she seeks the solace of a time when the physical attractions did not cloud the two's shared love. She yearns for him to love her in the dark, that way they'll just have each other's thoughts and sensations, rather than simple lust. The tango itself is a very powerful song which works very well in conveying the singers feelings. It is said that for the tango to be danced correctly, there has to be a certain level of chemsitry between those dancing. Be it love or lust...clearly, this song can only be appreciated through those who are experiencing it...
