CHELSEA HOTEL
(Leonard Cohen)

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,
you were talking so brave and so sweet,
giving me head on the unmade bed,
while the limousines wait in the street.
Those were the reasons and that was New York,
we were running for the money and the flesh.
And that was called love for the workers in song
probably still is for those of them left.

Ah but you got away, didn't you babe,
you just turned your back on the crowd,
you got away, I never once heard you say,
I need you, I don't need you,
I need you, I don't need you
and all of that jiving around.

I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel
you were famous, your heart was a legend.
You told me again you preferred handsome men
but for me you would make an exception.
And clenching your fist for the ones like us
who are oppressed by the figures of beauty,
you fixed yourself, you said, "Well never mind,
we are ugly but we have the music."

And then you got away, didn't you babe...

I don't mean to suggest that I loved you the best,
I can't keep track of each fallen robin.
I remember you well in the Chelsea Hotel,
that's all, I don't even think of you that often.

HOTEL CHELSEA
(Leonard Cohen)

Te recuerdo claramente en el Hotel Chelsea,
hablabas tan segura y tan dulcemente
mamándomela sobre una cama deshecha
mientras en la calle te esperaba la limusina.

Esas eran las razones, y esa fue Nueva York,
nos movíamos por el dinero y la carne
y a eso llamaban amor los del oficio.
Probablemente, aún lo es para los que quedan.

Pero te fuiste, verdad nena?
Sólo le diste la espalda a la gente
y te alejaste. Ya nunca volví a oirte decir
Te necesito, no te necesito, Te necesito, no te necesito.
Mientras todos te bailaban alrededor.

Te recuerdo claramente en el Hotel Chelsea.
Ya eras famosa, tu corazón era una leyenda.
Volviste a decirme que preferías hombres guapos,
pero que por mí harías una excepción.

Y cerrando el puño por los que como nosotros
están oprimidos por los cánones de belleza,
te arreglaste un poco y dijiste " No importa,
somos feos pero tenemos la música".

Y entonces te fuiste. No es así tía?
Simplemente diste la espalda a la gente y dijiste:
Te necesito, no te necesito, Te necesito, no te necesito.
Coreándo todos a tu alrededor.

Y no pretendo sugerir que yo te amara mejor.
No puedo llevar la cuenta de cada pájaro que cazaste.
Te recuerdo claramente en el Hotel Chelsea.
Eso es todo, no pienso en tí muy a menudo.
