The Rumba of Forgiveness

You and your must trusted friend
Joined at the hip, but something happened
There was an uncut kilo in your drawer
And out of pure envy, someone stole it from you
Your best friend, the one that played guitar
What could've happened?
Suddenly the guitar wasn't playing anymore
And not even the phone was ringing
He must not have been such a good friend
When we unscrewed the guitar's strings loose
From the first to the board
And in there he put the kilo and just like the kilo
He was also gone
But I
 
I forgive you for everything ((Nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, na)
I forgive you for everything ((Nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, na)
I forgive you for everything ((Nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, na)
I forgive you for everything ((Nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, na)
 
When you said, "I'm going down for cigarettes"
Looking at the eyes of your youngest son
You promised him you'd be back in no time
And you never crossed the threshold you left from
But
I know you're the one for me
I know you're the one for me
I know you're the one for me
I know you will come to me
The street says you're the one for me
The one that knows says you're the one for me
People on the square say you're the one for me
Tell your mother you're the one for me
 
I forgive you for everything ((Nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, na)
I forgive you for everything ((Nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, na)
I forgive you for everything ((Nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, na)
I forgive you for everything ((Nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, nonaino, na)
 
To the one that doesn't have any blood in his veins
First comes poison and then sorrow
The one that thinks she can escape the divine plan
And the one that's screaming at her neighbor from the fifth to the fourth floor
The one that's always talking and making things up
The one that never says what he thinks even though he should
The one that left me before he left his bottle
The one that bites her fists in rage and rage bites her
When power weighs more than love
When fear is in you and desire all around you
The one that stabbed someone to death and his hand didn't even shake
He stuck his knife so deep he lost it
The one that has the soul of a saint but keeps sinning
When you've lied for the sake of lying or you've lied for your truth
When you've wanted for more than what God wanted to give you
To tie and to untie, to get undressed yourself and to undress someone
To do it properly, you'll need three things
Fire in your hands, tenderness in your eyes
And me present there
Technically that would be a threesome
But if I only watch, it won't count
