Venus in furs - Lou Reed

Otra vez parece sentirse algo de frío. Son esos momentos que de venir bien, de creer que todo va bien y de sonreir.
Pero el frío está siempre, para que no se pierda la costumbre. Para que no se rompa lo poco que queda intacto. Para que haya un mañana.
Así, al natural te recuerdo a ratos, y hay tanta amargura hasta en eso... que no me gusta recordar así. Y creo que casi de ninguna forma.
Mañana es distinto.

Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Clubs and bells, your servant, don’t forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Downy sins of streetlight fancies
Chase the costumes she shall wear
Ermine furs adorn the imperious
Severin, severin awaits you there

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
Shiny leather in the dark
Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Severin, severin, speak so slightly
Severin, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now plead for me

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Severin, your servant comes in bells, please don’t forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart
