Someone like
you
I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married
now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things I didn't give
to you
Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from
the light
I hate to turn up out of the blue,
uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't
fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that
you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you two
Don't forget me, I beg, I remember you
said
Sometimes it lasts in love, but
sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love, but
sometimes it hurts instead
You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised in a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days
I hate to turn up out of the blue,
uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't
fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face and that
you'd be reminded
That for me, it isn't over
Never mind, I'll find someone like you…
Nothing compares, no worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories
made
Who would have known how bittersweet
this would taste?
Never mind, I'll find someone like you…
Never mind, I'll find someone like you…

10 SIGNS YOU WERE
BORN AND RAISED IN ARGENTINA
1. You talk to everyone as if
they’re part of your family.
You’d use the informal “vos” even with
the Pope, who’d appreciate it, of course, because he’s Argentine.
2. You’re not afraid to kiss.
Greeting everyone with a kiss — the
teachers, the waiters, etc. – is normal for you. And you send virtual kisses in
every email written for
work, love, or a fight: “Te mando un beso grande.”
3. If you see a car with a
plastic bottle on its hood/roof, you know that…
It’s for sale! Nobody knows exactly
where this custom came from, but it’s as universal as having asado on Sunday.
4. You know exactly what a
bidet is for.
And you’d like to find them everywhere!
Unfortunately, it seems like other countries are not interested in this
convenient way to keep their “pudendas” clean.
5. You’ve pushed a broken-down
car…more than once.
A friend’s, a neighbour’s, some stranger
is in the middle of the highway. You ended up all sweaty and covered in grease/dirt,
but with your new friends you had the satisfaction of having done your part to
help, which is simply part of our culture.
6. You still have nightmares
about dying after mixing wine and watermelon.
Considered a deadly and lethal combination, wine
and watermelon are never found on the same table. What’s the science, exactly,
behind this folk wisdom?
7. You begin each phrase with
a long “Cheeee.”
“Che” is accompanied by any other
appropriate word: the always effective “boludo/a” (or “asshole”) or the milder
“¿viste?” (see?). And depending on context, you need the universally qualifying
adjective “re.” So it’s like: “Cheeee, estoy re feliz. Me vi con Fulano el
finde, ¿viste?”
8. You don’t believe that
sharing a mate is sharing germs with your friends.
Or maybe you believe it but you don’t care. And you’d
never (EVER) think of using your own
mate in a group. Mate is for sharing.
9. Friends are…
People we love. Even if we grow up
punching each other. We just eat dinner together and then like new we’re family
again, because there’s no friend like an Argentine.
10. You’re born knowing that
life is simple pleasures.
You cry easily and you laugh really hard
at any phrase mentioned by
your friends. You go from being furious to being the happiest person living on
the planet. There’s always room for one more person at the table. There’s
always a reason to make a toast, a joke, to discuss, to complain. You’re
Argentine; you have an incomparable capacity to enjoy the simple things in
life.
