Lyrics & Translation
You want to hide
That I don't know what it is
And it's already hurting me
Please
Don’t put doubts between us
That today
Can tear us apart
Answer me
Even if it hurts, tell me why
Your eyes don’t shine like they did yesterday
When you look at me
You’re lying
I know you well
It’s clear that
Something is changing
Speak, don’t run away from me
Point-blank, I already saw
What is it that’s got you like this?
Visibly shaken
At the altar
Of my particular faith
Nothing, no one matters to me more
Than the music of your lips
You’re bitter sugar
A delirium and a sin
A chest of blind surprises
You kiss me and...
You’re bitter sugar
An angel and a devil
Damned liar, I only feel
That I’m losing you
Hate
Having to be the one
Who forces you to take
That first step
If there’s anyone else besides me
Right now and here
We stop in peace
I will undo
Inside, I will break apart
From pain, but I won’t give
A single step to stop you
You’re bitter sugar
A delirium and a sin
A chest of blind surprises
You kiss me and...
Me besas y...
You’re bitter sugar
An angel and a devil
The man I love, but I feel
That I no longer have you
At the altar
Of my particular faith
You’ve always been the best, the most
The mirror I look into
You’re bitter sugar
A delirium and a sin
A chest of blind surprises
You kiss me and...
You’re bitter sugar
An angel and a devil
Damned liar, how it hurts
To know I’m losing you
Bitter sugar
A delirium and a sin
A chest of blind surprises
You kiss me and...
You’re bitter sugar
An angel and a devil
Damned liar, how it hurts
To know I’m losing you
