[English]

There's nothing left for you to do

but to turn back,

it's time to follow what your heart tells you,

it's time to listen to offers,

it's time to arrive and check in without delay,

if love shows up.

At last you'll get tired of wandering

playing with people,

you left so many times

forever, that in the end

no one will want to believe you,

you left so many times

forever, that in the end

you'll return forever.

You could tell me it's not certain,

that in love there are no guarantees

and yet, what would happen

if you didn't know I'm still waiting for you.

There's nothing left for you to do

but to turn back,

it's time to follow what your heart tells you,

it's time to listen to offers,

it's time to arrive and check in without delay,

if love shows up.

At last you'll get tired of wandering

playing with people,

you left so many times

forever, that in the end

no one will want to believe you,

you left so many times

forever, that in the end

you'll return forever.

You could tell me it's not certain,

that in love there are no guarantees

and yet, what would happen

if you didn't know I'm still waiting for you.

There's nothing left for you to do

but to turn back,

it's time to follow what your heart tells you,

it's time to listen to offers,

it's time to arrive and check in without delay,

if love shows up,

if love shows up,

if love shows up.

[Spanish]

Ya no te queda más que hacer

más que emprender la vuelta,

es hora de cumplir lo que te manda el corazón,

es hora de escuchar ofertas,

es hora de llegar y reportarse sin tardar,

si el amor se presenta.

Al fin te cansarás de andar

jugando con la gente,

te fuiste tantas veces

para siempre que al final

ninguno va a querer creerte,

te fuiste tantas veces

para siempre que al final

volverás para siempre.

Tú me podrás decir que no es seguro,

que en el amor no existen garantías

y sin embargo que pasaría

si no supieras que te espero todavía.

Ya no te queda más que hacer

más que emprender la vuelta,

es hora de cumplir lo que te manda el corazón,

es hora de escuchar ofertas,

es hora de llegar y reportarse sin tardar,

si el amor se presenta.

Al fin te cansarás de andar

jugando con la gente,

te fuiste tantas veces

para siempre que al final

ninguno va a querer creerte,

te fuiste tantas veces

para siempre que al final

volverás para siempre.

Tú me podrás decir que no es seguro,

que en el amor no existen garantías

y sin embargo que pasaría

si no supieras que te espero todavía.

Ya no te queda más que hacer

más que emprender la vuelta,

es hora de cumplir lo que te manda el corazón,

es hora de escuchar ofertas,

es hora de llegar y reportarse sin tardar,

si el amor se presenta,

si el amor se presenta,

si el amor se presenta.
