[English]

Love is supposed to make you happy

But I live thinking the worst

That if one day you want to distance yourself from me

That if you find someone better

Who hugs you and kisses you

Like I could never do

And that you never remember

How much I knew how to love you

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you, my love

The storm that I know, the charm of women

The beauty and pleasures, because I was also bait

For useless ones in bars, wiping their noses

Hiding scars, getting out of limousines

I've seen, my love, more than I should

I've said things I would never tell you

Give me your warmth, for I bring a cold soul

And don't trust anyone else

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you, my love

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you, my love

I no longer want to fear you, I want to have you in my bed

Adore you and deserve you, hug you even tighter

And say my name, shout it out, for this world is ours

Shout our love loud and let God hear us

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you (I pray for you, I plead on my knees)

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you, my love (stay here, stay with me)

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you

I was born with such bad luck

I'm afraid of losing you, my love

I am, I am the unfortunate one

I am

[Spanish]

Se supone que el amor te hace feliz

Pero yo vivo pensando lo peor

Que si un día quieres alejarte de mí

Que si encuentras a alguien que sea mejor

Que te abrace y te bese

Como yo nunca lo pude hacer

Y que nunca más te acuerdes

De cuánto yo te supe querer

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte, amor

La tormenta que conozco, el encanto de las mujeres

La belleza y los placeres, porque también yo fui carnada

De inútiles en cantinas, limpiándose las narices

Escondiendo cicatrices, bajando de limusinas

He visto, amor, más de lo que debería

He dicho cosas que nunca te diría

Dame tu calor, que traigo el alma fría

Y no confía en nadie más

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte, amor

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte, amor

Yo ya no quiero temerte, quiero en mi cama tenerte

Adorarte y merecerte, abrazarte aún más fuerte

Y di mi nombre, grítalo, que este mundo es de los dos

Grita fuerte nuestro amor y que nos escuche Dios

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte (yo pido por ti, pido de rodillas)

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte, amor (que te quedes aquí, quédate conmigo)

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte

Yo nací con tanta mala suerte

Tengo miedo de perderte, amor

Yo soy, soy la desafortunada

Soy
