Lyrics & Translation

[Spanish]

[English]

Digamoslo, que se sienta en la piel

Let's say it, let it be felt on the skin

Aquella noche nada salió muy bien

That night nothing went very well

Quisiste dar un paseo con él

You wanted to take a walk with him

Qué mala idea hacerlo donde yo esté

What a bad idea to do it where I am

No nos tenemos ni un poco de amor

We don't have even a bit of love for each other

Y sin embargo esto no se terminó

And yet this isn't over

Y ahora pasamos de mal a peor

And now we're going from bad to worse

Y si hoy te veo con él, los mato a los dos

And if I see you with him today, I'll kill you both

Es un decir, no es literal

It's just a saying, not literal

Pero quisiera hacerlo en realidad

But I wish I could do it for real

Los celos ya son para mí

The jealousy is already too much for me

Algo difícil de llevar (algo difícil de lleva-a-a-a-a-r)

Something hard to bear (something hard to bear-a-a-a-a)

Mentía, cuando te decía

I was lying when I told you

"Quédate tranquila, corazón"

“Stay calm, my heart”

Nos separaremos en términos buenos

We'll part on good terms

Vuelvo con mi vida, soy buen perdedor (dor-d-d-dor)

I’ll get back to my life, I’m a good loser (loser-d-d-d)

Y ahora, te sigo a toda hora

And now, I follow you all the time

Tengo que saber con quién estás

I need to know who you're with

No es nada positivo y se vuelve adictivo

It's nothing positive and it becomes addictive

Y yo pensé que a mí no me podía pasar

And I thought it couldn't happen to me

(No, no me podía pasar)

(No, it couldn't happen to me)

Quiero tenerte conmigo otra vez

I want to have you with me again

Y si te tengo sé que te dejaré

And if I have you, I know I’ll let you go

Hay algo en ti que nunca aguantaré

There's something in you that I can never stand

Y es eso mismo lo que me hace volver

And it's that very thing that makes me come back

Quisiera verte y parar de pensar

I wish I could see you and stop thinking

Con quien estuviste la noche anterior

About who you were with the night before

Ya tengo que poder disimular

I have to be able to hide it

Verte con otro y no tratarte peor

To see you with someone else and not treat you worse

Como lo ves, nada cambió

As you see, nothing has changed

Desde ese día que nos separó

Since that day that separated us

Te seguiré, me humillaré

I will follow you, I will humiliate myself

Por el momento es lo que haré (por el momento es lo que haré)

For now, that's what I will do (for now, that's what I will do)

Mentía, cuando te decía

I was lying when I told you

"Quédate tranquila, corazón"

“Stay calm, my heart”

Nos separaremos en términos buenos

We'll part on good terms

Vuelvo con mi vida, soy buen perdedor (dor-d-d-dor)

I’ll get back to my life, I’m a good loser (loser-d-d-d)

Y ahora, te sigo a toda hora

And now, I follow you all the time

Tengo que saber con quién estás

No es nada positivo y se vuelve adictivo

Y yo pensé que a mí no me podía pasar
