[English]

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

That night nothing went very well

You wanted to take a walk with him

What a bad idea to do it where I am

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

And yet this isn't over

And now we're going from bad to worse

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

It's just a saying, not literal

But I wish I could do it for real

The jealousy is already too much for me

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

I was lying when I told you

“Stay calm, my heart”

We'll part on good terms

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

And now, I follow you all the time

I need to know who you're with

It's nothing positive and it becomes addictive

And I thought it couldn't happen to me

(No, it couldn't happen to me)

I want to have you with me again

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

There's something in you that I can never stand

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

I wish I could see you and stop thinking

About who you were with the night before

I have to be able to hide it

To see you with someone else and not treat you worse

As you see, nothing has changed

Since that day that separated us

I will follow you, I will humiliate myself

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

I was lying when I told you

“Stay calm, my heart”

We'll part on good terms

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

And now, I follow you all the time

I need to know who you're with

It's nothing positive and it becomes addictive

And I thought it couldn't happen to me

I was lying when I told you

“Stay calm, my heart”

We'll part on good terms

I’ll get back to my life, I’m a good loser

And now, I follow you all the time

I need to know who you're with

It's nothing positive and it becomes addictive

And I thought it couldn't happen to me

It's nothing positive and it becomes addictive

And I thought it couldn't happen to me

(No, it couldn't happen to me)

[Spanish]

Digamoslo, que se sienta en la piel

Aquella noche nada salió muy bien

Quisiste dar un paseo con él

Qué mala idea hacerlo donde yo esté

No nos tenemos ni un poco de amor

Y sin embargo esto no se terminó

Y ahora pasamos de mal a peor

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

Es un decir, no es literal

Pero quisiera hacerlo en realidad

Los celos ya son para mí

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

Mentía, cuando te decía

"Quédate tranquila, corazón"

Nos separaremos en términos buenos

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

Y ahora, te sigo a toda hora

Tengo que saber con quién estás

No es nada positivo y se vuelve adictivo

Y yo pensé que a mí no me podía pasar

(No, no me podía pasar)

Quiero tenerte conmigo otra vez

Y si te tengo sé que te dejaré

Hay algo en ti que nunca aguantaré

Y es eso mismo lo que me hace volver

Quisiera verte y parar de pensar

Con quien estuviste la noche anterior

Ya tengo que poder disimular

Verte con otro y no tratarte peor

Como lo ves, nada cambió

Desde ese día que nos separó

Te seguiré, me humillaré

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

Mentía, cuando te decía

"Quédate tranquila, corazón"

Nos separaremos en términos buenos

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

Y ahora, te sigo a toda hora

Tengo que saber con quién estás

No es nada positivo y se vuelve adictivo

Y yo pensé que a mí no me podía pasar

Mentía, cuando te decía

"Quédate tranquila, corazón"

Nos separaremos en términos buenos

Vuelvo con mi vida, soy buen perdedor

Y ahora, te sigo a toda hora

Tengo que saber con quién estás

No es nada positivo y se vuelve adictivo

Y yo pensé que a mí no me podía pasar

No es nada positivo y se vuelve adictivo

Y yo pensé que a mí no me podía pasar

(No, no me podía pasar)
