[English]

Uh-uh, uh-uh

...

That you'll stay with me for a whole lifetime

That with you, winter goodbye, only spring

That the waves are magic and not salty water

I believe everything you say and you give me nothing

You give me nothing

That if I follow your path, I'll reach heaven

You lie right to my face and I go blind

...

I swallow your words, you play a game

And the world lights up for me when you say, "later"

When you say, "later"

When you say, "I feel"

I feel that you're everything

When you say, "my life, I'll be with you"

You take my hand

And inside I cry

Even if it's a lie, you make me feel alive

Even if the air is fake

I feel like I'm breathing

You lie so well

It feels like the truth to me

Everything you give me

I'm already falling in love with you

You lie so well

That I've come to imagine

That my love fills your skin

And although it's all made of paper, uh-uh

You lie so well

...

When you say, "I feel"

I feel that you're everything

When you say, "my life, I'll be with you"

You take my hand

And inside I cry

Even if it's a lie, you make me feel alive

Even if the air is fake

I feel like I'm breathing

You lie so well

It feels like the truth to me

Everything you give me

I'm already falling in love with you

You lie so well

That I've come to imagine

That my love fills your skin

And although it's all made of paper

...

You lie so well, uh-uh, uh-uh

And although it's all made of paper

...

You lie, I know

...

[Spanish]

Uh-uh, uh-uh

Que te quedarás conmigo una vida entera

Que contigo, adiós invierno, solo primavera

Que las olas son de magia y no de agua salada

Yo te creo todo y tú no me das nada

Tú no me das nada

Que si sigo tu camino llegaré hasta el cielo

Tú me mientes en la cara y yo me vuelvo ciego

Yo me trago tus palabras, tú juegas un juego

Y me brilla el mundo cuando dices: "luego"

Cuando dices: "luego"

Cuando dices: "siento"

Siento que eres todo

Cuando dices: "vida, yo estaré contigo"

Tomas de mi mano

Y por dentro lloro

Aunque sea mentira, me haces sentir vivo

Aunque es falso el aire

Siento que respiro

Mientes tan bien

Que me sabe a verdad

Todo lo que me das

Ya te estoy amando

Mientes tan bien

Que he llegado a imaginar

Que en mi amor llenas tu piel

Y, aunque todo es de papel. uh-uh

Mientes tan bien

Cuando dices: "siento"

Siento que eres todo

Cuando dices: "vida, yo estaré contigo"

Tomas de mi mano

Y por dentro lloro

Aunque sea mentira me haces sentir vivo

Aunque es falso el aire

Siento que respiro

Mientes tan bien

Que me sabe a verdad

Todo lo que me das

Ya te estoy amando

Mientes tan bien

Que he llegado a imaginar

Que en mi amor llenas tu piel

Y, aunque todo es de papel

Mientes tan bien, uh-uh, uh-uh

Y, aunque todo es de papel

Mientes, lo sé
