[English]

Baby, what are you waiting for?

You and I clicked the first time our eyes met.

There’s no way I could forget that caramel skin,

that night left its mark on me.

De que me olvide de esa piel canela,

It was like time stopped between us,

face to face, body to body.

I don’t know why we’re so far apart,

it doesn’t make sense to feel this way

and still be walking down different roads.

Baby, you there and me here—

it just doesn’t make sense after everything we lived.

We shared moments, real ones—

this distance isn’t normal.

Baby, you there and me here,

it doesn’t make sense.

It just doesn’t make sense.

It doesn’t make sense.

No, it doesn’t.

Tell me, girl, what happened?

Haven’t heard from you in so long.

Send me your location, I’ll come to you—

I think of you and get chills.

Your name is my escape; sometimes I still watch the video we made.

Desire reaching the sky, clothes on the floor.

It’s been a while since I saw you,

since you wrote to me, since I read you.

I fight with my mind sometimes,

it tells me to forget you, but…

We stopped time that night,

face to face, body to body.

I still don’t know why we’re apart.

It doesn’t make sense, with all these feelings,

that you’re on another path—it’s not normal.

Baby, you there and me here,

it doesn’t make sense after everything we shared.

We lived too much for this distance,

Baby, you there and me here,

it doesn’t make sense.

It doesn’t make sense.

No, it doesn’t.

It doesn’t make sense.

[Spanish]

Baby, ¿qué tú espera'?

Si tú y yo conectamo' la primera

vez que nos vimo' a los ojo'

No hay manera (Óyelo)

De que me olvide de esa piel canela,

quedaron secuela' de esa noche

Que tú y yo paramo' el tiempo

Frente a frente, cuerpo a cuerpo

Yo no sé por qué tan lejos, vos

No tiene sentido que con esto que sentimo'

Tú esté' por otro camino, no es normal

Bebé, tú allá y yo acá,

eso no tiene sentido, baby, si ya coincidimo'

Y un par de cosas vivimos, no es normal

Bebé, tú allá y yo acá,

eso no tiene sentido

Eso no tiene sentido

No tiene sentido

No tiene sentido

Dime, mami, ¿qué fue? ¿Qué se me hizo?

Que hace tiempo no te localizo

Manda ubi', que yo te aterrizo,

te pienso y me erizo

A tu nombre yo me desahogo, el video que hicimo' a veces lo utilizo

Las ganas en el cielo, y la ropa en el piso, bebé

Hace tiempo que no te veo

Que no me escribes, que no te leo

Con mi mente a veces peleo

Porque me dice que me olvide, baby

Que tú y yo paramo' el tiempo

Frente a frente, cuerpo a cuerpo

Yo no sé por qué tan lejos, vos

No tiene sentido que con esto que sentimo'

Tú esté' por otro camino, no es normal

Bebé, tú allá y yo acá,

eso no tiene sentido, baby, si ya coincidimo'

Y un par de cosas vivimos, no es normal

Bebé, tú allá y yo acá,

eso no tiene sentido

Eso no tiene sentido

No tiene sentido

No tiene sentido

Key Grammar Structures

• Baby, ¿qué tú espera'?

  ➔ Interrogative word order, use of 'tú' for informal address, contraction.

  ➔ The sentence uses the interrogative word 'qué' (what) and inverts the subject-verb order. The pronoun 'tú' (you) is used for informal address, and 'espera' is a contraction of 'esperas'. The apostrophe indicates a missing vowel.

• No hay manera (Óyelo) De que me olvide de esa piel canela,

  ➔ Impersonal 'hay', subjunctive mood ('olvide'), relative pronoun 'que'.

  ➔ The phrase 'No hay manera' means 'There is no way'. The verb 'olvide' is in the subjunctive mood because it expresses doubt or uncertainty about whether the speaker will forget. 'Que' introduces a subordinate clause.

• Bebé, tú allá y yo acá, eso no tiene sentido, baby, si ya coincidimo'

  ➔ Use of 'tú' and 'yo' pronouns, contrasting spatial adverbs ('allá', 'acá'), use of 'coincidir' + 'ya'.

  ➔ This line highlights the distance between the speaker and the person they are addressing. 'Allá' means 'there' and 'acá' means 'here'. 'Coincidimos' means 'we coincided' or 'we met', and 'ya' emphasizes that this happened in the past.

• A tu nombre yo me desahogo, el video que hicimo' a veces lo utilizo

  ➔ Reflexive verb ('desahogo'), relative pronoun 'que', past participle as adjective ('hicimo' - made).

  ➔ The speaker finds relief by mentioning the person's name ('A tu nombre yo me desahogo'). 'Hicimo' is a colloquial shortening of 'hicimos' (we made) and modifies 'video'.
