Lyrics & Translation

[Spanish]

[English]

Y que duro es ver que todo lo que quieres se te escapa entre las manos

And how hard it is to see that everything you want slips through your fingers

Entender que tú ya no

To understand that you no longer

Y que yo sí

And that I do

Me quedo aquí sentado

I stay here sitting

Viendo como un para siempre se convierte en un amor equivocado

Watching how a forever turns into a wrong love

A partir de ahora no

From now on, no

No quiero a nadie, a nadie

I don't want anyone, anyone

Aquí a mi lado

Here by my side

Ay, ay, ya está, se va encendiendo solo

Oh, oh, it's already starting to ignite on its own

Es como un huracán dentro de ti que va incendiando todo

It's like a hurricane inside you that sets everything on fire

Ay, ay, ya está, te llega en un segundo se queda en ti, en mí

Oh, oh, it's already here, it reaches you in a second, it stays in you, in me

Aquí y ahora, y que se acabe el mundo

Here and now, and let the world end

Y si dices que no entiendes, te dirá que lo has sentido

And if you say you don't understand, it will tell you that you've felt it

Que no puedes detener aquello que ya está contigo

That you can't stop what is already with you

Y no importa lo que creas esto es "tu, mí, me, conmigo"

And it doesn't matter what you believe, this is "you, me, with me"

Y perdona si te llamo amor, pero yo no lo decido

And forgive me if I call you love, but I don't decide it

Tú dirás lo que tú quieras, pero ya me necesitas, tenlo claro

You will say what you want, but you already need me, make it clear

Aunque tú me digas no, yo seré sí, mis besos serán disparos

Even if you say no, I will be yes, my kisses will be shots

Pararé cuando me creas, tú no sabes cómo y cuánto te he esperado

I will stop when you believe me, you don't know how and how much I've waited for you

A partir de ahora yo haré que tú me quieras aquí a tu lado

From now on, I will make you love me here by your side

Ay, ay, ya está, se va encendiendo solo

Oh, oh, it's already starting to ignite on its own

Es como un huracán dentro de mí que va incendiando todo

It's like a hurricane inside me that sets everything on fire

Ay, ay, ya está, me llega en un segundo se queda en mi y en ti

Oh, oh, it's already here, it reaches me in a second, it stays in me and in you

Aquí y ahora, y se detiene el mundo

Here and now, and the world stops

Y si dices que no entiendes, te dirá que lo has sentido

And if you say you don't understand, it will tell you that you've felt it

Que no puedes detener aquello que ya está contigo

That you can't stop what is already with you

Y no importa lo que creas esto es "tu, mí, me, conmigo"

And it doesn't matter what you believe, this is "you, me, with me"

Y perdona si te llamo amor, pero yo no lo decido

And forgive me if I call you love, but I don't decide it

No lo decido

I don't decide it

Tú dirás lo que tú quieras, pero ya me necesitas, tenlo claro

You will say what you want, but you already need me, make it clear

A partir de ahora yo haré que tú te quedes aquí a mi lado

From now on, I will make you stay here by my side

Y si dices que no entiendes, te dirá que lo has sentido

And if you say you don't understand, it will tell you that you've felt it

Que no puedes detener aquello que ya está contigo

That you can't stop what is already with you

Y no importa lo que creas esto es "tu, mí, me, conmigo"

And it doesn't matter what you believe, this is "you, me, with me"

Y perdona si te llamo amor, pero yo no lo decido

And forgive me if I call you love, but I don't decide it

Ay, ay, ya está, se va encendiendo solo

Oh, oh, it's already starting to ignite on its own

Es como un huracán dentro de ti que va incendiando todo

It's like a hurricane inside you that sets everything on fire

Tú no puedes detener aquello que ya está contigo

You can't stop what is already with you

Y perdona si te llamo amor

And forgive me if I call you love
