Another Christmas I asked for you.

Another Christmas

that you're not here.

Happy New Year, but not so happy. They

gave you a kiss at midnight and it wasn't me

who gave it to you. A year ago I was

there. A year ago I was

there. A year ago your first hug

was only for me. You had me on cloud nine and

like lightning I fell, fell, fell. And now

not even a call,

not a single message.

My friends are teasing me. They say I'm

on a trip.

It's 12:04

and I'm already drunk, crying and

drinking.

Coconut pitorro that my grandpa brought me

for me to enjoy,

not to cry over a girl at two in the

morning.

[Music]

[Applause]

Tumba.

[Music]

I asked for you from the Three Kings and Santa

Claus. The Kings failed and Santa never

came. If you're not here, it's almost

God's will. I always knew you were bad.

Don't think I'm blind. I closed

my eyes and kissed you again.

With double six and double five. You

blocked me later. We're the same.

We'll see each other later.

Hopefully, I won't meet another like you. Uh uh. You

are bad. You left like the light. Anyway, your face came to me at

midnight when the year ended.

Uh, uh, uh. And it hurt

Uh, uh, uh. Y me dolió

that not even a call,

not a single message.

They're teasing me. They say I'm

on a trip.

It's 12:04

and I'm already drunk, crying and

drinking.

And coconut pitorro that my grandpa brought me

for me to enjoy,

not to cry over a girl at midnight.

[Applause]

[Music]

Be careful,

be careful.

[Spanish]

Otra Navidad en la que te pedí.

Otra Navidad

que no está aquí.

Feliz año nuevo, pero no tan feliz. Te

dieron un beso a las 12 y no fui yo

quien te lo di. Hace un año que yo

estuve ahí. Hace un año que yo estuve

ahí. Hace un año tu primer abrazo

fue solo para mí. Me tenías en la nube y

como un rayo caí, caí, caí. Y ahora

ni una llamada,

ni un solo mensaje.

Los brother me la montan. Dicen que

estoy en un viaje.

Son las 12:4

y ya estoy bien loco llorando y

bebiendo.

Pitorra de coco que me trajo abuelo

para que vacilara,

no para que por un cuero a las dos se

llorara.

[Música]

[Aplausos]

Tumba.

[Música]

Te pedí para los reyes y para Santa

Claus. Los Reyes picharon y santo nunca

llegó. Si tú no estás aquí, fue casi

quiso Dios. Siempre supe que era mala.

No te creas que soy ciego. Yo cerraba

los ojos y te besaba de nuevo.

Con el doble seis y doble cinco. Me

trancaste luego. T yos somos iguales.

Nos veremos luego.

Ojalá no conozco otra como tú. Uh uh. Tú

eres mala. Te fuiste como la luz. Como

quiera me vino tu cara las 12 cuando el

año se acabó.

Uh, uh, uh. Y me dolió

que ni una llamada,

ni un solo mensaje.

Los me lo montan. Dicen que estoy en un

vi.

Son las 12:4

y ya estoy bien loco llorando y

bebiendo.

Y torre de coco que me trajo abuelo

para que vacilar,

no para que por un cuero a las 12 lloró.

[Aplausos]

[Música]

Ten cuidado,

ten cuidado.

Key Grammar Structures

• Otra Navidad en la que te pedí.

  ➔ Relative Clause

  ➔ The phrase "en la que te pedí" modifies "Navidad". It means 'in which I asked you for'. The relative pronoun "que" refers back to "Navidad".

• Feliz año nuevo, pero no tan feliz.

  ➔ Contrastive Conjunction

  ➔ "Pero" (but) introduces a contrast to the initial statement of wishing a happy new year. It indicates that the new year isn't as happy as expected.

• Te dieron un beso a las 12 y no fui yo quien te lo di.

  ➔ Impersonal Se + Past Passive, Relative Pronoun

  ➔ "Te dieron un beso" uses the impersonal 'se' to indicate someone gave you a kiss. "quien te lo di" is a relative clause identifying *who* gave the kiss – and it wasn't me.

• Hace un año que yo estuve ahí.

  ➔ Present Perfect Progressive (emphasizing duration)

  ➔ The structure "Hace + time + que + verb" emphasizes how long ago something started and continues to be relevant. "Estuve" is the preterite of *estar* (to be), indicating a completed state in the past.

• Me tenías en la nube y como un rayo caí, caí, caí.

  ➔ Idiomatic Expression, Repetition for Emphasis

  ➔ "Me tenías en la nube" is an idiom meaning 'you had me head over heels' or 'you made me feel on top of the world'. The repetition of "caí" (I fell) emphasizes the sudden and dramatic nature of the fall.
