[English]

I thought we were different

And now that we're not, tell me, what should I do?

When we broke up, I changed, but not for the better

Baby, after so much, pride sank us

Bring me another glass of Don Julio

I found out you have someone else and today I'm going to be-, ha

Today I'm going to drink because once again

I had to learn the hard way

It's normal that I lose my desire

Damn, you clipped my wings

Today I'm going to drink because once again

I had to be the one who gets hurt

After so much love and so many years

Tell me how I go on, tell me if I'm fooling myself

You knew everything before anyone else

You knew everything before I even knew it

You wore my merch months before selling it

And now we don't even want to see each other

I feel cheated

And you because your mother has another son-in-law

Another summer where I can't sleep

Because of love, I'm losing faith in the modern world

Kisses don't feel tender anymore

Hugs hurt me, I live in endless heartbreak

And don't talk to me, don't talk to me

In my mind, I'm your Benito and you're my unforgettable dance

We come from where shoes hang from the cables

From where love is impossible

And that's how it was

It went wrong like we knew it would

And now not even the one above rows in our favor

We no longer talk to God before sleeping

I've gotten used to feeling bad and

Baby, after so much, pride sank us

I've already finished my glass of Don Julio

Your story popped up with that guy and I saw he's your boyfriend now

Today I'm going to drink because once again

I had to learn the hard way

It's normal that I lose my desire

Damn, you clipped my wings

Today I'm going to drink because once again

I had to be the one who gets hurt

After so much love and so many years

Tell me how I go on, tell me if I'm fooling myself

Our little boat's sail sank

I tried to turn the page with leather and chains and nothing

I came back home without money and with the same problem

The bed is empty and my head is full of dreams

Singing "Can You Imagine" by De La

And wondering if you'll really imagine it

I remember our first blind date

And that doesn't help me, give me the bottle because

Today I'm going to drink because once again

I had to learn the hard way

It's normal that I lose my desire

Damn, you clipped my wings

Today I'm going to drink because once again

I had to be the one who gets hurt

After so much love and so many years

Tell me how I go on, tell me if I'm fooling myself

You knew everything before anyone else

[Spanish]

Yo pensaba que éramo' distinto'

Y ahora que no lo somos dime, ¿qué hago?

Cuando lo dejamo' cambié, pero no cambié a bien

Baby, despué' de tanto nos hundió el orgullo

Tráiganme otro vaso de Don Julio

Que me enteré de que tiene otro y hoy voy a be-, ja

Hoy voy a beber porque otra vez

Me tocó aprender a la' mala'

Normal que se me quiten la' gana'

Maldita, me cortaste la' ala'

Hoy voy a beber porque otra vez

Me tocó ser al que le hacеn daño

Despué' de tanto amor y tanto' año'

Dime cómo sigo, dimе si me engaño

Tú sabías todo antes que nadie

Tú sabías todo antes de yo mismo saberlo

Vestías mi merch meses antes de venderlo

Y ahora no queremo' ni verno'

Yo porque me siento estafado

Y tú porque tu madre tiene otro yerno

Otro verano más que no duermo

Por culpa del amor estoy perdiendo la fe en el mundo moderno

Ya lo' beso' no lo' veo tierno'

Los abrazo' me dañan, vivo en un desamor interminable

Y no me hablen, no me hablen

En mi mente yo soy tu Benito y tú mi baile inolvidable

Venimo' de donde cuelgan zapato' de los cable'

De donde el amor es imposible

Y así fue

Salió mal como supimo' que iba a irnos

Y ahora ni el de arriba rema a favor nuestro

Ya no hablamos con Dios antes de dormirno'

Me acostumbré al mal cuerpo y

Baby, después de tanto nos hundió el orgullo

Ya me bajé el vaso de Don Julio

Me salió tu story con aquel y vi que ahora es tu novio

Hoy voy a beber porque otra vez

Me tocó aprender a la' mala'

Normal que se me quiten la' gana'

Maldita, me cortaste la' ala'

Hoy voy a beber porque otra vez

Me tocó ser al que le hacen daño

Despué' de tanto amor y tanto' año'

Dime cómo sigo, dime si me engaño

A nuestro barquito se le hundió la vela

Intenté pasar página con cuero' y cadena' y na'

Volví a casa sin dinero y con el mismo problema

La cama vacía y la cabeza llena de sueño

Cantando "Tú Te Imaginas" de De La

Y pensando si te lo imaginará' de vera'

Me acuerdo de nuestra primera cita a ciega'

Y eso no me ayuda, denme la botella que

Hoy voy a beber porque otra vez

Me tocó aprender a la' mala'

Normal que se me quiten la' gana'

Maldita, me cortaste la' ala'

Hoy voy a beber porque otra vez

Me tocó ser al que le hacen daño

Despué' de tanto amor y tanto' año'

Dime cómo sigo, dime si me engaño

Tú sabías todo antes que nadie
