[English]

If every night I come to talk to you at your window

Waiting for you to give me an answer

And there we are until time stops us

The routine at your window, just the two of us

If there are mornings I call you at dawn

And suddenly I get into your room

And I look at you while you sleep face to face

That face that breaks my heart

That’s why I want to be the word

That you break with your mouth without thinking

That you dream every night there in bed

That your saliva guards without touching it

I want to be the poetry of your lips

I want to be your dream

If it's your window crying when you're gone

If you are the queen that my loneliness wishes for

If you are the story I didn't want to end

If you are the star that keeps shining, oh

That’s why I want to be the word

That you break with your mouth without thinking

That you dream every night there in bed

That your saliva guards without touching it

I want to be the poetry of your lips

I want to be your dream

That’s why I want to be the word

That you break with your mouth without thinking

That you dream every night there in bed

That your saliva guards without touching it

I want to be the poetry of your lips

I want to be your dream

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah, ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah, ah

That's why I want to be the word (the word)

That you break with your mouth without thinking (without thinking)

That you dream every night there in bed

That your saliva guards without touching it

I want to be the poetry of your lips

I want to be your dream

I want to be your dream

[Spanish]

Si cada noche voy a hablarte a tu ventana

Esperando a que me des una contestación

Y ahí estamos hasta que el tiempo nos para

La rutina en tu ventana, siempre los dos

Si hay mañanas que te llamo cuando el alba

Y de repente yo me meto en tu habitación

Y te miro mientras duermes a la cara

Esa cara que me rompe el corazón

Por eso quiero ser la palabra

Que rompes con tu boca sin pensarla

Que sueñas cada noche allí en la cama

Que tu saliva cuida sin tocarla

Quiero ser la poesía de tus labios

Quiero ser tu sueño

Si es tu ventana la que llora cuando faltas

Si eres la reina que quisiera mi soledad

Si eres el cuento que no quise que acabara

Si eres la estrella que no deja, ay, de brillar

Por eso quiero ser la palabra

Que rompes con tu boca sin pensarla

Que sueñas cada noche allí en la cama

Que tu saliva cuida sin tocarla

Quiero ser la poesía de tus labios

Quiero ser tu sueño

Por eso quiero ser la palabra

Que rompes con tu boca sin pensarla

Que sueñas cada noche allí en la cama

Que tu saliva cuida sin tocarla

Quiero ser la poesía de tus labios

Quiero ser tu sueño

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah, ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah, ah

Por eso quiero ser la palabra (la palabra)

Que rompes con tu boca sin pensarla (y sin pensarla)

Que sueñas cada noche allí en la cama

Que tu saliva cuida sin tocarla

Quiero ser la poesía de tus labios

Quiero ser tu sueño

Quiero ser tu sueño
