[English]

...

...

- I have the heart of a drifter

and today I lost my lady

where is the love, your gaze?

I know you hate me, but even today I keep asking the moon

if you also dream of me

sleeplessly

and even though I don't give a damn about gifts or money

I truly loved you

I'm being sincere

I never opened my heart to you and never spoke of my desires

I asked God for a chance

a shot

I want to know if this is really a goodbye or just a see you later

I can't be without your love

give me wings

I still haven't forgotten our moments, no matter how small they were

and because I didn't know you were love, they were just moments

I have this need

to ask what would have become of us

...

maybe in another life

because the one who kisses you when you wake up in this one is someone else

...

if missing you were an art

I would paint portraits of your face worth a million

I want to see you and

not just dream of you

but it's my fault for not allowing myself that luxury

if missing you were an art

I would paint portraits of your face worth a million

I want to see you and not just dream of you

but it's my fault for not allowing myself that luxury

...

I said I wanted to leave already

I was playing hard to get just so you'd stay here

I always wanted you to be there

but it was my fault since I never showed you off

and we take it slow

I still love you

I found you in a WhatsApp photo, I feel like I'm losing

I keep looking for you

in this bitter drink

until I don't feel you, I'll keep drinking

no, don't leave me, I want to feel your warmth one more time

thinking you're with me in the car listening to reggaeton

I'm only human and I make mistakes, I ask for your forgiveness

I ask for your forgiveness

if missing you were an art

I would paint portraits of your face worth a million

I want to see you

and not just dream of you

but it's my fault for not allowing myself that luxury

if missing you were an art

I would paint portraits of your face worth a million

I want to see you and not just dream of you

but it's my fault for not allowing myself that luxury

[Spanish]

tengo un corazón de vagabundo

y hoy me quedé sin mi dama

¿dónde está el amor, tu mirada?

se que me odias pero hasta hoy sigo preguntando a la luna

si también me imaginas

desvelada

y eso que a mí me importa un carajo los regalos y el dinero

te amaba de verdad

soy sincero

nunca te abrí el corazón y nunca hablé de mis anhelos

le pedí una chance a dios

una bala

quiero saber si en realidad esto es un adiós o un hasta luego

no puedo sin tu amor

dame alas

aún no olvido tus momentos por pequeños que hayan sido

y por no saberte amor solo fueron

tengo la necesidad

de preguntar qué hubiese sido de nosotros

en otra vida será

pues quien te besa al despertar en esta es otro

si extrañarte fuera un arte

haría cuadros con tu cara que valdrían un millón

quiero verte y

no soñarte

pero es culpa mía no darme ese lujo

si extrañarte fuera un arte

haría cuadros con tu cara que valdrían un millón

quiero verte y no soñarte

pero es culpa mía no darme ese lujo

dije que ya me quería ir

me estaba haciendo el dificil pa que te quedes aqui

siempre quise que tú estés ahí

pero fue mi culpa pues nunca te presumí

y lo hacemos lento

te sigo queriendo

te encontré en la foto de whatsapp, siento que pierdo

te sigo buscando

en ese trago amargo

hasta que no te sienta yo seguiré tomando

no, no me dejes solo quiero sentir una vez más tu calor

pensando que estas conmigo en el carro escuchando reggaetón

soy un ser humano y cometo errores, te pido perdón

te pido perdón

si extrañarte fuera un arte

haría cuadros con tu cara que valdrían un millón

quiero verte

y no soñarte

pero es culpa mía no darme ese lujo

si extrañarte fuera un arte

haría cuadros con tu cara que valdrían un millón

quiero verte y no soñarte

pero es culpa mía no darme ese lujo
