[Español]

[English]

Se me acaba el argumento

I'm running out of arguments

Y la metodología

And methodology

Cada vez que se aparece frente a mí tu anatomía

Every time your anatomy appears in front of me

Porque este amor ya no entiende

Because this love no longer understands

De consejos ni razones

Advice or reasons

Se alimenta de pretextos y le faltan pantalones

It feeds on pretexts and lacks courage

Este amor no me permite estar en pie

This love doesn't allow me to stand

Porque ya hasta me ha quebrado los talones

Because it has even broken my heels

Aunque me levante volveré a caer

Although I get up, I will fall again

Si te acercas nada es útil para esta inútil

If you come close, nothing helps this useless

Bruta, ciega, sordomuda

Dumb, blind, deaf and mute

Torpe, traste y testaruda

Clumsy, useless and stubborn

Es todo lo que he sido

That's all I've been

Por ti me he convertido

For you I've become

En una cosa que no hace

A thing that does

Otra cosa más que amarte

Nothing else but love you

Pienso en ti día y noche

I think of you day and night

Y no sé cómo olvidarte

And I don't know how to forget you

Ay, ay, ay

Ay, ay, ay

Ay-ay-ay

Ay-ay-ay

Y, ay, ay, ay

And, ay, ay, ay

Y, ay-ay-ay

And, ay-ay-ay

Cuántas veces he intentado

How many times have I tried

Enterrarte en mi memoria

To bury you in my memory

Y, aunque diga: "ya no más"

And, although I say: "no more"

Es otra vez la misma historia

It's the same story again

Porque este amor siempre sabe

Because this love always knows

Hacerme respirar profundo

How to make me breathe deeply

Ya me trae por la izquierda

It already brings me from the left

Y de pelea con el mundo

And fighting with the world

Si pudiera exorcizarme de tu voz

If I could exorcise myself from your voice

Si pudiera escaparme de tu nombre

If I could escape from your name

Si pudiera arrancarme el corazón

If I could rip my heart out

Y esconderme para no sentirme nuevamente

And hide so as not to feel again

Ay-ay-ay

Y, ay, ay, ay

And, ay, ay, ay

Y, ay-ay-ay

And, ay-ay-ay

Ojerosa, flaca, fea, desgreñada

With dark circles, skinny, ugly, disheveled

Torpe, tonta, lenta, necia, desquiciada

Clumsy, silly, slow, foolish, deranged

Completamente descontrolada

Completely out of control

Tú te das cuenta y no me dices nada

You realize and you don't say anything to me

Ves que se me ha vuelto la cabeza un nido

You see that my head has become a nest

Donde solamente tú tienes asilo

Where only you have asylum

Y no me escuchas lo que te digo

And you don't listen to what I tell you

Mira bien lo que vas a hacer conmigo

Look well what you're going to do with me
