[English]

By the taste your kisses have

I know they've been on another mouth

I thought you weren't one of those

See how one gets it wrong

You're gonna say it's jealousy

And make me look like a crazy person

And even though I've kept quiet for so long

I also have something to tell you

I already have someone else awakening in my skin

And it's so out of the ordinary

Making me feel good

You will come back crazy for me

But don't try to force it

Because this ends here

...

I don't plan to fight

And you can stay with her

With her, with her or her

I'm going to forget you

And you're going to look for me in her

In her, in her or her

And even though I've kept quiet for so long

I also have something to tell you

I already have someone else awakening in my skin

And it's so out of the ordinary

Making me feel good

You will come back crazy for me

But don't try to force it

Because this ends here

...

Ta ra ta ta ta ra

I already have someone else awakening in my skin

And it's so out of the ordinary

Making me feel good

You will come back crazy for me

But don't try to force it

Because this ends here

[Spanish]

Por el sabor que traen tus besos

Sé que han estado en otra boca

Pensé que no eras uno de esos

Ya ves como uno se equivoca

Vas a decir que son los celos

Y hacerme ver como una loca

Y aunque por mucho lo he callado

También tengo algo que decirte

Ya tengo a alguien más despertando en mi piel

Y es tan fuera de lo normal

Haciéndome sentir bien

Ya regresarás delirando por mí

Pero no trates de forzar

Que esto se acaba aquí

Yo no pienso pelear

Y tú te puedes quedar con ella

Con ella, con ella o ella

Yo te voy a olvidar

Y tú me vas a buscar en ella

En ella, en ella o ella

Y aunque por mucho lo he callado

También tengo algo que decirte

Ya tengo a alguien más despertando en mi piel

Y es tan fuera de lo normal

Haciéndome sentir bien

Ya regresarás delirando por mí

Pero no trates de forzar

Que esto se acaba aquí

Ta ra ta ta ta ra

Ta ra ta tata ra

Ta ra ta tata ra

Ta ra ta ta ta ra

Ta ra ta tata ra

Ta ra ta tata ra

Ta ra ta ta ta ra

Ta ra ta tata ra

Ya tengo a alguien más despertando en mi piel

Y es tan fuera de lo normal

Haciéndome sentir bien

Ya regresarás delirando por mí

Pero no trates de forzar

Que eso se acaba aquí

Ta ra ta ta ta ra

Ta ra ta tata ra

Ta ra ta ta ta ra

Ta ra ta tata ra
