Yo te extraño, yo te extraño
I miss you, I miss you
Me extraño a mí
I miss myself
Estoy solo, estoy solo
I'm alone, I'm alone
No estás aquí
You're not here
La chica que esperaba era infinita
The girl I was waiting for was infinite
Como el bajo que perdí
Like the bass I lost
Pegaba las canciones con curitas
I used to tape the songs with band-aids
Hay algo sangrando
There's something bleeding
Hay algo que sangra porque
There's something that bleeds because
Yo te extraño, yo te extraño
I miss you, I miss you
Estoy solo, estoy solo
I'm alone, I'm alone
Ya no soy mí
I am no longer me
Y si ya no hay más noches estrelladas
And if there are no more starry nights
Ni lugares dónde ir
Nor places to go
La música está ya muy separada
The music is now very far apart
Nadie va a grabar, nadie va a grabarme a mí
No one is going to record, no one is going to record me
Hay veces que no puedo dormir
There are times when I can't sleep
Hay veces que no quiero
There are times when I don't want to
Hay veces que me gustaría verte aquí
There are times when I wish I could see you here
Todo el mundo tiene penas
Everyone has their sorrows
Pero yo ya extraño hasta tus problemas
But I already miss even your troubles
Quiero eco, vuelme a mí porque
I want echoes, come back to me because
Yo te extraño
I miss you
La chica que esperaba era infinita
The girl I was waiting for was infinite
Como el bajo que perdí
Like the bass that I lost
Pegaba las canciones con curitas
I patched the songs with Band-Aids
Y hay algo que sangra
And there's something that bleeds
Y hay algo que sangra en mí
And there's something that bleeds in me
Hay noches que no puedo dormir
There are nights when I can't sleep
Hay noches que no puedo dormir
There are nights when I can't sleep
Hay noches que no puedo dormir
There are nights I can't sleep
Sin curitas
Without little band-aids
