Yo era tu vaso cuando tenías sed
I was your glass when you were thirsty
Como en la mañana yo era tu café
Like in the morning, I was your coffee
Yo era una abeja y tú eras mi miel
I was a bee and you were my honey
Conectamos bien, te lo juro, bebé
We connected well, I swear, babe
Yo te levantaba con tanto amor
I would lift you up with so much love
Yo te ayudaba a olvidar el dolor
I helped you forget the pain
Yo fui el primero con verdadero amor
I was the first one with real love
El que te enseñó mejor
The one who taught you better
Dondequiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo
Wherever I go, I always see you
Tú eras mi gran adicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego
You were my great addiction, my drug, I was your fire
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo
I want that jerk to treat you with respect
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego
My love doesn't end because it's made of fire
Dondequiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo
Wherever I go, I always see you
Tú eras mi gran adicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego
You were my great addiction, my drug, I was your fire
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo
I want that jerk to treat you with respect
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego
My love doesn't end because it's made of fire
Porque está hecho de fuego
Because it's made of fire
Quisiera empezar otro capítulo contigo
I wish to start another chapter with you
Yo sé que es imposible, pero nunca me rajaré
I know it's impossible, but I'll never give up
En encontrarte otra vez
In finding you again
Y poderte amar como antes
And to be able to love you like before
Qué triste, me dejaste con las ganas
How sad, you left me wanting more
Pensé que era "tú y yo" hasta el final
I thought it was 'you and me' until the end
Ay, cómo quisiera presumirte a mis papás
Oh, how I wish I could show you off to my parents
Porque sé cuánto ellos te iban a amar
Because I know how much they would have loved you
Dondequiera que yo voy, yo siempre te veo
Wherever I go, I always see you
Tú eras mi gran adicción, mi droga, yo era tu fuego
You were my great addiction, my drug, I was your fire
Quiero que te trate con respeto ese pendejo
I want that jerk to treat you with respect
Mi amor no se acaba porque está hecho de fuego
My love doesn't end because it's made of fire
Porque está hecho de fuego
Because it's made of fire
