Tengo un corazón
I have a heart
Mutilado de esperanza y de razón
Mutilated by hope and reason
Tengo un corazón
I have a heart
Que madruga donde quiera
That wakes early wherever it may be
¡Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
Y ese corazón
And that heart
Se desnuda de impaciencia ante tu voz
Undresses in impatience at your voice
Pobre corazón
Poor heart
Que no atrapa su cordura
That can't capture its sanity
Quisiera ser un pez
I wish I were a fish
Para tocar mi nariz en tu pecera
To touch my nose in your fishbowl
Y hacer burbujas de amor por dondequiera
And make bubbles of love everywhere
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Pasar la noche en vela
To spend the sleepless night
Mojado en ti
Soaked in you
Un pez
A fish
Para bordar de corales tu cintura
To embroider your waist with corals
Y hacer siluetas de amor bajo la luna
And create love silhouettes under the moon
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Saciar esta locura
To quench this madness
Mojado en ti
Soaked in you
Tururu, ah-ah
Tururu, ah-ah
Tururu, ah-ah
Tururu, ah-ah
Canta, corazón
Sing, my heart
Con un ancla imprescindible de ilusión
With an essential anchor of hope
Sueña, corazón
Dream, my heart
No te nubles de amargura
Don't cloud yourself with bitterness
¡Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!
Y este corazón
And this heart
Se desnuda de impaciencia ante tu voz
Naked with impatience before your voice
Pobre corazón
Poor heart
Que no atrapa su cordura
That can't hold onto its sanity
Quisiera ser un pez
I wish I were a fish
Para tocar mi nariz en tu pecera
To touch my nose in your fish tank
Y hacer burbujas de amor por dondequiera
And make bubbles of love everywhere
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Pasar la noche en vela
To spend the night awake
Mojado en ti
Wet in you
Un pez
A fish
Para bordar de corales tu cintura
To embroider your waist with corals
Y hacer siluetas de amor bajo la luna
And create silhouettes of love under the moon
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Saciar esta locura
Quench this madness
Mojado en ti
Drenched in you
Una noche para hundirnos
A night to drown in each other
Hasta el fin
Until the end
Cara a cara, beso a beso
Face to face, kiss to kiss
Y vivir
And live
Por siempre mojado en ti
Forever drenched in you
Quisiera ser un pez
I wish I were a fish
Para tocar mi nariz en tu pecera
To touch my nose in your fishbowl
Y hacer burbujas de amor por dondequiera
And make bubbles of love everywhere
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Pasar la noche en vela
To spend the night awake
Mojado en ti
Wet with you
Un pez
A fish
Para bordar de cayenas tu cintura
To embroider your waist with cayenne
Y hacer siluetas de amor bajo la luna
And make silhouettes of love under the moon
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Saciar esta locura
To quench this madness
Mojado en ti
Wet with you
(Para tocar mi nariz en tu pecera)
(To touch my nose in your fishbowl)
(Y hacer burbujas de amor por dondequiera)
(And make bubbles of love everywhere)
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Pasar la noche en vela
Spending the night awake
Mojado en ti
Wet with you
Un pez
A fish
(Para bordar de cayenas tu cintura)
(To weave your waist with cayennes)
(Y hacer siluetas de amor bajo la luna)
(And make silhouettes of love under the moon)
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Vaciar esta locura
Empty this madness
Mojado en ti
Soaked in you
