Quisiera ser el aire que respiras
I wish I could be the air you breathe
Quisiera ser el rizo de tu pelo
I wish I could be the curl of your hair
Quisiera ser tu séptimo sentido
I wish I could be your seventh sense
Quisiera ser un voltio en tu bombillo
I wish I could be a volt in your lightbulb
Y prender el alba, y amasar la noche
And spark the dawn, and shape the night
Y salir contigo disfrazado de horizonte eh-eh-eh
And go out with you disguised as the horizon eh-eh-eh
Quisiera que me hablarás cuando callas
I wish you would speak to me when you’re quiet
O al menos ser el nudo en tu garganta
Or at least be the knot in your throat
Quiera ser la silla que te aguanta ah-ah
I want to be the chair that holds you ah-ah
Tu zafacon de besos escondidos
Your treasure trove of hidden kisses
Y contar contigo, y doblar las calles
And count on you, and turn the streets
Y sembrar guayabas, y soñar con mil detalles, oh
And plant guavas, and dream of a thousand details, oh
Quisiera, hay tantas cosas más quisiera
I wish, there are so many things I wish for
Quisiera, hay tantas cosas más quisiera
I wish, there are so many things I wish for
Revelar tus ojos, celebrar tu nombre
To reveal your eyes, to celebrate your name
Y salir contigo disfrazado de horizonte eh-eh
And go out with you disguised as the horizon, eh-eh
Quisiera ser el asa de tus ojos
I wish to be the handle of your eyes
El calcio que te dan tus vitaminas
The calcium that your vitamins give you
Tu ruta cuando cruzas la neblina ah-ah
Your path when you cross the mist, ah-ah
Y el cordón umbilical de tus zapatos, oh
And the umbilical cord of your shoes, oh
Y contar contigo, y doblar las calles
And count on you, and turn down the streets
Y sembrar guayabas, y soñar con mil detalles, oh
And plant guavas, and dream of a thousand details, oh
Quisiera, hay tantas cosas más quisiera
I wish, there are so many more things I wish for
Quisiera, hay tantas cosas más quisiera
I wish, there are so many more things I wish for
Revelar tus ojos, celebrar tu nombre
To reveal your eyes, to celebrate your name
Y salir contigo disfrazado de horizonte, eh
And go out with you disguised as the horizon, eh
Quisiera, hay tantas cosas más quisiera
I wish, there are so many more things I wish for
Quisiera, hay tantas cosas más quisiera, yo
I wish, there are so many more things I wish for, I
Quisiera, hay tantas cosas más quisiera
I wish, there are so many more things I wish for
Quisiera, hay tantas cosas más quisiera
I wish, there are so many more things I wish for
