Te marchaste en tu barco de papel
You sailed away in your paper boat
Diciendo que el amor tiene sus dudas
Saying that love has its doubts
Y me dejaste sin sueños otra vez
And left me without dreams once again
Como un espectador de tus locuras
Like a spectator of your craziness
Y se marchó también mi fantasía
And my fantasy set sail too
Detrás de tu partida silenciosa
Behind your silent departure
Sabiendo que un ejército de espinas
Knowing that an army of thorns
Protege a tu suerte caprichosa
Protects your whimsical fate
Y se escapó el amor, amor aventurero
And love slipped away, adventurous love
Raíces de cartón y corazón de acero
Cardboard roots and a heart of steel
Y se escapó el amor, robándose tu pelo
And love slipped away, stealing your hair
Y se llevó también las noches bajo el cielo
And it took away the nights under the sky as well
Y se escapó el amor, el hueco de mi cama
And love slipped away, the empty space in my bed
Lo mismo que un ladrón saltó por la ventana
Just like a thief, it jumped out the window
Y se escapó el amor detrás de tu mentira
And love slipped away behind your lie
Abriendo una vez más la misma herida
Opening once more the same wound
La misma herida, ah
The same wound, ah
De pronto me quedé sin esperanza
Suddenly I was left without hope
Tu barco de papel no se veía
Your paper boat was nowhere to be seen
Y alarma le dí un poco de confianza
And I gave a little trust to the alarm
Trepándome a la rueda de la vida
Climbing up the wheel of life
Y se escapó el amor, amor aventurero
And love escaped, adventurous love
Raíces de cartón y corazón de acero
Roots made of cardboard and a heart of steel
Y se escapó el amor, robándose tu pelo
And love escaped, stealing your hair
Y se llevó también las noches bajo el cielo
And it also took the nights under the sky
Y se escapó el amor, el hueco de mi cama
And love escaped, the empty space in my bed
Lo mismo que un ladrón saltó por la ventana
Just like a thief, it jumped out the window
Y se escapó el amor detrás de tu mentira
And love escaped behind your lie
Abriendo una vez más la misma herida
Opening once again the same wound
La misma herida, ah
The same wound, ah
Saltó por la ventana
Jumped out the window
Ese amor que pa' mi no estaba
That love that wasn't for me
No estaba para mi este amor fugaz
This fleeting love wasn't meant for me
Yo que pensaba que era de verdad
I who thought it was real
Saltó por la ventana
Jumped out the window
Ese amor que pa' mi no estaba
That love that wasn't for me
Y ahora me encuentro en la soledad
And now I find myself in solitude
Por culpa de tus mentiras
Because of your lies
Y se escapó el amor
And love slipped away
Me liberé, me liberé
I freed myself, I freed myself
Te juro que no vuelvo
I swear I'll never return
Yo no volveré
I won't come back
Y se escap el amor
And love slipped away
Me liberé, me liberé
I set myself free, I set myself free
