Por poco y te desconocí
I almost didn't recognize you
Con un extraño casi te confundí
I nearly confused you with a stranger
A veces me pongo algo mal
Sometimes I feel a bit off
Pensando en la idea de ti
Thinking about the idea of you
Te imagino en el sexo con otras personas
I picture you having sex with other people
O tomando café
Or having coffee
A veces me recuerdas a mi padre
Sometimes you remind me of my father
Es casí cómico que acabe así
It's almost comical that it ended this way
Esta carne parece como una tormenta
This flesh feels like a storm
Te voy a dejar de pensar
I'm going to stop thinking about you
Igual vamos a morir
Still, we are going to die
Y sin querer se cruzó tu ventana
And without meaning to, your window crossed my path
Te ví grabando una canción
I saw you recording a song
Probablemente le harás creer que es para él
You’ll probably make him believe it's for him
Yo sí te amo, yo sí te amo
I do love you, I do love you
Tú eres la vida que he necesitado
You are the life I've needed
Mira qué cosa tan bella
Look at this beautiful thing
Que yo sí te amo, yo sí que te amo
That I do love you, I really do love you
Mi bella paloma, mi pequeña paloma
My beautiful dove, my little dove
Mi estrella en el cielo eres tú
You are my star in the sky
Seguramente, me vas a extrañar
Surely, you're going to miss me
Cuando la tengas dura
When you have it tough
No cabe mi vida en esta casa
My life doesn't fit in this house
Con todo y mi arquitectura
With all my architecture
Seguro le vas a escupir en la boca
You're surely going to spit in her mouth
Y le dirás cuánto le amas
And you'll tell her how much you love her
Probablemente, las flores que dejaste en la mesa se secarán
Probably, the flowers you left on the table will wither
Yo sí te amo, yo sí te amo
I do love you, I do love you
Tú eres la vida que he necesitado
You are the life I've needed
Mira qué cosa tan bella
Look at how beautiful it is
Que yo sí te amo, yo sí que te amo
That I really love you, I truly love you
Mi bella paloma, mi desnuda paloma
My beautiful dove, my naked dove
Mi estrella en el cielo eres tú
You are my star in the sky
Mi gota de rocío
My drop of dew
Oh, mi amor
Oh, my love
Mi estrella en el cielo eres tú
You are my star in the sky
