Solo debes ver la puerta
You just have to see the door
La ventana está abierta
The window is open
He mirado nuevamente las estrellas en el planetario
I've looked again at the stars in the planetarium
Como cuando era chica
Like when I was a little girl
Te visito en el barrio
I visit you in the neighborhood
Yo te pienso todo el año
I think of you all year long
No me olvido que dijiste que tenías la piel morena
I don't forget you said you had brown skin
Y por eso tú podías hacer lo que quisieras
And that's why you could do whatever you wanted
Salvador, eres salvador
Salvador, you are a savior
El de ojitos dormilones, quiero abrazarte, quiero cuidarte
The one with sleepy little eyes, I want to hug you, I want to take care of you
Salvador, eres salvador
Savior, you are a savior
Nadie puede lastimarte, porque sueñas, porque cantas
No one can hurt you, because you dream, because you sing
Porque tú eres tu salvador
Because you are your own savior
De repente te despiertas
Suddenly you wake up
Y en tu mente pajas vuelan
And in your mind, fantasies take flight
Cuando mueras nacerás en el cuerpo de cualquier otro animal
When you die, you will be born in the body of any other animal
Donde tú quieras
Wherever you want
Salvador, eres salvador
Savior, you are a savior
El de ojitos dormilones, quiero abrazarte, quiero cuidarte
The one with sleepy little eyes, I want to hug you, I want to take care of you
Salvador, eres salvador
Savior, you are a savior
Nadie puede lastimarte porque sueñas, porque cantas
No one can hurt you because you dream, because you sing
Porque tú...
Because you...
Vamos a tomar tecito
Let's have some tea
Y te voy a hacer un pan con margarina
And I'm going to make you a bread with margarine
Me gusta verte cuando comes
I love to see you when you eat
Con tantas ganas
With so much desire
No quiero que te falte nada
I don't want you to lack anything
Salvador
Salvador
El de ojitos dormilones
The one with sleepy little eyes
Salvador, eres salvador
Salvador, you are a savior
El de ojitos dormilones, quiero abrazarte, quiero cuidarte
The one with sleepy eyes, I want to hold you, I want to care for you
Salvador, eres salvador
Savior, you are a savior
Nadie puede lastimarte, porque sueñas, porque cantas
No one can hurt you, because you dream, because you sing
Salvador, eres salvador
Savior, you are a savior
El de ojitos dormilones, quiero abrazarte, quiero cuidarte
The one with sleepy eyes, I want to hold you, I want to care for you
Salvador, eres salvador
Savior, you are a savior
Nadie puede lastimarte, porque sueñas, porque cantas
No one can hurt you, because you dream, because you sing
Porque tú...
Because you...
