Esta sed que no sale en la foto
This thirst that doesn't show in the picture
Este amor que no tiene razón
This love that makes no sense
Si la quiero y veo que me equivoco
If I love her and see that I'm wrong
Y me tacha de loco y me cierra el telón
And she labels me crazy and closes the curtain
No me queda más que esta canción
I have nothing left but this song
Quizás no sea este el mejor momento
Perhaps this isn't the best moment
Pa' decirle estas cosas a usted
To tell you these things
Soy de agua un 70%
I'm 70% water
Y no tengo argumento pero es por usted
And I have no argument but it's for you
Que soy de agua y me muero de sed
That I'm made of water and I'm dying of thirst
Ria, baile, siga saltando sin mí
Laugh, dance, keep jumping without me
Mientras yo me agazapo en la esquina
While I crouch in the corner
Hurgando en la ruina de verla sin mí
Digging through the ruins of seeing her without me
Cante, grite, vivo y no entiendo por qué
Sing, shout, I'm alive and I don't understand why
Soy 70% de agua y me muero de sed
I'm 70% water and I'm dying of thirst
Donde entró el agua en el coco
Where the water entered my mind
Como entiendo un milagro al revés
How do I understand a miracle in reverse
Si adorarla se le hace tan poco
If worshiping her feels so little
Diga dónde coloco este amor pa' después
Tell me where to place this love for later
No hay respuestas pa' tantos porqués
There are no answers for so many whys
Ria, baile, siga saltando sin mí
Laugh, dance, keep jumping without me
Mientras yo me agazapo en la esquina
While I crouch in the corner
Hurgando en la ruina de verla sin mí
Digging through the ruins of seeing her without me
Cante, grite, vivo y no entiendo por qué
Sing, shout, I'm alive and I don't understand why
Soy 70% de agua y me muero de sed
I'm 70% water and I'm dying of thirst
Ria, baile, siga saltando sin mí
Laugh, dance, keep jumping without me
Mientras yo me agazapo en la esquina
While I crouch in the corner
Hurgando en la ruina de verla sin mí
Digging through the ruins of seeing her without me
Cante, grite, vivo y no entiendo por qué
Sing, shout, I'm alive and I don't understand why
Soy 70% de agua y me muero de sed
I'm 70% water and I'm dying of thirst
