Yo bailo al son que me toca la vida
I dance to the rhythm that life plays for me
Soy medio loco y suicida
I'm half crazy and reckless
Guitarra al hombro y me lanzo al vacío
Guitar on my shoulder, I leap into the void
Sin paracaídas
Without a parachute
Tú bailas algo fino y tan distinto
You dance something elegant and so unique
Así quiso ser tu instinto
That's how your instinct wanted to be
Yo canto bajo un farol, oh, oh
I sing under a lantern, oh, oh
Tú en un bello recinto
You in a beautiful place
Pero decía el abuelo
But the grandfather used to say
Que dos diferencias
That two differences
Pueden irse formando
They can start to form
Dos grandes coincidencias
Two great coincidences
Baila conmigo
Dance with me
Tan solo baila conmigo
Just dance with me
Corazón con corazón
Heart to heart
Que nos sobra pulmón
That we have plenty of breath
Para toda la vida
For all of life
Baila conmigo
Dance with me
Tan solo baila conmigo
Just dance with me
Que no es la situación
Because it’s not the situation
Sino el corazón
But the heart
Quien decide el camino
Is what decides the path
Tú delicada como porcelana
You, delicate like porcelain
Con encajes en tu cama
With lace on your bed
Mi más grande rutina es hacer
My greatest routine is to do
Lo que me da la gana
Whatever I please
Para mí sigue siendo lo primero
For me, it's still my top priority
Ser un perro callejero
To be a stray dog
Pegarle duro a la Fender, oh, oh
Hitting hard on the Fender, oh, oh
Hasta abrir agujeros
Until I make holes
Pero decía el abuelo
But the grandfather used to say
Que dos diferencias
That two differences
Pueden irse formando
Can start to form
Dos grandes coincidencias
Two great coincidences
Baila conmigo
Dance with me
Tan solo baila conmigo
Just dance with me
Corazón con corazón
Heart to heart
Que nos sobra pulmón
That we have enough breath
Para toda la vida
For a lifetime
Baila conmigo
Dance with me
Tan solo baila conmigo
Just dance with me
Que no es la situación
It's not the situation
Sino el corazón
But the heart
Quien decide el camino
That decides the way
Baila conmigo
Dance with me
Tan solo baila conmigo
Just dance with me
Corazón con corazón
Heart to heart
Que nos sobra pulmón
That we have plenty of breath
Para toda la vida
For a lifetime
