Con mi amor y tus recesos
With my love and your pauses
Tus delirios y accidentes
Your deliriums and accidents
Tu dolor y mis tropiezos
Your pain and my stumbles
Tus colirios mis pendientes
Your eye drops, my earrings
Con tu falda arremangada
With your skirt rolled up
Con mi angustia recurrente
With my recurring anguish
Con tu espalda en tres almohadas
With your back on three pillows
Y mi astucia haciendo un puente
And my cleverness making a bridge
Tu pezón amenazando
Your nipple threatening
Y mi boca haciendo fiesta
And my mouth throwing a party
Un colchón de contrabando
A smuggled mattress
Y la ropa haciendo siesta
And the clothes taking a nap
Mi almidón y tu eficacia
My starch and your efficiency
Tu chantaje y mi venganza
Your blackmail and my revenge
Mi sillón y tu acrobacia
My armchair and your acrobatics
Mi equipaje y tu esperanza
My baggage and your hope
Para bien o para mal, ya se escribió
For better or for worse, it’s already been written
Para bien o para mal, ya se archivó
For better or for worse, it’s already been filed away
Para bien o para mal, se nos fugó
For better or for worse, it slipped away from us
Con tu historia y mis antojos
With your story and my cravings
Con tu llave y mis cerrojos
With your key and my locks
Para bien o para mal
For better or for worse
Se terminó
It's over
Con tu amor tan disfrazado
With your love so disguised
Mis mentiras, tus inventos, oh-oh
My lies, your creations, oh-oh
Con tu odio enamorado
With your love turned hate
Y el reloj matando el tiempo
And the clock killing time
La pasión en decadencia
The passion in decline
La emoción en bancarrota
The emotion in bankruptcy
Sufrirá la descendencia
The descendants will suffer
Las infamias de tu boca
The infamies from your mouth
Para bien o para mal, ya se escribió

Para bien o para mal, se nos fugó
For better or for worse, it slipped away from us
Para bien o para mal, ya se escribió

Con tu historia y mis antojos
With your story and my cravings
Con tu llave y mis cerrojos
With your key and my locks
Para bien o para mal
For better or for worse
Se terminó, oh-oh
It's over, oh-oh
Se terminó
It's over
Para bien o para mal
For better or for worse
Para bien o para mal ya se escribió
For better or for worse, it's already been written
Con tu historia y mis antojos
With your story and my cravings
Con tu llave y mis cerrojos, oh-oh
