| La había amado como un demente desde aquel día
| He had loved her like a madman since that day
|
| En que quedaron en una vieja cafetería;
| In which they were in an old cafeteria;
|
| Al tropezarse con una silla no dijo nada
| Tripping over a chair, she said nothing.
|
| Él supo entonces que era una chica más bien callada
| He knew then that she was a rather quiet girl
|
| Aquella noche él la besó apasionadamente
| That night he kissed her passionately
|
| En Mambolero mientras bailaban entre la gente
| In Mambolero while they danced among the people
|
| Se preguntaba si aquel mareo sería el amor
| He wondered if that dizziness was love
|
| Y si lo era porqué sentía tanto dolor
| And if it was, why did he feel so much pain?
|
| Ella decía que no quería una historia seria
| She said that she didn't want a serious story
|
| Y él le pregunta si era posible amar a medias
| And he asks her if it was possible to love half
|
| Aunque sabía que la respuesta era que no
| Even though he knew the answer was no.
|
| La sola idea de estar sin ella le daba horror;
| The very idea of being without her horrified him;
|
| Y ahora se pasa cada segundo en el hospital
| And now she spends every second in the hospital
|
| Con otros locos que le preguntan que hicieron mal
| With other crazy people who ask what they did wrong
|
| Y él les contesta con la mirada que en el amor
| And he answers them with the look that in love
|
| No hay nada malo lo inevitable es el dolor
| There is nothing wrong, the inevitable is pain
|
| Y es que él debía de haberse entonces imaginado
| And it is that he must have imagined then
|
| Que es muy difícil vivir así tan enamorado
| That it is very difficult to live like this, so in love
|
| Es un veneno que te arrebata el corazón
| It's a poison that takes away your heart
|
| Pierdes el sueño y los papeles y la razón
| You lose sleep and papers and reason
|
| Si es que él tendría que haberse entonces imaginado
| If he should have imagined then
|
| Que es muy difícil vivir así tan enamorado
| That it is very difficult to live like this, so in love
|
| Es un veneno que te arrebata el corazón
| It's a poison that takes away your heart
|
| Pierdes el tiempo y los papeles y la razón
| You waste time and papers and reason
|
| Yo no sé lo que le dio
| I don't know what he gave her
|
| Qué es lo que le hizo a él
| What did she do to him?
|
| Que lo volvió loco de amor
| That he drove him crazy with love
|
| Estaba loco de amor | he was crazy in love |
