Un Zombie A La Intemperie Lyrics in English Alejandro Sanz

Un Zombie a la Intemperie paints the picture of a fearless dreamer who, after losing his partner, discovers that courage without love quickly turns into emptiness. He once felt like a heroic explorer, whispering to dragons, building wings, and leaping from balconies toward an endless blue sky. Yet the farther he flew from his lover, the more he confused madness for bravery. When reality hits, he is left exposed to the elements—no roof, no walls, only loneliness—realizing that without her he is just a zombie roaming in the open air.

The “dragon” is the mocking voice of doubt telling him he is nothing on his own, while the repeated line “sin ti soy sólo un zombie” underscores how love is his life force. Even after admitting his mistakes and unworthiness of a second chance, simply seeing her sparks a glimmer of happiness. Ultimately, the song is a bittersweet confession: bold adventures and grand gestures mean little if the heart that inspired them is gone. Alejandro Sanz blends poetic imagery with raw emotion, turning unrequited love into an anthem for anyone who has ever felt alive only in the presence of someone else.
