Vaivén Lyrics in English Alfredo Olivas

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vaivén by Alfredo Olivas from Spanish to English.
Cuando se puede y no llueve sobre mojado
When we can and it ain't raining on soaked ground
Cuando los moros en la costa no se ven
When the coast is clear and nobody's watching
Cuando calculo que las aguas se han calmado
When I figure the waters have calmed down
Es cuando escribo pa saber si es que estás bien
That's when I text to see if you're okay
Cuando he cumplido con mi rol de bien portado
When I've done my part of acting all well-behaved
Cuando ha parado te repito de llover
When the rain's stopped, yeah, actually stopped
Cuando el terreno ya se encuentra despejado
When the ground is already clear
Me hago a un costado para poderte leer
I step aside so I can read what you wrote
Eres mi bien y no me da miedo decirlo
You're my good thing and I ain't scared to say it
Aunque cuando lo digo le bajo a mi voz
Though I drop my voice when I say so
Y en el vaivén de lo que está y no permitido
And in the swing of what's allowed and what's not
Justo en el medio nos encontramos los dos
Right in the middle we find each other
En lo último que pienso antes de ir a dormirme
The last thing I think of before I fall asleep
Eres el sueño que más me gusta soñar
You're the dream I love dreaming the most
Un suspiro que dormido se me escapa
A sigh slips out of me while I'm asleep
Y lo primero que hago justo al despertar
And the first thing I do as soon as I wake
Me gusta cuando suena al calor de las copas
I love it when it plays in the heat of the drinks
Esa canción que tanto me recuerda a ti
That song that reminds me so much of you
La sensación de pedir un whisky en las rocas
The feel of ordering a whiskey on the rocks
Y me remonte al día en que te conocí
And it takes me back to the day I met you
Eres sin duda mi pecado favorito
You're no doubt my favorite sin
La travesura que a nadie le contaré
The mischief I'll tell nobody
El beso que indudablemente necesito
The kiss I sure need
Una sonrisa que se escapa sin querer
A smile that slips out without meaning to
Que viva el rock, que viva el jazz, Viva la cumbia
Long live rock, long live jazz, long live cumbia
Viva el tequila, el bacanora y el mezcal
Long live tequila, bacanora, and mezcal
Cuando tu lívido se junta con mi enjundia
When your libido hooks up with my fire
Es de rigor que nada puede salir mal
It's only right that nothing can go wrong
Upa
Whoa
Que viva lo de nosotros, chiquita
Long live what we've got, babe
