Como En Un Drama Italiano Lyrics in English Belén Aguilera

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Como En Un Drama Italiano by Belén Aguilera from Spanish to English.
It seemed like in an Italian drama
As intense as summer love
A poison could never be healthy
Like a minor chord on piano
For him I had the faith of a Christian
But I ended up praying to a human
A poison could never be healthy
It seemed like in an Italian drama
I repeat the same profile, he brims with manliness
Valuable like ivory, his goddess turned me into a stand
Skin tough as a reptile
Pierces like a rifle, rains like in April
And I still don't know what hope it is that I keep
It sticks like a dart
And I still don't know how it is that I can forget him, pull him out of me
It seemed like in an Italian drama
As intense as summer love
A poison could never be healthy
Like a minor chord on piano
For him I had the faith of a Christian
But I ended up praying to a human
A poison could never be healthy
It seemed like in an Italian drama
I repeat the same profile, he brims with manliness
Valuable like ivory, his goddess turned me into a stand
Skin tough as a reptile
Pierces like a rifle, rains like in April
And I still don't know what hope it is that I keep
It sticks like a dart
And I still don't know how it is that I can forget him, pull him out of me
It seemed like in an Italian drama
As intense as summer love
A poison could never be healthy
Like a minor chord on piano
For him I had the faith of a Christian
But I ended up praying to a human
A poison could never be healthy
It seemed like in an Italian drama

SONG MEANING

Picture yourself in the front row of a vintage Italian melodrama: velvet curtains part, a lone piano sighs in minor chords, and Belén Aguilera steps into the spotlight. Como En Un Drama Italiano tells the story of a romance that burns as bright as a summer fling but stings like poison. The singer compares her lover to everything dramatic and dangerous: a bullet that pierces, rain that pours without mercy, even a venom that can never be healthy. She once believed in him with the devotion of a true believer, only to discover she had been praying to an ordinary, flawed human.

The song’s roller-coaster imagery captures that push-and-pull of irresistible attraction and inevitable heartbreak. Each verse circles back to the same magnetic “profile” — strong, masculine, almost mythic — showing how easy it is to repeat toxic patterns when desire clouds judgment. Aguilera’s vivid metaphors invite us to feel every thrill and bruise of loving someone who is thrillingly cinematic yet ultimately harmful, making this track a cautionary anthem for anyone who has ever fallen for the wrong star of their own personal drama.
