Verse 1
Ella, ella es como el aire
She, she is like the air
Necesario para respirar
Needed to breathe
Pero se te escapa cuando tú lo abrazas
But it escapes you when you hug it
Ella, ella es como el agua
She, she is like water
Como el agua para beber
Like drinking water
Y es también la causa de esta sed extraña
And it is also the cause of this strange thirst
Ella, ella es como el viento
She, she is like the wind
Ella es del mismo material
She is of the same material
Del que son mis sueños
What are my dreams of
Chorus 1
Pero yo, yo no me despierto
But I, I don't wake up
Pero yo, yo no me despierto
But I, I don't wake up
Pero yo, yo no me despierto
But I, I don't wake up
Pero yo, yo no me despierto
But I, I don't wake up
