Aire Lyrics in English David Otero

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Aire by David Otero from Spanish to English.
Water
I know that you are the water
Falling like nostalgia
Crystal-clear and transparent
You are water
Sometimes calm seas
And other times you flood my soul
I need a reason to be
The wind that pushes you and lifts your waves
The one that makes you rise up to the clouds alone
Before you rain again
Let me lift you
Before you change
Let me mix us in a dance
Because you are like the sea, I'm like the air
Air
You know that I'm the air
But I look at you and there's nobody
Why don't we play at flooding the valleys?
And stir up hurricanes so that nobody shuts us up
And at night light up your seas
Let the world stop if I find you alone
Let's find a way to stop the hours
Before you rain again
Let me lift you
Before you change
Let me mix us in a dance
Before you rain again
Let me lift you
Because you are like the sea
You know that I like to dance when I have you in front of me
You know that I prefer to wait for you
Because you are like the sea, I'm like the air
Before you rain again
Let me lift you
Before you change
Let me mix us in a dance
Before you rain again
Let me lift you
And before you change
Let me mix us in a dance
Because you are like the sea, I'm like the air

SONG MEANING

Aire is a vibrant love song where David Otero paints a poetic duet between two natural elements. She is the ever-changing water—sometimes calm seas, sometimes torrential rain—while he is the restless air that lifts, moves and shapes her waves. Through this imagery the singer celebrates a relationship built on balance and collaboration: air cannot be seen, water cannot fly, yet together they create tides, storms and refreshing rain. Otero invites his partner to dance before the next cloudburst, to blend their forces and “provoke hurricanes” so powerful that the world itself seems to pause.

The message is playful but profound. It reminds us that real connection means recognizing our differences, embracing them and turning them into shared motion. Just as wind gives water its sparkle and water makes wind visible, two people can amplify each other’s strengths when they move in sync. Aire is therefore both a romantic serenade and an anthem for fearless togetherness—an invitation to dance, rise and flood life with emotion before the moment slips away.
