Chocolate Y Caramelos Lyrics in English David Rees

Home / Lyrics Translation / David Rees / Chocolate Y Caramelos

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Chocolate Y Caramelos by David Rees from Spanish to English.

Verse 1

Cold in the streets

There’s nobody anymore

The residents are already in their homes

Teachers, doctors, and singers

Snowmen stroll free

In December, the month of red and green

Look, the lights turn on

The most special night is coming

Tell me what that is still left to prepare

Chorus 1

Bring chocolate and champagne for whoever wants to dance

Bring candies for whoever yesterday could only cry

Some nougat fixes our heart

And some surprise, that grandma smiles

How am I going to sleep after this feast?

Chocolate and candies

Verse 2

A streetlamp lights the town

It has the shape of a candy cane

The kids want to eat it

With hat, gloves, scarf, and sweater

Impatient, they wait for the next day

Presents?

Or coal for those who lie

Chorus 2

Bring chocolate and champagne for whoever wants to dance

Bring candies for whoever yesterday could only cry

Maybe a cookie for the one at the chimney

With a glass of milk in case the reindeer drink

And some nougat fixes our heart

And some surprise, that grandma smiles

And don’t think about grandpa that can no longer come

Verse 3

Look for the one that has no gift

And split yours in two

If you didn’t have that luck either, give him a cotton hug

That Santa hasn’t forgotten you

He just teaches you another way to live

To forget what we don’t have

And to celebrate that we still have each other

Chorus 3

Bring chocolate and champagne for whoever wants to dance

Bring candies for whoever yesterday could only cry

Some marzipan that the end is coming

And another song, everybody in the living room

Next year bring the usual

Chocolate and candies

SONG MEANING

Feel the magic of a small Spanish town on Christmas Eve! David Rees paints a cozy winter scene where snowmen roam the empty streets, candy-cane streetlights glow, and everyone from teachers to singers has hurried indoors. The chorus invites us to bring chocolate for dancers and caramel for the ones who cried yesterday, reminding us that sweet treats and lively music can heal hearts as the most special night of the year begins.

The song is more than a list of holiday goodies. It is a gentle lesson in kindness: share your present with someone who has none, offer a marshmallow-soft hug if you have nothing else, and remember loved ones who cannot be there. “Chocolate y Caramelos” celebrates generosity, togetherness, and the simple joy of knowing we still have each other. By the final chorus, Rees leaves us smiling at the thought that next year we will gather again with the same essentials—chocolate, candy, and lots of love.
