Verse 1
You came out from the depths of the night
And you crossed my pale door
Your skin was trembling like a leaf
And you whispered something, what does it matter?
I told you, nothing more, damn luck
And I held your tiny hand
They had hurt you in your entire soul
And you came to me seeking peace
Chorus 1
Crazy, you played the trapeze artist without a net
And love blinds
And love is cruel
Don't jump, I warned you
Don't jump, but you see, it's the law of life
And to love is ultimately to fall
Verse 2
I dried you off again between my hands
And as I licked your fragile wounds
I held you close to me as much as I could
And I kissed your eyes unintentionally
I told you, nothing more, damn luck
And I held your tiny hand
They had hurt you in your entire soul
And you came to me seeking peace
Chorus 2
Crazy, you played the trapeze artist without a net
And love blinds
And love is cruel
Don't jump, I warned you
Don't jump, but you see, it's the law of life
And to love is ultimately to fall
Chorus 3
Crazy, you played the trapeze artist without a net
And love blinds
And love is cruel
Don't jump, I warned you
Don't jump, but you see, it's the law of life
And to love is ultimately to fall
And to love is ultimately to fall

SONG MEANING

“Trapecista” turns a late-night encounter into a high-flying love metaphor. Spain’s pop icon Enrique Iglesias describes a woman who slips into his world shaken, wounded, and desperate for calm. He takes her by the hand, dries her tears, and tries to patch up the invisible cuts left by a brutal romance. The night feels like a circus tent, and she is the aerialist perched on a wire, heart racing, ready to leap.

The chorus reveals the core message: love dazzles, love hurts, yet we keep climbing back up for another jump. Iglesias warns her, “No saltes”—“Don’t jump”—because passion often lacks a safety net, but he also admits that to love is ultimately to fall. The song is both a tender rescue and a bittersweet acceptance that risk is woven into every romance. With vivid imagery and soaring vocals, “Trapecista” reminds learners that in English or Spanish, love can make all of us feel like daredevils over the void.
