Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Yo Te Amo by Fito Páez from Spanish to English.
Ella fue la espía de mi corazón
She was the spy of my heart
Eso fue lo que me mató de ella
That's what killed me about her
Ella puso fin, me dijo 'tu enemigo sos vos'
She put an end to it, she told me 'your enemy is you'
Y subimos a un globo buscando sólo las estrellas
And we climb into a balloon looking only for the stars
Voy a ser feliz
I will be happy
Debajo de sus sábanas
under your sheets
Le voy a pedir
I'm going to ask you
Que me haga un huequito en su cama
Let him make a little space for me in his bed
Va a decir que sí
will say yes
Porque tengo la pócima mágica
Because I have the magic potion
Las palabras clásicas
The classic words
Cuando nos despedimos en el ascensor
When we said goodbye in the elevator
Según su versión, ella no había hecho nada
According to her version, she had not done anything
Que todo fue mi culpa, que el bandido fui yo
That everything was my fault, that I was the bandit
Mientras me besaba agarradita a mi corbata
While he kissed me holding on to my tie
Me dejaste allí
you left me there
Me dejaste el pago
you left me the payment
Me clavaste ahí
you nailed me there
Sonriendo, muy loco y borracho
Smiling, very crazy and drunk
Y cuando llegaste a tu casa
And when you got home
Me escribiste 'qué plato' ('qué simpática', pensé)
You wrote to me 'what a dish' ('how nice', I thought)
Yo le respondí al toque
I responded to the touch
Voy a ser feliz
I will be happy
Debajo de sus sábanas
under your sheets
Le voy a pedir
I'm going to ask you
Que me haga un huequito en su cama
Let him make a little space for me in his bed
Va a decir que sí (va a decir que sí)
He's going to say yes (he's going to say yes)
Porque tengo la pócima clásica (las palabras)
Because I have the classic potion (the words)
Las palabras mágicas
The magic words
