Todos los besos
All the kisses
Cada recuerdo que fuimos echando en el fuego
Every memory that we were throwing into the fire
Un día tal vez darán calor
One day maybe they will be hot
Cada lagrima, cada gota de sudor
Every tear, every drop of sweat
Que el tiempo fue evaporando
That time was evaporating
Sonara un silbato de vapor
A steam whistle will sound
Y más allá del espectro visible
And beyond the visible spectrum
Habremos sido el fuego y el combustible
We will have been the fire and the fuel
Tomo el dolor, tomo el punzón de los celos
I take the pain, I take the punch of jealousy
Lo dejo arder en la llama
I let it burn in the flame
Y un día tal vez saldrán de mí
And one day maybe they'll come out of me
Y esta canción que se disipa en el viento
And this song that dissipates in the wind
Como señales de humo
like smoke signals
Busca cielo en que la leas tú
Look for heaven in which you read it
Y en uno mas de los puntos posibles
And in one more of the possible points
Habremos sido el fuego y el combustible
We will have been the fire and the fuel
Habremos sido el fuego y el combustible
We will have been the fire and the fuel
Habremos sido el fuego
We will have been the fire
