Radio Elvis Lyrics in English Juanes

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Radio Elvis by Juanes from Spanish to English.
With your skin on my skin
And the dawn
I felt that I loved you so much
And we talked about the two of us
While Rolling Stones
Played on the alarm clock
Can't always get what you want
It's time to leave
And maybe I can't smile
But my guitar speaks for me
What's all this for
If you aren't here
We came like a cloud
That the breeze quickly carried away
I don't know if you are
Thinking about me
But now I tell you that
I only think of you
I'm on the tightrope
I go walking
Losing my balance
That I once knew
It's time to leave
And maybe I can't smile
But my guitar speaks for me
What's all this for
If you aren't here
We came like a cloud
That the breeze quickly carried away
I don't know if you are
Thinking about me
But now I tell you that
I only think of you
What's all this for
If you aren't here
We came like a cloud
That the breeze quickly carried away
I don't know if you are
Thinking about me
But now I tell you that
I only think of you
I only think of you

SONG MEANING

Picture this: dawn light filters through the curtains, two lovers lie wrapped in each other’s warmth, and a Rolling Stones anthem hums from the alarm clock. In that dreamy mix of soft skin and classic rock, Juanes’s Radio Elvis captures the rush of a love so intense it makes time feel suspended, yet urgently ticking toward goodbye.

The song is a nostalgic postcard to a fleeting romance. Juanes’s guitar becomes his voice when words fail, confessing that, even when life pulls the couple apart “like a cloud the breeze carried away,” his thoughts stay fixed on the one who left. Radio Elvis blends rock references with heartfelt Spanish lyrics to show that passion, music, and memory can keep love echoing long after the final note fades.
