Buenos Aires Lyrics in English Luis Fonsi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Buenos Aires by Luis Fonsi from Spanish to English.
Today I went out to the club with the guys
My intention was to kill this heartbreak
It didn't help at all because I called you drunk
What have you done to me?
It's not fair
Because, ay, how it hurts
When the love of your life doesn't love you
Where are you? Why don't you come?
Don't be bad anymore, look at how you've got me
This desperation made me write you this song
Don't take out the heart that you're stealing
Single, I have fun, but I miss my woman
Don't take out the heart that you're stealing
I wander through Recoleta with my heart in the suitcase
Because they don't respect anymore and want to steal it from you
I call her and she doesn't answer me, could it be because she's partying?
Like a 90th-minute goal when I was about to win
I'm no longer the one that touches you
We're rivals, River and Boca
All those things that you did with me you do with him
And that, ay, how it hurts
When the love of your life doesn't love you
Where are you? Why don't you come?
Don't be bad anymore, look at how you've got me
This desperation made me write you this song
Don't take out the heart that you're stealing
Single, I have fun, but I miss my woman
Don't take out the heart that you're stealing
Don't take out the heart that you're stealing
Don't take out the heart that you're stealing

SONG MEANING

Luis Fonsi’s “Buenos Aires” is a lively heartbreak anthem wrapped in a night-out vibe. The Puerto Rican star heads to the club with his friends, determined to drown his sorrows in music and drinks, yet one tipsy phone call to his ex undoes the entire plan. Over a catchy beat, Fonsi confesses how much it hurts when “the love of your life doesn’t love you back,” comparing their breakup to fierce Argentine soccer rivals River vs. Boca—two sides that can’t peacefully coexist. He strolls through Recoleta with his “heart in a suitcase,” worried someone else will steal it, and admits that although the single life can be fun, he still misses his woman.

The chorus pleads, “No saquen el corazón que están robando” (“Don’t take out the heart you’re stealing”), capturing that mix of jealousy and vulnerability when you see your ex moving on. In short, “Buenos Aires” turns late-night regrets, football metaphors, and city imagery into an irresistible pop track about realizing that no party can replace true love.
