Vacío Lyrics in English Manuel Turizo

Home / Lyrics Translation / Manuel Turizo / Vacío

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vacío by Manuel Turizo from Spanish to English.

A million-dollar house, seven cars, a mansion

And a chef that does what I tell him

There's lots of money here to spend

A penthouse in New York, an island and a plane

Tell me, what's that for if there are no friends

And nobody that comes to visit

Chasing a dream since I was born

That I've earned so much but it's more what I lost

Because there's a void, what I have doesn't feel like mine

A closet full of coats but none of them takes away the cold

And it's my fault because I was a kid that didn't understand

I always knew what I wanted but not the price that I'd pay

My number has changed now and even though I'm still me

I lost my childhood friends

Even if I want to get them back it's not the same anymore

Because I didn't want to be a doctor, lawyer or accountant

My family thought that I went crazy

But it's just that I didn't want to be like that

Chasing a dream since I was born

That I've earned so much but it's more what I lost

Because there's a void, what I have doesn't feel like mine

A closet full of coats but none of them takes away the cold

And it's my fault because I was a kid that didn't understand

I always knew what I wanted but not the price that I'd pay

Because there's a void, what I have doesn't feel like mine

A closet full of coats but none of them takes away the cold

It's my fault because I was a kid that didn't understand

I always knew what I wanted but not the price that I'd pay

SONG MEANING

Vacío by Colombian artist Manuel Turizo is a heartfelt confession about the hidden cost of fame and fortune. The singer lists his flashy possessions – million-dollar home, luxury cars, a New York penthouse, even his own chef – yet admits they feel pointless without true friends to share them with. He chased a dream from childhood and achieved global success, but along the way he lost childhood buddies, worried his family, and discovered that a closet packed with designer coats still cannot warm a lonely heart.

At its core, the song reminds us that having everything can still feel like having nothing. Turizo owns islands and airplanes, but inside there is a void: “what I have doesn’t feel like mine.” Listeners learn an important English idiom here – money can’t buy happiness – while also feeling the bittersweet honesty of an artist who always knew what he wanted but never guessed the price he would pay.
