Trátame Suavemente Lyrics in English Soda Stereo

“Trátame Suavemente” is a tender plea wrapped in dreamy new-wave guitars. The narrator senses a hidden loneliness behind the other person’s eyes and realizes that their fears are tucked away where no one else can reach. Rather than trying to rip those fears out, he simply begs for gentle treatment. The chorus repeats like a mantra: Quiero que me trates suavemente (“I want you to treat me softly”), emphasizing how fragile love can feel when past wounds still linger.

At the same time, the song calls out the partner’s emotional mood-swings. Acting on impulse may seem exciting, yet it leaves the relationship feeling unstable, even “enfermo” (ill). Faced with that constant whirl, the singer refuses to relive the same painful dreams over and over. His solution is not grand heroics, just kindness. Soda Stereo turns this simple request into an atmospheric anthem, reminding us that a bit of softness can be the strongest glue in love.
