Carne Y Hueso Lyrics in English TINI

Home / Lyrics Translation / TINI / Carne Y Hueso

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Carne Y Hueso by TINI from Spanish to English.

Verse 1

If I could wake up and not think about you, I would do it

If I could say that I already forgot you, I would say it

If I could be stronger than you, the night wouldn't hurt

If I could be the villain of the story, I swear I would be

Chorus 1

But I'm only flesh and bone

And I keep loving you to the bone

And I'm dying

I'm dying for a kiss

That you no longer give to me

That you give to another, and it was from my lips

Why did you pay me like that?

Tell me how I end up

With what you left here

Playing strong to convince myself

That I already forgot about you

But I'm only flesh and bone

And I keep loving you to the bone

And I'm dying

I'm dying for a kiss

That you no longer give to me

But the night keeps touching me when you're not here

Verse 2

Baby, I feel you even though you're not here

I'm dying, and you know it, you know me, I love you

And even though you hurt me, I'm still here by your side

Your ghost is in my room

I tell him 'baby, I miss you so much

You were my friend

Sometimes I think there are mistakes that are meant to make you better

But this is not the case, remember when you cry for me that I won't come back

As much as it hurts, I won't come back

As much as I love you, I will love myself

And this will be the last time I will want a kiss that

That you no longer give to me

Chorus 2

That you give to another, and it was from my lips

Why did you pay me like that?

Tell me how I end up

With what you left here

Playing strong to convince myself

That I already forgot about you

But I'm only flesh and bone

And I keep loving you to the bone

And I'm dying

I'm dying

and I'm dying

I'm dying

SONG MEANING

Carne Y Hueso shows TINI wearing her heart right on the surface. She sings about the raw tug-of-war between wanting to forget a past love and still feeling that love "hasta los huesos" – all the way to the bones. Every line confesses a wish to be stronger, colder, or even the story’s "villain," yet she admits, "solo soy de carne y hueso" (I’m only flesh and bone). The result is a moving portrait of late-night loneliness: she feels his ghost in the room, remembers kisses now given to someone else, and acts tough just to convince herself she has moved on.

By the second half of the song, heartbreak turns into empowerment. TINI realizes that some mistakes help you grow, but this time she draws a line: "yo no volveré" (I won’t come back). Even as she declares her love is still alive, she chooses self-love over repeating the pain. The song is a bittersweet anthem for anyone caught between clinging to the past and stepping into a stronger future, wrapped in passionate vocals and an Argentine pop heartbeat.
