With my eyes tightly closed
And my tongue already ready
To slip between your lips
With the idea of getting lost
So sure in your arms
That I don't even want to hurt you
Let the years go by
And someone could talk to you about me
And you want to know me, and don't avoid the end
Because eternal love only lasts
As long as two summers last
A light that erases your path
Eternal and lives in fire
And still feels extinguished
Like a sunset
When it goes fast but will come back
I don't handle commitment
And even though I know where I step
I always want to leave
It caught me by surprise
It stole my gaze
And I saw myself in his body
Sweetly trapped
And scents arrived that I didn't know
Curiosity came for me
And became mine, mine, mine, mine
Because eternal love only lasts
As long as two summers last
A light that erases your path
Eternal and lives in fire
And still feels extinguished
Like a sunset
When it goes fast but
We have a blank shot
With freedom
We have a bet
That won't be settled
An endless sun
That won't go out
A release of stars
Because eternal love only lasts
As long as two summers last
A light that erases your path
Eternal and lives in fire
And still feels extinguished
Like a sunset
When it goes fast
But will come back
We have a blank shot
With freedom
We have a bet
That won't be settled
An endless sun
That won't go out
A release of stars
You leave, but without her
We have a blank shot
With freedom
We have a bet
That won't be settled
An endless sun
That won't go out
Because it goes fast, but will come back

Did you like this lyrics translation?

Vanesa Martín opens this one with a kiss in close-up: "Con los ojos muy cerrados y la lengua ya dispuesta" (with my eyes shut tight and my tongue already willing). She is falling into someone, "tan segura entre tus brazos" (so sure of myself in your arms), and she is honest that she might not stay.

The chorus is the bittersweet hook: "el amor eterno dura solo lo que duran dos veranos" (eternal love only lasts as long as two summers). So the "endless summer" of the title is a bit of a joke on itself. Love is forever while it lasts, it burns, and then it fades "como un atardecer, cuando se va deprisa pero va a volver" (like a sunset, when it leaves quickly but will come back).

She also admits "No manejo el compromiso" (I don't handle commitment well) and "siempre me quiero ir" (I always want to leave). Learner tip: "me pilló por sorpresa" uses the very Spanish verb pillar, slang for "to catch", so it means "it caught me by surprise". And "tiro en blanco" is her twist on a shot in the dark: a free shot taken with nothing to lose.
