El Amigo

The Friend

El Amigo

From the bottom of my heart, I'm gladDe cora, me alegra
May your life no longer be blackQue ya tu vida no esté negra
That gave them color and they are much betterQue le puso color y están mucho mejor
It shows and they tell meSe te nota y me cuentan

It's no secret that you deserved more than what I gave youNo es secreto que tú merecías más de lo que te di
He was the one who won, I was the one who lostÉl fue el que ganó, yo fui el que perdí
And it frustrates meY me frustra
I don't like to talk about itHablar de eso no me gusta

I, on that subject, have no opinionYo, de ese tema, no opino
But, with the drinks, I tell youPero, ya con los tragos, les digo
Who treats her like a queenQue la trata como a una reina
But she treats him as a friendPero ella lo trata como amigo

And he looks fineY él se ve fino
Of those who get drunk on wineDe esos que se emborrachan con vino
But I, who know herPero yo, que la conozco a ella
He doesn't like it, it's not his styleNo le gusta, no es su estilo

And the truthY la verdad
Together, they don't look so badJuntos, no se ven tan mal
But it looked better with mePero se veía mejor conmigo

That friend might find the title of boyfriend a burdenAl amigo ese el titulo de novio puede que le pese
He may kiss her, but he doesn't kiss her like I kissed herPuede que la bese, pero no la besa como yo la besé
Sometimes I think she thinks about it, sometimes she says she's happy, but it doesn't seem like itA veces pienso que ella piensa en eso, a veces dice que es feliz, pero no parece
With him, she doesn't get wet, with me she belongs, eh-eh-ehCon él, ella no se humedece, conmigo es que ella pertenece, eh-eh-eh

I give it a couple of mo-n-thsYo le doy un par de mese-e-es
So that he comes back with mePa' que conmigo regrese
Not even if I pray, not even if I prayNi aunque ore, ni aunque rece
Not even though it offers a lotNi aunque es mucho lo que ofrece
She, with him, does not ageElla, con él, no envejece

She doesn't know where those points are that drive her crazyNo sabe dónde quedan esos puntos que la vuelven loca
He touches her body, but I am the one who touches her soulÉl le toca el cuerpo, pero soy yo el que el alma le toca
I ask you, friendsLes pido, de compas
Don't make me open my mouthQue no me hagan abrir la boca, que

I, on that subject, have no opinionYo, de ese tema, no opino
But, with the drinks, I tell youPero, ya con los tragos, les digo
Who treats her like a queenQue la trata como a una reina
But she treats him as a friendPero ella lo trata como amigo

And he looks fineY él se ve fino
Of those who get drunk on wineDe esos que se emborrachan con vino
But I, who know herPero yo, que la conozco a ella
He doesn't like it, it's not his styleNo le gusta, no es su estilo

And the truthY la verdad
Together, they don't look so badJuntos, no se ven tan mal
But it looked better with mePero se veía mejor conmigo
