Sad Rumba (Cheer Up That Face)

Rumba Triste (Alegra Esa Cara)

Why do you sing sad rumbas when you're drunkPorque me cantas rumbas tristes cuando estás borracha
Why have you stayed locked up all night in your housePorque te has quedado encerrada toda la noche en tu casa
Why do you always remember to forget me, that you don't remember my facePorque te acuerdas siempre de olvidarme, que no recuerdas mi cara
That you have never served a first courseQue nunca has servido un primer plato
That you are no longer good for anythingQue ya no sirves para nada

And cheer up that face because if it doesn't rain and I don't have an umbrellaY alegra esa cara que si no llueve y no tengo paraguas
And go out to the street and cross the sidewalk, nothing happensY sal a la calle y cruza la acera que no pasa nada
Tell your pillow that I pay the ransomDile a tu almohada que yo pago el rescate
That you are no longer kidnappedQue ya no estás secuestrada
That you no longer live on Mars, that you no longer dreamQue ya no vives en Marte, que ya no sueñas
Of having wings, of having wingsCon tener alas, con tener alas

Tell me in my ear what you cried out loud yesterdayDime al oído, lo que ayer lloraste a gritos
If you want me to leave, then I'll goSi quieres que me vaya, pues yo me voy
You think you've won the prizeCrees que has ganado el premio
Among all those who have lost everythingEntre todos los que todo lo han perdido
And now you see, I stay with youY ahora ya ves, yo me quedo contigo

And cheer up that face because if it doesn't rain and I don't have an umbrellaY alegra esa cara que si no llueve y no tengo paraguas
And go out to the street and cross the sidewalk, nothing happensY sal a la calle y cruza la acera que no pasa nada
Tell your pillow that I pay the ransomDile a tu almohada que yo pago el rescate
That you are no longer kidnappedQue ya no estás secuestrada
That you no longer live on Mars, that you no longer dreamQue ya no vives en Marte, que ya no sueñas
Of having wings, of having wingsCon tener alas, con tener alas

Take me to heaven, with the air from your mouthLlévame al cielo, con el aire de tu boca
Like candy that melts a heart of pure iceDe caramelo que derrite un corazón de puro hielo
Don't pay attention to me when I get tangled in your hairNo me hagas caso, cuando me enredo en tu pelo
I always fail and end up asking for a little more timeSiempre fracaso y acabo pidiendo un poco más de tiempo

Cheer up that face because if it doesn't rain and I don't have an umbrellaAlegra esa cara que si no llueve y no tengo paraguas
Go out to the street and cross the sidewalk, nothing happensSal a la calle y cruza la acera que no pasa nada
Tell your pillow that I pay the ransomDile a tu almohada que yo pago el rescate
That you are no longer kidnappedQue ya no estás secuestrada
That you no longer live on Mars, that you no longer dreamQue ya no vives en Marte, que ya no sueñas
Of having wings, of having wings, oh of having wingsCon tener alas, con tener alas, ay con tener alas
