Lyrics

Español

Siento rabia, porque ha llegado el hastío, se fue metiendo en nuestro nido y en un descuido nos venció. Siento rabia por la impotencia en que vivo; este cariño muere por algo que lo hiere y no le encuentro salvación. Decime qué pasó entre nosotros, la vida no es la misma entre los dos. Tenemos por sonseras un enojo, ¿qué pasa que agoniza nuestro amor? Decime qué pasó entre nosotros, la frase está en los labios de los dos. Tal vez se esté arrullando en la nostalgia el corazón, por cosas de un ayer mejor. Siento rabia, por este amor que se muere. Nos preguntamos quién lo hiere los dos juramos: Yo no soy. Siento rabia, porque aunque estamos unidos nos vemos vacilantes, sin besos que nos canten la melodía del amor.

English · machine translation

I feel anger, because boredom has set in, it was getting into our nest and in an oversight it defeated us. I feel rage for the impotence in which I live; this affection dies because of something that hurts it and I can't find salvation for it. Tell me what happened between us, life is not the same between the two of us. We are angry at each other, What's wrong that our love is dying? Tell me what happened between us, the phrase is on the lips of both of us. Perhaps the heart is lulling itself in the nostalgia of the heart, for things of a better yesterday. I feel rage, for this love that is dying. We ask ourselves who is hurting it we both swear: I am not. I feel rage, because although we are united we see each other wavering, without kisses to sing us the melody of love.

“No match yet” means no filmed dance is tied to that version so far, not that nobody dances it. Dances whose music we have not identified are left out.
