Singer: Reik
Hoy, con el dolor
Llega el fantasma de tu voz
Diciéndome
Ya no llores, amor
Today, with the pain
The ghost of your voice arrives
Telling me
Don’t cry anymore, my love
Soy, un eslabón
Quién se ha perdido entre tú y yo
Por favor
Sólo llévate el silencio que quedó
I am a link
That has been lost between us
Please
Just take with you the silence that’s left
Fui
Fuego por ti
Hoy sólo quedan las cenizas
Los restos de mí
I was
Fire for you
Today only the ashes remain
The remnants of me
Fui
Todo y sin ti
Desaparezco poco a poco y me perdí
Dentro de mí
I was
Everything, but without you
I disappear little by little and get lost
Within myself
Fue, frío el adiós
La despedida de los dos
Por favor
Sólo llévate el silencio que quedó
The goodbye was cold
The goodbye of both of us
Please
Just take with you the silence that remains
Fui
Fuego por ti
Hoy sólo quedan las cenizas
Los restos de mí
I was
Fire for you
Today only the ashes remain
The remnants of me
Fui
Todo y sin ti
Desaparezco poco a poco y me perdí
I was
Everything, but without you
I disappear little by little and get lost
A tu lado fui
Tan fuerte, nunca imaginé
Perderte, no
No, no, no
By your side, I was
So strong, I never imagined
Losing you, no
No, no, no
Fui
Fuego por ti
Hoy sólo quedan las cenizas
Los restos de mí
I was
Fire for you
Today only the ashes remain
The remnants of me
Fui
Todo y sin ti
Desaparezco poco a poco y me perdí
Dentro de mí
I was
Everything, but without you
I disappear little by little and get lost
Within myself
Uh, no
Adentro de mí
Uh, no
Inside me
