Rumba Salvaje Lyrics English Translation by Manuel Carrasco
Speak,
I give up what I am.
Take my weapons.
I never meant to hurt you
by talking in this never-ending story.
Ah, and now that I see things clearer,
that I know we’re night and day,
now that nothing outside compares.
I don’t forget you and you don’t forget me.
Now I’ll say you have no forgiveness,
and you’ll say you don’t want to keep being a lie.
We tried it, but there’s no way to pull apart.
We came unstitched, but we came back to fix it.
This is so strong, and nothing and no one can stop it.
Not you, not me.
Not you, not me.
Okay.
You’re not right, and I don’t have the answer.
We argue on the street and in the bars,
and this nameless passion between us.
Oh, and now that I see things clearer,
that I know we’re night and day,
now that nothing outside compares.
I don’t forget you and you don’t forget me.
Now I’ll say you have no forgiveness,
and you’ll say you don’t want to keep being a lie.
We tried it, but there’s no way to pull apart.
We came unstitched, but we came back to fix it.
This is so strong, and nothing and no one can stop it.
Not you, not me.
Not you, not me.
Why? Not you, not me, what’s the reason?
Sometimes good, sometimes everything’s wrong,
because not you, not me, what’s the reason?
We want poison.
Wait, I’ll be back, I don’t want freedom.
We tried it, but there’s no way to pull apart.
But we came back to fix it.
To fix it.
No, it’s so strong, and nothing and no one can stop it.
Not you, not me.
Not you, not me.
Not you, not me.
We tried it.
We tried it.
We tried it and we couldn’t.
We tried it.
We tried it.
We tried it and we couldn’t.
