Love is so short and oblivion is so longEs tan corto el amor y tan largo el olvido
Sometimes, sometimes, I get up on my left footA veces, a veces, me levanto del pie izquierdo
Without looking back, everyone went their own way (this is our business)Sin mirar atrás, cada quien siguió su camino (esto es cosa nuestra)
Like the leaves and the wind, your memory comes and goesComo las hojas y el viento, viene y va tu recuerdo

And I bet, too, that the same thing happens to you, my black girlY apuesto, también, que lo mismo, mi negra, te pasa
How much 'Moon' contemplating your nakedness?¿Cuánta' Luna' contemplando tu desnudez?
Hearing your name is a feeling that never healsEscuchar tu nombre es una sensación que no se sana
And I keep healing, healingY yo sigo curándome, curándome

Why can't I have her?¿Por qué yo no puedo tenerla?
My God, help me, IDios mío, ayúdame, que yo

I go from bed to bed looking for her and I can't find her (this is our thing)Voy de cama en cama buscándola y no la encuentro (esto es cosa nuestra)
I'm still with my bandits until we run out of time (this is our business)Sigo con mis bandolero' hasta que se nos acabe el tiempo (esto es cosa nuestra)
I have you under surveillance, I am attentive to your actions (this is our business)A ustedes los tengo vigilao', de su' movida' estoy atento (esto es cosa nuestra)
Baby, give me more, and more money and we have a dealNena, dame más, y más dinero y tenemos un acuerdo

On the streets, there are eyes that cry tears of sorrowPor las calles, hay ojos que lloran lágrimas de pena
The difference is that some go inward, others go outwardLa diferencia es que unos hacia adentro, otro' hacia afuera
We have to talk about a couple of topics that we haven't talked about yetTenemo' que hablar un par de tema' que no hemo' habla'o
Let the next problem come, because yesterday's hasn't knocked me out yetQue llegue el siguiente problema, que el de ayer todavía no me ha tumba'o

Why can't I have her?¿Por qué yo no puedo tenerla?
My God, help me, IDios mío, ayúdame, que yo

I go from bed to bed looking for her and I can't find her (this is our thing)Voy de cama en cama buscándola y no la encuentro (esto es cosa nuestra)
I'm still with my bandits until we run out of time (this is our business)Sigo con mis bandolero' hasta que se nos acabe el tiempo (esto es cosa nuestra)
I have you under surveillance, I am attentive to your actions (this is our business)A ustedes los tengo vigilao', de su' movida' estoy atento (esto es cosa nuestra)
Baby, give me more, and more money and we have a dealNena, dame más, y más dinero y tenemos un acuerdo

This is our thing, I don't think they understand itEsto es cosa nuestra, no creo que lo entiendan
