Te Dejo Madrid [English translation]

Yes, it's time to hide

from the world the pain

under the skin

I know that I'll be fine

Cats like me

land on their feet

I don't want

to play with my luck for your sake

And I can't

keep on living like this

Soon I'll be

far, far away from here

Ay, I'm going again

I'm leaving you, Madrid

Your superficial routines

and the way you make me want to run away

I don't want cowards

that make me suffer

It's best that I say goodbye

to your anisette mouth

Yes, it's time to clean

the spots of honey

from the tablecloth

I never knew how to pretend

My lips feel like they're

dying of thirst

I don't want

to let everything hold me back

I understand

that I've started to become a hindrance

Soon I'll be

far, far away from you

Ay, I'm going again

I'm leaving you, Madrid

Your superficial routines

and the way you make me want to run away

I don't want cowards

that make me suffer

It's best that I say goodbye

to your anisette mouth

Ay, I'm going again

I'm leaving you, Madrid

Your superficial routines

and the way you make me want to run away

I don't want cowards

that make me suffer

It's best that I say goodbye

to your anisette mouth

Ay, I'm going again

I'm leaving you, Madrid

Your superficial routines

and the way you make me want to run away

I don't want cowards

that make me suffer

It's best that I say goodbye

to your anisette mouth

I'm leaving you, Madrid

Madrid

To your anisette mouth

To your anisette mouth
