La Primera Vez
Altos Cumbieros
The First Time
The first time, the first time
That my hands sweat, that my skin bristles
The first time, the first time
That someone steals my soul, that chains my feet
That I can't think about winning or losing
Just to see her again.
The first time I've flown without wings even if I could fall
That I've surrendered my souls, that I let myself be loved
It's because of that woman.
The first time I breathe her air, that I die of thirst
That I die of jealousy like I never thought, it's because of that woman, because of that woman.
The first time, the first time
That someone takes my soul, that I don't know what to do
The first time, the first time
That her name takes me from right to wrong
That I can't think about loving or losing
Just to see her again.
The first time I've flown without wings even if I could fall
That I've surrendered my souls, that I let myself be loved
It's because of that woman.
The first time I breathe her air, that I die of thirst
That I die of jealousy like I never thought, it's because of that woman.
