lyrics

Love in the City

Well he’s my
On again, off again, meanwhile we hover
He’s more than a friend, but not quite a lover, uh-huh
Ohhh, yeahhh

And he says
I can’t do them boyfriend things, like
Go shoppin’ with you, and watch you every damn time you sing
Oh no no no no no

And I say
Get on up outta here, you’re in my personal space
Last night was great babe, but I don’t want to see your face
Oh no no no no no

Yeah he’s my
On again, off again, meanwhile we hover
He’s more than a friend, but not quite a lover, uh-huh
Ohhh, yeahhh
Ooohhh, ohhhh, yeahyeahyeahhh

And we say
Livin’ in the city, oh it makes me so confused
All these beautiful people and here I am,
Stuck with you!
Oh-hooo, whooooaa, whooooaa

But then that San Francisco wind starts blowin’ in my face, and
All I can think about is your warm embrace
Whoooooaa
Come on over here, baby
I’ll love you today
‘Cuz today
Is aaaaaaaalll weeeeee’ve got
Uh-huh

Yeah he’s my
On again, off again, meanwhile we hover
He’s more than a friend, but not quite a lover, uh-huh
Ohhh, yeahhh
Ooohhh, ohhhh, yeahyeahyeahyeahhhh


TRADUCCION INGLES-ESPANOL

Love in the City / Amor en la Ciudad

Pues, es mi
Amor a ratos, mientras vacilamos
Es más que un amigo
Pero ser amantes no alcanzamos, ah-ja
Wooooo-yeah

Y dice:
Las cosas de novio, yo no las puedo hacer,
Como irnos de compras
y verte cantar otra maldita vez
O no no no no no

Y digo:
Vete ya fulano, de mi espacio personal
Anoche fue genial
Pero ya tu cara me cae mal
O no no no no no

Pues, es mi
Amor a ratos, mientras vacilamos
Es más que un amigo
Pero ser amantes no alcanzamos, ah-ja
Wooooo-yeah
Wooooo, wooo, yeahyeahyeahhh

Y decimos:
Vivir en la ciudad, me pone tan confundido
Tanta gente bella y aquí estoy –
¡Clavado contigo!
Wo-jooo, wooooaa, wooooaa

Pero fuerte sopla el viento
De San Pancho en la cara
Y no puedo pensar en nada más
Que tu abrazo acogedora
Wooooa
Ven acá mi amorcito
Te quiero hoy
Porque hoy…
Es toooooooodo lo que hay
¡Ah-ja!

Pues, es mi
Amor a ratos, mientras vacilamos
Es más que un amigo
Pero ser amantes no alcanzamos, ah-ja
Woooa, yeahhh
Woooa, Woooooa, yeahyeahyeahyeahhhh
