Las luces de esta ciudad

I have knelt down and crawled to tell you
Sorry over and over again
And at the same time I tell you I can't
Promise not to do it again

I have walked these hurtful steps
Just to make myself laugh
And I have a strange feeling
That there is something more than surviving

And listen to me very well

No, don't tell me what to do because you know
I'll probably do the opposite
Don't take it so personally
No, no, no, oh oh oh

Forgive me if I can't make it to dinner
Or even for breakfast
I couldn't help but make love to
The lights of this city

And if I get lost, don't look for me too far
I'm sure I'm around
It's not that I'm hiding from my reflection
It's just that I don't want you to see me like this

And listen to me very well

No, don't tell me what to do because you know
I'll probably do the opposite
Don't take it so personally
No, no, no, oh oh oh oh

No, don't tell me what to do because you know
I'll probably do the opposite
I'm not so young, not so old
And I know when to give in
And it's not today

I have knelt down and crawled to tell you
Sorry over and over again
And at the same time I tell you I can't

No, don't tell me what to do because you know
I'll probably do the opposite
Don't take it so personally
No, no, no, oh oh oh oh

No, don't tell me what to do because you know
I'll probably do the opposite
I'm not so young, not so old
And I know when to give in
And it's not today and it's not today
