Desde Que Estamos Juntos

I was dressed like a Habanero
You said goodbye with your eyes
While a Romeo was playing
On a balcony in old Havana

There's nothing more dog-like than love
'Cause it bites before it barks
My heart was pounding so hard
You told me to come from the bar

And I said: Girl, let me buy you a mojito
You made it clear that it wasn't going that way
(Hey, it ain't going that way)
And that's when I asked the virgin
Of Charity of the Poor to intercede for me
(Oh, intercede for me)

Suddenly, you changed your expression
You started seeing me as charming, I told you: You're my stand
We were just two strangers and it's been ten years now

My pride was left in the bones
What the hell with you, you told me
That Romeo stopped playing
It was Silvio Rodríguez's turn

And on the back of a blue unicorn
You disappeared down the malecón
I made the sign of the cross
You left me no other choice

And I said: Girl, let me buy you a mojito
You made it clear that it wasn't going that way
(Hey, it ain't going that way)
And that's when I asked the virgin
Of Charity of the Poor to intercede for me
(Oh, intercede for me)

Suddenly, you changed your expression
You started seeing me as charming, I told you: You're my stand

Then we finally danced, I promised not to step on you
You were a hundred pounds of art and you started to heat me up
(You started to heat me up)
You drove me crazy, my love
Your chocolate lips invited me to sin
(Oh, invited me to sin)
And you told me: Not all of us are the same
And my illegal hands started to shake
We were just two strangers and it's been ten years now

Since we've been together
'Cause I came back to find you
I asked for your forgiveness, you made me kneel
Since we've been together
My heaven, the one from your mouth
And at five below zero, clothes are still in the way

(Melendi!)

Since we've been together
I’m dying for your freckles
I graduated on your legs and I have a scholarship on your skin

Since we've been together
I’m taking off my hat
'Cause from the burning peach like rum, my sweet January flower

(Since we've been together)

Hey, Cuba is Cuba and the rest is nonsense
Oh, with Cuban frequency, Melendi arrived in Havana

(Since we've been together)

Oh my God, a huge mess was made
Melendi with his flavor, who would have thought? Melendi!

(Since we've been together)

Come to Havana to live, my buddy, oh God
Fire's been lit for the rumba party
