No Soy el Aire [English translation]

We wear ourselves out

Like bars of soap

Between our hands

We never give our best

Yet we grow tired

From giving love in dribs and drabs

Love, of all things! 1

I won't hold back now

Listen carefully, please

I am tired

It's not a choice to let off steam

I've already thought about it

Nobody's ever died from a goodbye's

Being cold

I am not the air

You will live on after I leave

And you'll find yourself breathing like before

I am not the air, I am not the air

I am not the air

Realize that I'm not essential

To try to get me back

Gets in the way

It's too late

For me to stay

I'm not the air...

I won't hold back now,

Listen carefully, please

I am tired

It's not a choice to let off steam

I've thought about it already

Nobody's ever died from a goodbye's

Being cold

I'm not the air

You will live on after I leave

And you'll see you're still breathing like before

I'm not the air, I'm not the air

I'm not the air

Realize that I'm not essential

To try to get me back

Gets in the way

It's too late now

For me to stay

I'm not the air

I'm not the air

Realize that I'm not essential

To try to get me back

Gets in the way

It's too late now

For me to stay

I'm not the air

I'm not the air
