Querido Tommy [English translation]

Dear Tommy,

I'm writing you this letter,

I don't know if you really read these letters,

I'm writing you to ask you for something

for me, it's life or death,

don't think I'm exaggerating,

it's the truth

My name is Paco

and I'm writing from Santiago,

there's a girl

that I can't take off my mind

For those things, you're so eloquent

and she loves your songs,

by now, you can imagine where I'm going

When I'm with her, I have no words

and perhaps, you can help me

tell her that I'm dying for her [love]

in a more poetic way

being romantic

is no me at all

give me something so beautiful

that it will take her breath away

tell her that I love her

and that's all

I don't know if it will be enough

Mr. Tommy

I'm writing you again,

you haven't replied,

I thought you were a good guy,

maybe you're too busy,

but I'm desperate,

help me find a way

To tell her that I'm dying for her [love]

in a more poetic way

being romantic

is no me at all

give me something so beautiful

something no one ever has said to her,

tell her that I love her

and that's all

I don't know if it will be enough

My friend Paco,

Sorry for the delay,

I hope you're not mad

because I've used your story [in this song]

in love matters, I'm not an expert,

I don't know why you'd think that

that's far from the truth

Don't confuse idle talk with real feelings

metaphors, [?]solo pajas del intelecto [?]

if you're asking me what to tell your girl,

just tell her you're dying to have her [love],

I can't think of a more direct way

and romanticism it's just a game of chess,

when it's about feelings,

it's better to be straightforward,

tell her you love her and just that,

It will probably be enough.
