Lyrics:
Te robare tu corazon (I’ll steal your heart) And hide it away in the unknown.
Ten cuidado con que tu dices (Be careful what you say) Or I’ll tear your heart in pieces.
He said that he knew What he did not know He told me his mother was Navajo He promised the moon But it never showed And he called himself El Romance-0
He said he would go Where he would not go He told me he was born down in Mexico
He said he thought fast But reacted slow And he called himself El Romance-0 Yo hablo la verdad.
(I speak the truth) Mi palabra es tu libertad (my words are your freedom)
Y puedo ser tu mejor amigo. (and I can be your best friend) Nadie sabe porque
(No one knew why) Y tampoco a donde fue (or where he had gone)
Porque es un mentiroso. (only that he was a liar)
He said he’d always win But I think he lost
He covered up his sins At a mighty cost
He thought he was beloved
But he was below And he called himself El Romance-0 Un mentiroso, El Romance-O
