She's taking it easy I'm taking it hard She's got it together I'm falling apart [Chorus] She's having a time now Out painting the town She's living it up now I'm living it down Every day I find She's still on my mind But I guess She don't ever think of me And I'd give all I own If she'd just come back home And forgive the fool I used to be Ella no me quiere No se donde esta Y tal vez masana A mi, volviera [Chorus]
