La Fuerza del Destino (The Force of Destiny)
by Mecano
We saw each other three or four times
Around the city
One night at the ‘Golden Bar’
I decided to attack
You told me nineteen
I didn’t want to doubt you
But there wasn’t much or little
I didn’t see anything to hold on to
And we got in the car
My friend, your friend, you, and I
I told you: “Baby, give me a kiss”
You replied: “No”
We got off to a bad start
And I that thought
That this was a good plan
That night was a disaster
I didn’t get any
“These girls are too prudish”
We went to sleep
But the force of destiny
Made us repeat
Two movies and a couple of concerts
And we began dating
I don’t know, that face so odd
One eye here and a tooth there
The body of a gypsy
A woman halfway done
Your heart was
What finally made me fall in love
And we got in the car
My friend, your friend, you, and I
I told you: “Baby, give me a kiss”
You replied: “No”
We got off to a bad start
And I that thought
That this was a good plan
And from then until now
The game of love
Had us playing three years
Then, it drew us apart
But the force of destiny
Made us repeat
And if it is going to be a cold winter
I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
I want to be next to you
