Shakira & Manuel Turizo - Copa Vacía (English Translation) Lyrics

[Verse 1: Shakira]
See? Like this
At this pace, I can’t keep up
I don’t know what else to do
To get more from you
Why don’t you want it when I do?
You’re colder than January
I ask warmth and you give nothing but the cold shoulder, oh, oh

[Chorus: Shakira]
It’s been a while since I’ve been thirsty over you, I don’t know why
I am left wanting more, wishing to drink from an empty glass
It’s been a while since I’ve been thirsty over you, I don’t know why
I am left wanting more, wishing to drink from an empty glass, ah, ah, ah

[Verse 2: Shakira]
You’re always busy with too much business
It’d be good for you, love, a little bit of fun
You can chill here, on the couch, and pay attention to me
Oh, oh-oh-oh
No need to be a poet so you can sweeten my ear
Let go off that phone, usе your hands on me
I know you’re fine, but I am еven more fine
Oh

[Chorus: Shakira]
It’s been a while since I’ve been thirsty over you, I don’t know why
I am left wanting more, wishing to drink from an empty glass, ah
[Verse 3: Manuel Turizo, Manuel Turizo &Shakira]
As if I didn’t feel anything
Now you look at me so differently
And I go against everything
In the street looking for it
I need to fill this void in me
I’m not a handyman, but even if I try to fix things it doesn’t work
Trying to reanimate a heart that can’t come back
I don’t want to try with someone else

[Chorus: Manuel Turizo, Shakira, Both]
It’s been a while since I’ve been thirsty over you, I don’t know why
I am left wanting more, wishing to drink from an empty glass
It’s been a while since I’ve been thirsty over you, I don’t know why
I am left wanting more, wishing to drink from an empty glass, ah, ah, ah


[Bridge: Shakira, Manuel Turizo, Both]
Your kisses are like salty water
I drink but it doesn’t cool me
I wait for you and you disappoint me
And that’s not how it should work
But you don’t want it when I do
You’re colder than January
I warm you, and you’re always cold

[Chorus: Shakira, Manuel Turizo, Both]
It’s been a while since I’ve been thirsty over you, I don’t know why
I am left wanting more, wishing to drink from an empty glass
It’s been a while since I’ve been thirsty over you, I don’t know why
I am left wanting more, wishing to drink from an empty glass
, ah, ah, ah
[Outro: Shakira]
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Eh, eh
Eh, eh

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
