And here's the lyrics (English below the Spanish) from Jon Ander from Bilbao:
NO QUIERO ESCUCHAR
Hace tiempo que
ocultas la verdad
Te traiciona tu
tenue ingenuidad al hablar
¿A
quién tratas de engañar?
Vi dos sombras
saliendo de un portal
Seguí los
pasos, cómplice de la oscuridad
Dura realidad
Sentí morir al verla abrazándote
CORO:
No, no quiero escuchar
tu voz susurrar
que me has querido
Se cual es la
verdad, quise confiar
Y me has mentido
Ahora dices que
fué una confusión
Sólo
celos, fruto de mi imaginación
Partiste mi vida
en dos
Sentí morir al verla abrazándote
CORO
CORO
No quiero escuchar
Translation:
I DON'T WANT TO LISTEN
You've been
hiding the truth for a long time
Your tenous
naïveté while you're speaking betrays you
Who are you
trying to deceive?
I saw two
shadows going out of a streetdoor
I followed the
paces, accomplice of the darkness
Hard reality
I felt like dying when I saw her taking you in her arms
CHORUS:
No, I don't want
to listen
to your voice
whispering that you've loved me
I know wich the
truth is, I wanted to be trusting
and you have
lied to me
Now you say that
it was a confussion
Only jelousy,
fruit of my imagination
You split my
life into two
I felt like dying when I saw her taking you in her arms
CHORUS
CHORUS
I don't want to listen
