Sin Tiempo Para Bailar Lyrics in English Íñigo Quintero , Javi Chapela

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sin Tiempo Para Bailar by Íñigo Quintero from Spanish to English.
I woke up with nothing new on the front
Thoughts against the current
I always considered myself brave
Everything changes when you're in front of me
Spinning around over my head
I haven't seen the sunlight for a long time
With bitterness as my flag
I got tired of being so close to this addiction
You're immortal
Supernatural
You never come straight, you won't take off the disguise
With the sword stuck in, you say nothing to me
I'm running out of time
No time to dance
I've got no alibi, I erased the footprints
No time to dance
No time to dance
Now that only regret remains
I plan to become a better version
that managed to kill the sorrow
And that's why I dedicate this song to you
You're immortal
Supernatural
You never come straight, you won't take off the disguise
With the sword stuck in, you say nothing to me
I'm running out of time
No time to dance
I've got no alibi, I erased the footprints
No time to dance
No time to dance
And your kisses are now part of the memory
that I kept in that winter
that will never come back
And your kisses are now part of the memory
that I kept in that winter
that will never come back
With the sword stuck in, you say nothing to me
I'm running out of time
No time to dance
I've got no alibi, I erased the footprints
No time to dance
With the sword stuck in, you say nothing to me
I'm running out of time
No time to dance
I've got no alibi, I erased the footprints
No time to dance

SONG MEANING

Íñigo Quintero and Javi Chapela paint the picture of a heart caught in a silent battle. The narrator wakes up to another grey day, his thoughts swimming against the current. He once saw himself as brave, yet the presence of a mysterious lover — described as “inmortal” and “sobrenatural” — leaves him wounded and speechless, as if a sword were still lodged in his chest. The constant refrain “sin tiempo para bailar” (“no time to dance”) captures the weight of that emotional armor: there is so much hurt that even the simple joy of dancing feels out of reach.

Half confession, half declaration of independence, the song shifts from sorrow to resolve. The singer vows to become a better version of himself, one that can finally “kill the pain” and turn the lover’s memory into nothing more than kisses frozen in a winter that will never return. By erasing his footprints (“borré las pisadas”), he symbolically wipes the slate clean, ready to move forward. In the end, “Sin Tiempo Para Bailar” becomes both a lament and a liberation anthem — a reminder that even when time feels stolen by heartbreak, we can reclaim our rhythm and step back into the light.
