¿Cómo llegué a estar parado hoy aquí? No tengo idea
How did I end up standing here today? I have no idea
Es la suma de decisiones
It's the sum of decisions
Que no se aprenden en la escuela
That aren't learned in school
Ahora me pesa más el bulto porque trae muchas preguntas
Now the burden weighs more on me because it brings many questions
Pocas respuestas y tantas ganas de volver a abrir los ojos
Few answers and such a desire to open my eyes again
Y despertarme en el sillón de tus papás
And wake up on your parents' couch
El que algún día fue una suite para los dos
The one that one day was a suite for us two
Para reír, para soñar
To laugh, to dream
Para aprender a amar
To learn to love
Me dejaste solo aquí, sin nada
You left me alone here, with nothing
Como gato de madrugada
Like a cat at dawn
Por los tejados de la vida sin hallar una salida
Across life's rooftops without finding a way out
Y tú no sé dónde estarás
And I don't know where you are
O en los brazos de quién te dormirás
Or in whose arms you'll fall asleep
Me dejaste solo aquí, con todo
You left me alone here, with everything
Pero sin besos a tu modo
But without your kind of kisses
Hoy viendo al cielo me pregunto, si no me hace falta nada
Today looking at the sky I wonder, if I don't lack anything
¿Por qué me haces falta tú?
Why do I miss you?
O si algún día te haré falta yo
Or if someday you'll miss me
Me dejaste solo aquí, sin nada
You left me alone here, with nothing
Como gato de madrugada
Like a cat at dawn
Por los tejados de la vida sin hallar una salida
Across life's rooftops without finding a way out
Y tú no sé dónde estarás
And I don't know where you are
O en los brazos de quién te dormirás
Or in whose arms you'll fall asleep
Me dejaste solo aquí, con todo
You left me alone here, with everything
Pero sin besos a tu modo
But without your kind of kisses
Hoy viendo al cielo me pregunto, si no me hace falta nada
Today looking at the sky I wonder, if I don't lack anything
¿Por qué me haces falta tú?
Why do I miss you?
O si algún día te haré falta yo
Or if someday you'll miss me
Aunque tal vez ni deba preguntar
Though maybe I shouldn't even ask
Si ya no viene al caso hoy
If it's no longer relevant today

madrugada — early morning / dawn
Madrugada refers to the very early hours of the morning, typically from midnight to dawn. It's a more specific and evocative term than just "morning."
In the song, the phrase "gato de madrugada" (cat of dawn/early morning) paints a vivid picture of loneliness and aimlessness. The singer feels abandoned, wandering like a stray cat in the quiet, desolate hours before sunrise, searching for a way out of his emotional predicament. This word captures the melancholic and solitary mood of the song.
