Letra: Que bonito que te va cuando te va bonito

Aside from being a great song, "Bonito" de Jarabe de Palo includes the following letra:
Que bonito que te va cuando te va bonito
Which of the 2 user supplied translations do think is most accurate?
- How beautiful everything goes for you when it’s going beautifully for you
- How beautiful things can be, when you let them be beautiful
Muchas gracias, mis amigos.

I like the 1st one because of "va" = "go" - lagartijaverde, May 12, 2010

The first one looks to be a closer word for word translation but I prefer the sentiment in the second. I was hoping someone would post on here that idiomatically the second was a better translation. sigh

Oh - but no, the second version is not correct. It does not mean the same thing, anyway. - Gekkosan, May 12, 2010

I agree with Birdland. If it makes sense to you in English, then the first option is great.
