[English]

It's two in the morning

When I write this letter

It feels more like a love poem

It's from someone who misses you

It's two in the morning

When I write this letter

It's from someone who longs to see you

Because I still love you

I thought that by leaving

I would forget you

But I was wrong, I was wrong

And instead of forgetting you, I adore you more each day

How strange love is

It's two in the morning

When I write this letter

The distance has helped me

At last, I've understood

That I love you

Because the one writing to you

Is someone who misses you

Because the one writing to you

Is someone who misses you

...

[Spanish]

Son las dos de la mañana

Cuando escribo esta carta

Parece más un poema de amor

Es de alguien que te extraña

Son las dos de la mañana

Cuando escribo esta carta

Es de alguien que desea verte

Pues te quiere todavía

Pensé que al alejarme

Yo te olvidaría

Pero me equivoqué, me equivoqué

Y en vez de olvidarte, te adoro cada dia

Que extraño es el amor

Son las dos de la mañana

Cuando escribo esta carta

La ausencia me ha servido

Al fin he comprendido

Que te quiero

Pues quien te escribe

Es alguien que te extraña

Pues quien te escribe

Es alguien que te extraña
