[English]

If our love

Fails again

You know it would be the worst

That could happen to us

The things we had

Weren't made in a moment

I didn't buy you

So I won't sell you

You, sadly you

Told me when I moved away

That love is no longer lethal

But I left dying

Still, I'm here

After a year I’ve realized that

If love's no longer deadly

...

I can't live without you

Hold me tight too

...

It doesn't matter if they see us

If you know it feels so good

Maybe you'll understand

That all the moments

Will be missed if we don’t live together

You, what are you hiding from me

Tú, qué me ocultas tú

If you have another love, say it here

How hard it is to confess

Well, I see you smiling

...

You won’t be able to lie

...

Maybe you were right

If love's no longer deadly

Something in me will die

If you leave me

Our story has a bad ending

That if love’s no longer deadly

Something in me will die

Uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh

Uhh

...

[Spanish]

Si acaso nuestro amor

De nuevo fracasara

Tú sabes que sería lo peor

Que nos pasara

Lo que hubo entre los dos

No se hizo en un momento

A ti no te compré

Por eso no te vendo

Tú, tristemente tú

Me dijiste cuando me alejé

Que de amor ya no se muere

Mas muriendo me marché

Pero estoy aquí

Tras un año he comprendido que

Si de amor ya no se muere

Yo sin ti no viviré

Abrázame también

No importa que nos vean

Si sabes que me hace tanto bien

Quizás comprendas

Que se han de aprovechar

Todos los minutos

Después nos faltarán si no vivimos juntos

Tú, qué me ocultas tú

Si otro amor tuvieras, dilo aquí

Cómo cuesta confesarlo

Pues te veo sonreír

No podrás mentir

Tú tenías la razón quizás

Si de amor ya no se muere

Algo en mí se morirá

Si me dejas tú

Nuestra historia tiene mal final

Que si de amor ya no se muere

Algo en mí se morirá

Uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh

Uh-uh-uh

Uhh
