Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Believe me

If I could have her

The way you can have her

I’d never hesitate, fight for her

Believe me

If it worries you that one day

We were lovers, maybe

Forget that already, it’s nonsense

Man to man

Take her just as she is

You can fill her with love

You’ll have no complaints

Man to man

Don’t let her be taken away

Love her and make her happy

She’s worth it

Believe me

If I could have her

The way you can have her

I’d never hesitate, fight for her

Believe me

If it worries you that one day

We were lovers, maybe

Forget that already, it’s nonsense

Man to man

Take her just as she is

You can fill her with love

You’ll have no complaints

Man to man

Don’t let her be taken away

Love her and make her happy

She’s worth it

Man to man

Take her just as she is

You can fill her with love

You’ll have no complaints

Man to man

Don’t let her be taken away

Love her and make her happy

She’s worth it

Man to man

Take her just as she is

You can fill her with love

Créeme

Si yo pudiera tenerla

Como la puedes tener

No dudaría jamás, lucha por ella

Créeme

Si te preocupa que un día

Fuimos amantes, quizás

Eso olvídalo ya, son tonterías

De hombre a hombre

Tómala tal como es

Puedes llenarla de amor

No tendrás quejas

De hombre a hombre

No te la dejes quitar

Ámala y hazla feliz

Vale la pena

Créeme

Si yo pudiera tenerla

Como la puedes tener

No dudaría jamás, lucha por ella

Créeme

Si te preocupa que un día

Fuimos amantes, quizás

Eso olvídalo ya, son tonterías

De hombre a hombre

Tómala tal como es

Puedes llenarla de amor

No tendrás quejas

De hombre a hombre

No te la dejes quitar

Ámala y hazla feliz

Vale la pena

De hombre a hombre

Tómala tal como es

Puedes llenarla de amor

No tendrás quejas

De hombre a hombre

No te la dejes quitar
