[English]

Like a ray of light,

Breaking through the darkness

In my life, there was you

And everything began to change

You wrapped me in your warmth

And I knew I’d be cold

Without you

We started to dream

Of a world just for us two

A strange communion

Between the moon and the sun

Different, yet at the same time

Trapped by an endless passion

Without end

And sometimes, I think

That all of this will end badly

Flying so close to the sun

Can only burn me

It’s too late to escape

I carry you so deep inside

That I feel fire within me

Burning, blazing

It’s devouring my heart

I carry you so deep inside

That I feel fire within me

Burning, blazing

It’s devouring my heart, my heart

...

And sometimes, I think

That all of this will end badly

Flying so close to the sun

Can only burn me

It’s too late to escape

I carry you so deep inside

That I feel fire within me

Burning, blazing

It’s devouring my heart.

I carry you so deep inside

That I feel fire within me,

Burning, blazing

It’s devouring my heart.

I carry you so deep inside

That I feel fire within me,

Burning, blazing

It’s devouring my heart.

I carry you so deep inside

That I feel fire within me

Burning, blazing

It’s devouring my heart.

...

[Spanish]

Como un rayo de luz,

Entrando en la oscuridad

En mi vidantraste tú

Y todo empezó a cambiar

Me arropaste en tu calor

Y entendí que tendría frío

Sin tí

Comenzamos a soñar

Con un mundo entre los dos

Una extraña comunión

Entre la luna y el sol

Diferentes y a la vez

Atrapados por una pasión

Sin fin

Y a veces, yo pienso

Que todo esto acaba mal

Volar tan cerca del sol

Solo me puede quemar

Es tarde para escapar

Te llevo tan dentro

Que siento fuego en mi interior

Quemando, ardiendo

Va devorando el corazón

Te llevo tan dentro

Que siento fuego en mi interior

Quemando, ardiendo

Va devorando el corazón, el corazón

Y a veces yo pienso

Que todo esto acaba mal

Volar tan cerca del sol

Solo me puede quemar

Es tarde para escapar

Te llevo tan dentro

Que siento fuego en mi interior

Quemando,ardiendo

Va devorando el corazón.

Te llevo tan dentro

Que siento fuego en mi interior,

Quemando,ardiendo

Va devorando el corazón.

Te llevo tan dentro

Que siento fuego en mi interior,

Quemando, ardiendo

Va devorando el corazón.

Te llevo tan dentro

Que siento fuego en mi interior

Quemando, ardiendo

Va devorando el corazón.
