[English]

I can't help it

I can't stop thinking of you

And the nights are cold if you're not here

I can't understand

How haven't you realized

The way I think of you, it's not normal

But I'm afraid to think

That you might fall in love

And that you'll tell me to forget you

That it's hard to try

I want to see you smile

I want to see you next to me

I can't, I don't want to anymore

It's easy to hide my fears

I want to see you smile

I want to see you next to me

I can't, I don't want to anymore

It's not easy to accept that I don't have you

...

That I don't have you

Little by little, time passes

And you have many memories that won’t let you forget

That keep hurting you

But I promise you

Along with you, to fulfill your dreams and when you wake up

To fall in love with you again

I want to see you smile

I want to see you next to me

I can't, I don't want to anymore

It's easy to hide my fears

I want to see you smile

I want to see you next to me

I can't, I don't want to anymore

It's not easy to accept that I don't have you

That I don't have you

That I don't have you

...

I want to see you smile

Oh, no, oh, no, no!

I can't

I want to see you smile

I want to see you next to me

I can't, I don't want to anymore

It's not easy to accept that I don't have you

...

That I don't have you

It's not easy to accept that I don't have you

...

That I don't have you

That I don't have you

That I don't have you

...

[Spanish]

No lo puedo evitar

Yo no te dejo de pensar

Y las noches son frías si tú no estás

No lo puedo entender

Cómo no te has dado cuenta

Cómo te pienso, no es normal

Pero tengo miedo de pensar

Que no te vayas a enamorar

Y que me digas que te olvide

Que es complicado intentar

Quiero verte sonreír

Quiero verte junto a mí

No puedo, ya no quiero

Es fácil ocultar mis miedos

Quiero verte sonreír

Quiero verte junto a mí

No puedo, ya no quiero

No es fácil aceptar que no te tengo

Que no te tengo

Poco a poco pasa el tiempo

Y tienes muchos recuerdos que no te dejan olvidar

Que no dejan de lastimar

Pero yo te prometo

Junto a ti cumplir tus sueños y al despertar

Volverte a enamorar

Quiero verte sonreír

Quiero verte junto a mí

No puedo, ya no quiero

Es fácil ocultar mis miedos

Quiero verte sonreír

Quiero verte junto a mí

No puedo, ya no quiero

No es fácil aceptar que no te tengo

Que no te tengo

Que no te tengo

Quiero verte sonreír

¡Oh, no, oh, no, no!

No puedo

Quiero verte sonreír

Quiero verte junto a mí

No puedo, ya no quiero

No es fácil aceptar que no te tengo

Que no te tengo

No es fácil aceptar que no te tengo

Que no te tengo

Que no te tengo

Que no te tengo
