[English]

Every morning when I wake up

I feel an anxiety in my soul

To hear your voice, to feel your kisses

Even though I want to forget you

I desire you so much that I can't take it anymore

To endure it like this, without your love (if you leave)

There will be no spark in my eyes (only if you leave)

I fall into an endless abyss, (uh-uh) yeah

Even though I want to hide it

No one could match

What you and I are

When we are body to body

With every night you give to me

And the way you give yourself until the end

You make me beg for your love (if you leave)

There will be no spark in my eyes (only if you leave)

I fall into an endless abyss, (uh-uh) yeah

If you leave, I'll have nothing left, nothing will be the same

If you leave, you leave me without your gaze, my life will end

If you leave, I'll have nothing left, nothing will be the same

...

If you leave, you leave me without your gaze, my life will end

If you leave, I'll have nothing left, without your kisses, (if you leave) he-he

No, no-no, no, no

I'm dying without your kisses

...

If you leave, I'll have nothing left, nothing will be the same

If you leave, you leave me without your gaze, my life will end

(If you leave, I'll have nothing left) and I'll die if you leave

...

[Spanish]

Cada mañana al despertar

Siento en el alma una ansiedad

De escuchar tu voz, de sentir tus besos

Aunque te quiera olvidar

Te deseo tanto que ya no puedo más

Resistir así, sin tu amor (si te vas)

No habrá aventura en mi mirar (solo si te vas)

Caigo al abismo sin final, (uh-uh) yei

Aunque lo quiera ocultar

Nadie podría igualar

Lo que somos tú y yo

Cuando es cuerpo a cuerpo

Con cada noche que me das

Y tu forma de entregarte hasta el final

Me haces suplicar por tu amor (si te vas)

No habrá aventura en mi mirar (solo si te vas)

Caigo al abismo sin final, (uh-uh) yei

Si te vas ya nada me quedará, ya nada será igual

Si te vas me dejas sin tu mirar, la vida se acabará

Si te vas ya nada me quedará, ya nada será igual

Si te vas me dejas sin tu mirar, la vida se acabará

Si te vas nada me quedará, sin tus besos, (si te vas) je-je

No, no-no, no, no

Me muero sin tus besos

Si te vas ya nada me quedará ya nada será igual

Si te vas me dejas sin tu mirar, la vida se acabará

(Si te vas nada me quedará) y me muero si te vas
