[English]

Crying in the night, singing without you, I remember moments I long to relive

I miss your hands, the way that you walk, I can't find my way, I feel that you're gone!

I don't want the world to keep us apart, swear that you'll always be by my side

I don't want this fate or to see you go, I only ask you to look back!

Crying in the night, singing without you, I remember moments, so far from you...

If you come with me, time will heal the old wounds that forced us apart

I find you lost, you're drifting away, I only ask you to look back!

Tell me that you'll laugh with me again, tell me I can still cry on your chest

It's not so hard to dream once more, break down the wall that once drove us apart!

Let's go back to distant places where in times gone by, we lived together...

Let's go search for the lake, for it has not yet dried up...

Let's leave worldly pride behind, you know I'll always be right here by your side

Let's fight together against the time that separated us...

Tell me that you'll laugh with me again, tell me I can still cry on your chest

It's not so hard to dream once more, break down the wall that once drove us apart!

Let's go back to distant places where in times gone by, we lived together...

Let's go search for the lake, for it has not yet dried up...

Crying in the night, singing without you, I remember moments I long to relive

I don't want the world to keep us apart, swear that you'll always be by my side

I don't want this fate or to see you go, I only ask you to look back!

I laugh if you are happy, I cry if your end is sad

I bleed if I bleed for you... ... let's go that way, my friend!

ooh! ooh!

I feel that you're gone!

ooh! ooh!

[Spanish]

Llorando en la noche, cantando sin ti Recuerdo momentos que añoro vivir

Me faltan tus manos, tu paso al andar No encuentro el camino ¡siento que no estás!

No quiero que el mundo nos separe más Jura que a mi lado siempre vas a estar

No quiero el destino ni verte marchar ¡tan sólo te pido que mires atrás!

Llorando en la noche, cantando sin ti Recuerdo momentos, tan lejos de ti...

Si vienes conmigo el tiempo curará Las viejas heridas que nos hizo andar

Te encuentro perdido, sin sentido estás ¡tan sólo te pido que mires atrás!

Di que conmigo de nuevo reirás Di que en tu pecho aún puedo llorar

No es tan difícil volver a soñar ¡rompe ese muro que un día nos supo alejar!

Volvamos a sitios lejanos que en tiempos pasados Vivimos los dos...

Vayamos en busca del lago porque aún no secó...

Dejemos orgullos mundanos Sabes que arrimado siempre estaré yo

Luchemos juntos contra el tiempo Que nos separó...

Di que conmigo de nuevo reirás Di que en tu pecho aún puedo llorar

No es tan difícil volver a soñar ¡rompe ese muro que un día nos supo alejar!

Volvamos a sitios lejanos que en tiempos pasados Vivimos los dos...

Vayamos en busca del lago porque aún no secó...

Llorando en la noche, cantando sin ti Recuerdo momentos que añoro vivir

No quiero que el mundo nos separe más Jura que a mi lado siempre vas a estar

No quiero el destino ni verte marchar ¡tan sólo te pido que mires atrás!

Río si tú eres feliz Lloro si triste es tu fin

Sangro si sangro por ti... ... ¡vamos amigo hacia allí!

¡ooh! ¡ooh!

¡siento que no estás!

¡ooh! ¡ooh!

Key Grammar Structures

• Siento que no estás

  ➔ Subjunctive mood in subordinate clauses

  ➔ The verb "estás" is indicative, but often in similar emotional contexts, learners should master the shift to subjunctive if the trigger verb changes (e.g., "Espero que no "estés"").

• Recuerdo momentos que añoro vivir

  ➔ Relative clauses with direct object

  ➔ The relative pronoun "que" introduces the clause modifying "momentos", which is the object of "vivir".

• No quiero que el mundo nos separe más

  ➔ Subjunctive after expressions of desire/will

  ➔ The verb "separe" is in the present subjunctive because the main verb "quiero" expresses desire over another subject ("el mundo").

• Si vienes conmigo el tiempo curará

  ➔ First Conditional (Real condition)

  ➔ Structure: "Si" + present indicative ("vienes") + future indicative ("curará"), used for likely future events.

• Rompe ese muro que un día nos supo alejar

  ➔ Imperative mood

  ➔ The verb "rompe" is the affirmative imperative form (tú) used to give a command or strong request.

• Vayamos en busca del lago

  ➔ First-person plural imperative (Hortatory subjunctive)

  ➔ "Vayamos" is the nosotros form of the imperative, used to suggest a collective action.

  ➔ This structure emphasizes a factual or habitual state ("I bleed if I bleed for you").
