Lyrics & Translation

Dive into the golden age of the Latin romantic ballad with José José’s early masterpiece, "Sin Ella." This song is a perfect introduction to the rich, dramatic vocabulary of Spanish-language love songs and the precise, emotional vocal style that earned him the title "The Prince of Song." You'll learn expressions of deep longing and beautiful despair while experiencing a classic track from the 1960s Bossa Nova era.

[English]
I waited all night
For her to come
But she didn’t show
And now, sobbing, I truly know
What it’s like to go through
Another day without her
...
Another day without her
...
There’s no point in crying
If I can’t fill
The space she left
That’s empty now
Without her warmth...
How sad it is to spend
Another day without her
...
Another day without her
...
One day I met her, and with her I went
To a happy world
She gave me her love
A love I later cried for
Missing her, spending another day
Without her...
...
Love is so beautiful
It wraps us both
In its gentle warmth
But that warmth turns to pain, it breaks my heart if I spend
Another day without her
...
If I spend another day without her
I’ll die without her...
I’ll cry without her
I’ll die without her...
I’ll cry without her...
I’ll die without her...
...
