[English]

Let me

Or what are you waiting for?

That I start dancing when it

That you have to give it

Whatever he asks you?

Leave it!

Or do you want me to say "very well"

And I feel like waiting for you and seeing

If today is my day?

Love, I miss you, but

All mine,

all mine

No tricks, no complexes

No secrets, no spies

All mine,

all mine

To love you day and night

To love you night and day

All mine,

all mine

Let me!

or do you think I find it normal

that we have to make our love

to our measure?

Leave it!

Or what's happening?

That I must keep accepting crumbs

of love out of cowardice?

Love, I miss you but

All mine,

all mine

No tricks, no complexes

No secrets, no spies

All mine,

all mine

To love you day and night

To love you night and day

All mine,

all mine

No tricks, no complexes

No secrets, no spies

All mine,

all mine

To love you day and night

To love you night and day

All mine,

all mine

No tricks, no complexes

No secrets, no spies

All mine,

all mine

To love you day and night

To love you night and day

[Spanish]

Déjame

O ¿que esperas?

¿que empiece a bailar cuando se

Que le tienes que dar

lo que el te pida?

!Déjalo¡

¿O es que quieres que te diga "muy bien"

Y me siente a esperarte y a ver

Si es hoy mi día?

Amor tu me haces falta, pero

Toda mía,

toda mía

Sin trampas, sin complejos

Sin secretos, sin espías

Toda mía,

toda mía

Para amarte día y noche

Para amarte noche y día

Toda mía,

toda mía

¡Déjame!

¿o te piensas que encuentro normal

Que tengamos que hacer nuestro amor

A su medida?

¡Déjalo!

O ¿que pasa?

¿Que debo seguir aceptando migajas

De amor por Cobardía?

Amor, tu me haces falta pero

Toda mía,

toda mía

Sin trampas, sin complejos

Sin secretos, sin espías

Toda mía,

toda mía

Para amarte día y noche

Para amarte noche y día

Toda mía,

toda mía

Sin trampas, sin complejos

Sin secretos, sin espías

Toda mía,

toda mía

Para amarte día y noche

Para amarte noche y día

Toda mía,

toda mía

Sin trampas, sin complejos

Sin secretos, sin espías

Toda mía,

toda mía

Para amarte día y noche

Para amarte noche y día
