[English]

You are everything to me

And you always will be

You’re the center of my being

My heart is where you’ll stay

I feel like life is starting

Everything feels new with you

But if one day you were gone

There’d be no reason left to live

You are everything to me

And you always will be

You’re the center of my being

My heart is where you’ll stay

You sensed my coming near

You saved me from my pain

Here on earth, I’ve found my heaven

Another miracle from your heart

You are everything to me

And you always will be

You’re the center of my being

My heart is where you’ll stay

You are everything to me

And you always will be

...

[Spanish]

Tú eres todo para mí

Y para siempre lo serás

Eres el centro de mi ser

Mi corazón habitarás

Yo siento que la vida empieza

Que todo es nuevo junto a tí

Más si algún dia me faltaras

Ya no habría razón para vivir

Tú eres todo para mí

Y para siempre lo serás

Eres el centro de mi ser

Mi corazón habitarás

Tú presentiste mi llegada

Me rescataste del dolor

Aquí en la tierra tengo un cielo

Un milagro más de tu corazón

Tú eres todo para mí

Y para siempre lo serás

Eres el centro de mi ser

Mi corazón habitarás

Tú eres todo para mí

Y para siempre lo serás
