Lyrics & Translation

[English]

When you love somebody

When you love somebody

I won't wait here forever

You know there's no turning back

We need to be together urgently

a centimeter away from you

I can't take it anymore

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

your mind gets clouded

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

you lose your breath

Girl, I want your body right beside my body

very close, you and I

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

you only want their warmth

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

I know well when, how, and where

I want to enter your heart

Your voice will trace my name

Tonight the sun will rise within you

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

your mind gets clouded

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

you lose your breath

Girl, I want your body right beside my body

very close, you and I

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

you only want their warmth

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Move, slowly give me your warmth

Save me and mix with me, love

Move, slowly give me your warmth

Save me and mix with me, love

Move, slowly give me your warmth

Save me and mix with me, love

[Spanish]

When you love somebody

When you love somebody

No esperaré aquí por siempre

Ya sabes que no hay vuelta atrás

Mezclarnos es cuestión urgente

a un centimetro de ti

No puedo mas

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

se te nubla la razón

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

falta la respiración

Girl, I want your body right beside my body

muy pegados tú y yo

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

sólo quieres su calor

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Ya sé bien cuándo, cómo y dónde

quiero entrar en tu corazón

Tu voz dibujará mi nombre

Esta noche saldrá el sol en tu interior

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

se te nubla la razón

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

falta la respiración

Girl, I want your body right beside my body

muy pegados tú y yo

When you love somebody, when you love somebody

sólo quieres su calor

Oh, oh, oh...

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Oh, oh, oh...

When you love somebody

Muevete, despacio dame tu calor

Salvame y mezclate conmigo amor

Muevete, despacio dame tu calor

Salvame y mezclate conmigo amor

Muevete, despacio dame tu calor

Salvame y mezclate conmigo amor
