[English]

[music]

[music] Who are you?

[music]

My memory has kept what the wind has

carried away, and I [music] am

stuck in those times when you

loved me, and with a great [music] radiance, I felt

your kisses. Tell me,

clear this doubt for me. Who is this

stranger who has taken over your being?

[music] Where is the crazy lover who

burned into my skin? Because you don't touch me

like that woman does anymore. Something isn't

right.

[music] Listen to my words.

Tonight I will ask the hard questions and I'll

put an end to the [music] impostor,

the usurper. [singing]

I demand [music] an interview with you.

I'm suspicious. I'm accusing my lady,

the bad imitator.

Tell me, I have [music] some questions.

Where was it, under [singing] the rain, that I

gave you that first kiss?

Tell me too, recount the

[singing][music] moment, the room

number, where I made you a woman.

Confirm to me what turns me on in [singing]

sex, what I love about your body.

Our first adventure.

I want details. [music]

The neck or the belly button, your

favorite spot, because I do know which one it is.

If [music][singing] you truly are the

original, prove it to me now.

Tonight I [music] will ask the

hard questions and I'll put an end to the

impostor,

the usurper.

I demand an interview with you. I'm suspicious.

I'm accusing my lady, [music][singing]

the bad imitator.

Tell me, I have some [music] questions.

Where was it, under [singing] the rain, that I

gave you that first kiss? Tell me too,

recount [music] the moment, [singing]

the room number, where I made you

a woman. Confirm to me what turns me on

[music] in sex, what I love about

your body. Our first adventure.

I want details. [music]

Your neck or your shoulder, your

favorite spot, because [music] I do know

[singing] which one it is.

And if you truly are the original, [music]

prove it to me [singing] now.

You were like this when I first met you.

Who

[music]

[singing]

is this imitator [singing] in

[music] her place today?

I miss where [singing][music] she

went, where I lost her.

Let my beloved return, because [music] you

are not you.

Mi memoria ha conservado lo que se ha

llevado el viento y yo [música] estoy

estancado en esos tiempos cuando tú me

tus besos. Dime,

extraña que se ha apoderado de tu ser?

meaba la piel? Porque ya tú no me tocas

Esta noche me hago el interrogante y le
