Lyrics:

[Español]

[English]

Bésame, bésame mucho

Kiss me, kiss me a lot

Como si fuera esta noche la última vez

As if tonight were the last time

Bésame, bésame mucho

Kiss me, kiss me a lot

Que tengo miedo a tenerte y perderte después

Because I’m afraid of having you and losing you afterward

Bésame, bésame mucho

Kiss me, kiss me a lot

Como si fuera esta noche la ultima vez

As if tonight were the last time

Bésame, bésame mucho

Kiss me, kiss me a lot

Que tengo miedo a tener y perderte después

Because I’m afraid of having you and losing you afterward

Quiero tenerte muy cerca

I want to hold you very close

Mirarme en tus ojos, verte junto a mí

Look into your eyes, see you next to me

Piensa que tal vez mañana

Think that maybe tomorrow

Yo ya estaré lejos, muy lejos de ti

I’ll already be far away, very far from you

Bésame, bésame mucho

Kiss me, kiss me a lot

Como si fuera esta noche la última vez

As if tonight were the last time

Bésame, bésame mucho

Kiss me, kiss me a lot

Que tengo miedo a tenerte y perderte después

Because I’m afraid of having you and losing you afterward

Bésame, bésame mucho

Kiss me, kiss me a lot

Que tengo miedo a tenerte y perderte después

Because I’m afraid of having you and losing you afterward

Que tengo miedo a tenerte y perderte

Because I’m afraid of having you and losing you

Después

Later
