[English]

I can imagine, but I don't know how it feels

That the world stops when you touch my skin

That the hands of the clock don't turn if you're not here

They say it's so soft, sweet, and flows like honey

How long will it take?

Or is it not for everyone?

Why would it hide from me?

Where is it?

I want to love and without thinking

Give it all away

I want my heart

To exchange its place

With someone special

I want to wake up

To find you

And I want to fall in love

...

I don't want to imagine, I want to know how it feels

That a kiss undresses my soul and makes my feet tingle

That their arms are my blanket on cold December days

And on summer days, see the sun rise together

How long will it take?

Or is it not for everyone?

Why would it hide from me?

Where is it?

I want to love and without thinking

Give it all away

I want my heart

To exchange its place

With someone special

I want to wake up

To find you

And I want to fall in love

...

I want to love and without thinking

Give it all away

I want my heart

To exchange its place

With someone special

I want to wake up

To find you

And I want to fall in love

I want to wake up

To find you

And I want to fall in love

I want to wake up

To find you

And I want to fall in love

...

[Spanish]

Me puedo imaginar, pero no sé cómo se siente

Que el mundo se detenga cuando acaricia mi piel

Que las manos del reloj no giren si no está presente

Dicen que es tan suave, dulce y fluye como miel

¿Cuánto tiempo tardará?

¿O no es para todos?

¿Por qué de mí se esconderá?

¿Dónde está?

Quiero amar y sin pensar

Entregarlo todo

Quiero que mi corazón

Intercambie su lugar

Con el de alguien especial

Quiero despertar

Te quiero encontrar

Y me quiero enamorar

No quiero imaginar, quiero saber cómo se siente

Que un beso me desnude el alma y me hormigueen los pies

Sus brazos sean mi abrigo en los fríos de diciembre

Y en los días de verano juntos ver el sol nacer

¿Cuánto tiempo tardará?

¿O no es para todos?

¿Por qué de mí se esconderá?

¿Dónde está?

Quiero amar y sin pensar

Entregarlo todo

Quiero que mi corazón

Intercambie su lugar

Con el de alguien especial

Quiero despertar

Te quiero encontrar

Y me quiero enamorar

Quiero amar y sin pensar

Entregarlo todo

Quiero que mi corazón

Intercambie su lugar

Con el de alguien especial

Quiero despertar

Te quiero encontrar

Y me quiero enamorar

Quiero despertar

Te quiero encontrar

Y me quiero enamorar

Quiero despertar

Te quiero encontrar

Y me quiero enamorar
