His start was well received by the Puerto Rican recording industry. Born in 1975 in Puerto Rico Cruz was the oldest of seven siblings. He lived his adolescent years in Paterson, New Jersey, in the United States, where he grew to love salsa music. His models were exponents of the Afro-Caribbean genre such as Héctor Lavoe and Frankie Ruiz. His musical career started by singing chorus for his father, Fonzy Cruz, who recorded three records. In 1996, the younger Cruz decided to move to Puerto Rico to be closer to his family and musical roots. By so doing, he entered the salsa scene, working for two years as a vocalist in Domingo Quiñones‘ orchestra.[1] At that time he took singing classes and studied piano as well.

In his 2nd CD as a soloist, Cruz hit the international scene with his album Imaginate. With the WEA Latina label, the production was helped by Sergio George who directed and arranged. In that album, Cruz was co- songwriter of “Y gritaré”, together with Guadalupe García and Sergio George.

Few people know that before becoming a singer he worked for five years as a boxer and became a professional in the 132 pound weight class. But the pull of music was stronger still, impelling him into a career as professional music artist. His latest release: Asi Soy featured the song Hoy es el Dia.

Charlie Cruz, who today divides his time between Puerto Rico and Tampa, grew up in the small town of Naguabo. His love of salsa began as a 10 year old, when he became a backup singer in the orchestra of his father, Fonzy Cruz. The more he was exposed to music, the more he loved it. As he gained stage experience and worked with established salsa hit makers, Cruz realized how much he truly loved the genre. His life changed drastically when he was invited to perform at a concert and share the stage with top acts like Gilberto Santa Rosa, Victor Manuelle and Tito Nieves. As a result of this performance, he was signed by Sir George Records. Under this label, he produced such hits as "Bombon de Azucar" and "Amarte es un problema." "Dejala que Baile," the first single off Mas de mi, features an upbeat, catchy flavor that will have every salsa fan swinging their hips on the dance floor.

Un Beso Tuyo
Charlie Cruz Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Besame con la mismas ganas de anoche,
pruebame que no fue casualidad, dejame
repetir esas emociones, quiero saber si todo
fue realidad.
Besame donde todos esten mirando
quiero que el mundo sepa de nuestro amor
calmame la ansiedad que me esta matando
quemame con tus labios el corazon.

Un beso tuyo es una carga de corriente
una explocion es un disparo que estremece
es mi mayor necesidad, mi prision mi libertad
Un beso tuyo es navegar sobre las nubes,
viajar a gran velocidad dentro de un tunel
es embriagarse de emocion

es sentir
que la pasion te sube, te sube ay te sube.

Besame en cada parque y en cada esquina

debajo de la luna o pleno sol
dejame convertirte en mi concentida
dejame deleitarme con tu sabor.

Un beso tuyo es una carga de corriente
una explocion es un disparo que estremece
es mi mayor necesidad

mi prision mi libertad
Un beso tuyo es navegar sobre las nubes,
viajar a gran velocidad dentro de un tunel
es embriagarse de emocion
es sentir que la pasion te sube.

(Besame con las mismas ganas de anoche)
Dejame sentirte
dejame besarte
deja que la gente hable y que hable.
(Besame con las mismas ganas de anoche)
Debajo de la luna, debajo de el sol
donde tu quieras te regalo mi corazon
(Besame con las mismas ganas de anoche)

Dime que no fue casualidad
que este amor es verdadero,
que tu me quieres
que yo te quiero
que nos queremos.
Diiiselo!!

(Besame)
Con las mismas ganas
(Besame)
Besame asi otra vez
(Besame)
Regalame un beso
(Besame)
Con sabor a miel
(Besame)

Si tu deseas los mismo
(Besame)
Te deseo yo tambien
(Besame)
Ayyy besame!!
(Besame)
Pero que rico es

Ay dejame besarte que no puedo aguantar
esas ganas que tengo de ti
te necesito para vivir
porque tu eres la razon
la razon de mi existencia
contigo lo tengo todo

las demas no me interezan.
(Besame con las mismas ganas de anoche
