While still very young he moved to Santo Domingo with his parents, and immediately felt attracted to the dominican music, mostly merengue.
His musical influences range from Johnny Ventura, Wilfrido Vargas, Fernando Villalona, Sergio Vargas and Juan Luis Guerra to Luis Miguel, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Julio Iglesias and Sting. Although Santacruz has cited that his biggest musical influence was his mother, who from an early age used to sing boleros to him and also used to make imaginary interviews to a young Daniel with a small tape recorder. His father, also a music lover, introduced him to classical music and to the 50's and 60's sound. The first musical notes are known from his maternal grandmother Ana Zulema Victoria who was a pianist and also a piano teacher.
If I Give You My Love

sufrimiento
Me duele que no estés aquí dándome ganas de vivir, acariciándome
los sueños
Yo sólo te puedo decir que has sido todo para mí, que eres la
dueña de mis sentimientos
Que ya no sé vivir sin tí, que me haces falta hasta morir, hoy
te confieso que me siento
Ando buscando perdón de rodillas, te pido que regreses a mí,
mi vida apiádate de mí
And If I give you my love
Baby no digas que no
No sabes cómo sufre un hombre enamorado que se muere por volver
a vivir, yo sólo vivo para tí
And If I give you my love
Baby no digas que no
Te lo suplica un corazón desesperado que respira solamente por tí
Te juro que no sé vivir si tu no estás aquí.
Mi boca sólo habla de tí, de tanto amor que descubrí por cada
ruta de tu cuerpo
But I know I need you here with me, I know I always wanna be
amarradito de tus besos
Mi corazón está desquiciado, mis sentimientos anestesiados
Sigo buscando tu amor de rodillas, te ofrezco cada espacio de
mí, mi vida apiádate de mí
And If I give you my love
Baby no digas que no
No sabes cómo sufre un hombre enamorado que se muere por volver a vivir, yo sólo vivo para tí
And If I give you my love
Baby no digas que no
Te lo suplica un corazón desesperado que respira solamente por tí
Te juro que no sé vivir si tu no estás aquí.
Me mata tu recuerdo (pero mi corazón)
Sólo me habla de tí
And If I give you my love
Baby no digas que no
No sabes cómo sufre un hombre enamorado que se muere por volver a vivir
And If I give you my love
Baby no digas que no
Te lo suplica un corazón desesperado que respira solamente por tí
Te juro que no sé vivir si tu no estás aquí.
The lyrics of Daniel Santacruz's song If I Give You My Love describe the pain and desperation of a man who is deeply in love with someone who has left him. The singer is unable to sleep or live without the person he loves, and he desperately wants them to return to him. He describes how he feels that the other person was everything to him and that he cannot live without them. He begs for their forgiveness and asks them to come back to him, saying that he would do anything to have them back in his life.
The chorus of the song repeats the message that the singer is willing to give everything he has, including his love and devotion, to the person he loves. He tells them that he cannot live without them and that he is desperate for their love and affection. The song is a powerful expression of the pain and emotional turmoil that can be caused by a failed relationship.
