Encore, otra vez, one more time
Traveling down the slowly road
Everyday it ain't been sunny
People try to tell me though
The say love is where you find it
Still somehow I missed the point
Then I turned my back on you
And baby girl I'm so sorry
Oh and it hurts me so bad
Oh no I can't let go
I would do it all again
I would cross the world for you
Even through the pouring rain
I would do it all again
Encore, otra vez, one more time
Encore, otra vez, one more time
Sometimes I get emotional
Baby when I think of you
You ain't trying to hear it though
After all I put you through
Tell me where the road turns
Tell me what is lesson learned
Baby ain't you missing me like
I've been missing you
Oh and it hurts me so bad
Oh no I can't let go
I would do it all again
I would cross the world for you
Even through the pouring rain
I would do it all again
And I swear I'll do you right this time
And I swear I'll make it better
No where I'd rather be
Then by your side again
Baby if I had a chance
I would do it all again
I would cross the world for you
Even through the pouring rain
I would do it all again
I would do it all again
I would cross the world for you
Even through the pouring rain
I would do it all again
Encore, otra vez, one more time
Encore, otra vez, one more time
