Have this kiss forever
Enrique Iglesias and Whitney Houston Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Over and over, I look in your eyes
You were all I desire
You have captured me
I want to hold you
I want to be close to you
I never want to let go

I wish that this night would never end
I need to know

Could I hold you for a lifetime?
Could I look into your eyes?
Could I have this night to share this night together?
Could I hold you close beside me?
Could I hold you for all time?
Could I, could I have this kiss forever?
Could I (could I), could I have this kiss forever? (Forever, forever, forever)

Over and over I've dreamed of this night
Now you're here by my side
You are next to me
I want to hold you
And touch you and taste you
And make you want no one but me
I wish that this kiss could never end, no no
Oh, baby please

Could I hold you for a lifetime?
Could I look into your eyes?
Could I have this night to share this night together?
Could I hold you close beside me?
Could I hold you for all time?
Could I (could I) could I have this kiss forever?
Could I (could I), could I have this kiss forever? (Forever) and ever

I don't want any night to go by
Without you by my side
I just want all my days
Spent being next to you
Lived for just loving you
And baby, oh by the way

Could I hold you for a lifetime?
Could I look into your eyes?
Could I have this night to share this night together?
Could I hold you close beside me?
Could I hold you for all time?
Could I, could I, could I have this kiss forever?
Could I, could I, Could I have this kiss forever? Forever

(Could I have this kiss forever?
Could I have this kiss forever?
Could I have this kiss forever?)

Dame un beso para siempre (para siempre)

(Could I have this kiss forever?)

Dame un beso para siempre

(Could I have this kiss forever?) Para siempre





Could I have this kiss forever?
Could I have this kiss forever?
