Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche la última vez
Bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo tenerte y perderte después

Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche la última vez
Ay, bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo tenerte y perderte después

Quiero tenerte muy cerca
Mirarme en tus ojos, verte junto a mí
Piensa que tal vez mañana
Ya estaré lejos, muy lejos de aquí

Bésame, bésame mucho
Como si fuera esta noche la última vez
Ay, bésame, bésame, bésame, bésame mucho
Que tengo miedo tenerte y perderte después





Besa, bésame, bésame
Bésame mucho
