Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uhhhh, eyyyy, ay asi,

Te extraño tanto mi amor
Cuando lejos estoy de ti
Si no siento tu calor,
Y tu forma de entregarte a mi.

Tan feliz soy a tu lado,

Que no me canso de amarte asi
Estoy de ti enamorado,
Porque solo tu me enseñaste a vivir.

Amar como te amo, es ideal
Tu sabes eso bien corazon.
Amar como te amo, no es normal
Porque es algo especial nuestro amor.

Tu eres mi luz y mi paz,
Mi alegria, mi tentacion,
Todo en ti es felicidad,
Junto a ti es un paisaje el amor.

Tan feliz soy a tu lado,
Que no me canso de amarte asi
Estoy de ti enamorado,
Porque solo tu me enseñaste a vivir.

Nadie te va a querer igual que yo yeah,
Porque estoy enamorado,
Enamorado de ti, de ti, de ti, eyyy, eyyy.

Pa que lo sepas, oye amandote, amandote, eyyy, eyyyy
