Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me inspiran tus palabras y mi casa está en tu piel
Que tierno amor, mi devoción, viniste a ser mi religión
Mi dulce sentimiento de nada me arrepiento
Que vivan los momentos en tu boca y en tu cuerpo
Mujer
Valió la pena lo que era necesario para estar contigo amor
Las horas y la vida de tu lado nena
Están para vivirlas pero a tu manera
Enhorabuena, porque valió la pena
Valió la pena
Valió la pena lo que era necesario para estar contigo amor
Tú eres una bendición
Las horas y la vida de tu lado nena
Están para vivirlas pero a tu manera
Enhorabuena, porque valió la pena
Valió la pena
Te veo y me convenzo que tenías que llegar
Después de la tormenta aquí en tu pecho puedo anclar
Y ser más yo, de nuevo yo, y por bandera mi ilusión
Y mira si te quiero que por amor me entrego
Que vivan los momentos en tu boca y en tu cuerpo

He describes their love as tender, and she has become his religion. He has no regrets, and he wants to live every moment with her, experiencing her kisses and embraces. He sings that being with her was worth all the struggles they went through, and she is a true blessing in his life. He encourages her to live their hours and days together in her unique way, and he congratulates her on being such a central part of his life.
