Pero habia que intentarlo por si no te opone’but I had to try just in case you don’t object.
Y sobra decirte que siempre pienso en tiAnd it goes without saying that I always think of you,

Que me canse de tenerme que resistirThat I got tired of having to hold myself back,

Sin que conozca’ esta otra parte de miwithout you knowing this other side of me.
La de un amor que me parece que no tiene finThe side of a love that feels like it has no end.
Como no hay nada que perder me atrevo a decirteSince there’s nothing to lose, I dare to tell you
Que por ahora de lo que conozco fuistethat for now, out of all I know, you were

Toda la noche el alba la manana y tardeall night, through dawn, morning, and afternoon.
