Por eso te quiero [English translation]

I, who always put love aside

And kept it hidden at the bottom of my soul.

I, who never acknowledged

The lust that attacked my back.

I, who always ignored it all; everything was OK

Whenever lust bit my entrails...

I spent my life piling my kisses next to my pillow!

I, who could go

For a very long time without being embraced.

I, who after drinking,

Became as cold as ice during sex,

Today I realize that my body was

Ready for you to arrive all along...

Now my skin comes up with things that embarrass me!

Chorus:

You kept me awake! You motivated me!

You made love to me until morning! You devoured me

And poisoned my blood...

My blood with your pleas:

That's why I love you!

You did with me more than is acceptable

And awoke all of my senses,

And you entrapped me, burning my whole being with your fire:

That's why I love you!

I love you... I love you!

And, if you're not here, nothing can comfort me...

I, who would laugh

At those people who cry out of jealousy.

I, who was so very prudish:

I watched over my own virtue like a sentinel!

Today I feel, whenever you make love to me,

That a raging fire runs through my veins...

For you, I'm capable of anything and I don't care at all!

Chorus:

You kept me awake! You motivated me!

You made love to me until morning! You devoured me

And poisoned my blood...

My blood with your pleas:

That's why I love you!

You did with me more than is acceptable

And awoke all of my senses,

And you entrapped me, burning my whole being with your fire:

That's why I love you!

I love you... I love you!

And, if you're not here, nothing can comfort me...

That's why I love you!

I love you... I love you!

Nothing can comfort me!

That's why I love you!

I love you... I love you!

And, if you're not here, nothing can comfort me...
