Te Necesito [English translation]

If it's the rain of all those days

that has increased its level

Already the music doesn't have the same

effect as it always used to have

Perhaps I have lived so much in so little and so short a time

that I don't even know what language I speak

nor that you keep watch inside of this burial

I feel that already I don't have the strength

to jump and grab the sun

And as hard as I try

I don't listen to even my own voice

Already I don't know if I have lived ten thousand days

Or one day ten thousand times

And I add you to my history wanting to exchange the losses for growths

I need you, I need you, my love

Wherever you are, I am lacking your warmth

I need you, I need you, my love

Because you are part of me

I need you here

And it's that I don't know how to live without you

I haven't learned how

And there I find loss

like a needle in a haystack

like moving sands I bury myself

in my solitude

Already I don't know if I have lived ten thousand days

Or one day ten thousand times

And I add you to my history wanting to exchange the losses for growths

I need you, I need you, my love

Wherever you are, I am lacking your warmth

I need you, I need you, my love

Because you are part of me

I need you here

And it's that I don't know how to live without you

I haven't learned how
