Dame Tu Amor (English Translation)
Selena · Other Songs - Selena
If you love me, tell me with a kiss
of love and of passion
I love you, and you're always on my mind
If you're not next to me, I die of sad lonliness
In my life, I never felt like this
But now, now that I have you here
We're going to be together always
living out the miracle that you're at my side
in my life
I never felt like this
But now, now that I have you here
You are the air, the moon, and the sun
Promise me that you'll always be here by my side
in my life
I love you, and you're always on my mind
If you're not next to me, I die of sad lonliness
