You, Only You (Tu' Solo Tu')

Selena · Other Songs - Selena

Look how I go on for our love
Drunk and impassioned, only for you love
Look how I go on, dear
Given to drunkeness and hoplessness
You, Only you
Have filled my life with sorrow
Opening a wound in my heart
You, Only you
Are the cause of all of my crying
Of my disallusionment and desperation

Only your fatal shadow, shadow of evil
Follows me everywhere so obstinately
And to try to forget you
I give myself up to drunkeness and hopelessness
You, Only you
Have filled my life with sorrow
Opening a wound in my heart
You, Only you
Are the cause of all of my crying
Of my disallusionment and hoplessness
