Y si tú la ves

My life and happiness
Tell her that my heart is cold

The only thing that I know is that I want with you
To stay with you until dawn

Dime si es verdad
Me dijeron que te estas casando

Esto te lo tengo que decir

They told me that you're getting married
You don't know that I'm suffering
I have to tell you this
