Cuando Lyrics in English Ivy Queen

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Cuando by Ivy Queen from Spanish to English.
Cuando no importan las palabras
When words don't matter
Cuando no importan los amigos
When friends don't matter
Y cuando tú te encuentres solo
And when you find yourself alone
Y analices que todo ya lo habrás perdido
And realize that you've already lost everything
Cuando no haya nadie quien te escuche discutir
When there's no one to listen to you argue
Cuando en tu cama ya no puedas ni dormir
When you can't even sleep in your bed anymore
Que dando vueltas te parezca que es el fin
When it seems like the end as you toss and turn
Que no haya nadie que se acuerde ya de ti
When there's no one left to remember you
Cuando no tengas a quien darle una sonrisa
When you have no one to give a smile to
Cuando en tu cuerpo ya no haya una caricia
When there's no caress on your body
En las mañanas te levantes tan deprisa
In the mornings you wake up so quickly
Cuando tu sol se nuble y no sople la brisa
When your sun clouds over and the breeze doesn't blow
Cuando tú entiendas que el orgullo es el que habla sin parar
When you understand that pride is the one that never stops talking
Es el que jura la mujer vive de la necesidad
The one that swears women live out of necessity
Cuando despiertes de ese sueño y enfrentes la realidad
When you wake up from that dream and face reality
Te pasarán los año' en vano, por tú no saber amar
Years will pass you by in vain, because you don't know how to love
Lo que es amar, lo que es querer, lo es llorar
What loving is, what wanting is, what crying is
A una mujer, a una mujer
For a woman, for a woman
Cuando recuerdes la historia de Adán y Eva
When you remember the story of Adam and Eve
Que fue capaz de renunciar todo por ella
Who was willing to give up everything for her
Cuando te hablen de amores como el de Celia
When they talk to you about loves like Celia's
Que junto a Pedro llegó y tocó las estrellas
Who with Pedro reached and touched the stars
Y hasta pecar y morir solo por una pasión
And even sinned and died just for a passion
Que hasta su lado continuar y todo, porque eso es amor
To continue by their side and everything, because that's love
Cuando tú entiendas que el hombre es el que no usa la razón
When you understand that man is the one who doesn't use reason
Es el que usa la maldad y jamás usa el corazón
The one who uses evil and never uses the heart
Es el que habla y no escucha que no coge lucha
The one who talks and doesn't listen, who doesn't bother
Dice mujeres hay muchas
Says there are many women
Es que se olvidó, para amar solo son dos
He forgot, to love there are only two
Una arma gemela y yo, el amor igual que crece
A twin weapon and I, love that grows the same
Te marchita el corazón
Withers your heart
Cuando tú aprendas que perdiste lo hermoso de la vida
When you learn that you lost the beauty of life
Lo que se ama no se olvida, se te abrirá una herida
What you love is not forgotten, a wound will open
Y aprenderás lo que es querer, lo que es amar a una mujer
And you will learn what it means to want, what it means to love a woman
A una mujer, a una mujer, a una mujer
To a woman, to a woman, to a woman
