Vamos A Darnos Un Tiempo Lyrics in English José José

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Vamos A Darnos Un Tiempo by José José from Spanish to English.
How hard it is
When things aren't going well
You are not happy
And that happens to me too
Because we've lost the freshness of love
The respect for us both
Arguing every moment without reason
How hard it is
Talking to you and you don't understand
Talking about the same thing and getting mad again
Why don't you let me go away for a while
Without telling me that right away
You're going to take your life if I leave
But first let me tell you
That I love you
That your love is the only thing
That I have
And I'm leaving your side because I don't
Want to lose it
What you and I need
Is only time
Time to be able to heal
Our wounds
Time to start over
Our lives
Time to know if you
Need me
Time to know if you love me
Or forget me
How hard it is
Talking to you and you don't understand
Talking about the same thing and getting mad again
Why don't you let me go away for a while
Without telling me that right away
You're going to take your life if I leave
But first let me tell you
That I love you
That your love is the only thing
That I have
If I'm leaving your side it's because I don't
Want to lose it
What you and I need
Is only time
Time to be able to heal
Our wounds
Time to start over
Our lives
Time to know if you
Need me
Time to know if you love me
Or forget me

SONG MEANING

Imagine pressing pause on a love story that has turned blurry. In “Vamos A Darnos Un Tiempo,” José José sings from the heart of a relationship that has lost its spark: arguments pop up for no reason, understanding feels out of reach, and both partners are tired of repeating the same fight. The Mexican crooner admits that the passion and respect they once cherished have faded, yet deep inside, the love is still very real.

His solution is simple but powerful: time. Rather than walking away forever, he asks for a temporary break to let emotions cool, heal old wounds, and figure out if they truly need each other. He reassures his partner—and himself—that this space is meant to protect their love, not destroy it. The song becomes a heartfelt plea for breathing room so both can decide whether to return stronger or gently let go. José José turns a painful crossroads into an honest conversation about self-reflection, patience, and the hope of rekindling what matters most.
