Inocencia Lyrics in English Luis Enrique

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Inocencia by Luis Enrique from Spanish to English.
Tanto amor entre nosotros dos
So much love between the two of us
Rumbo sin direccion de un largo viaje
A directionless course of a long journey
Una trampa del destino conocerte
A trap of destiny to meet you
Sabiendo que siempre seras mia sin tenerte
Knowing you'll always be mine without having you
Entre dos mundos se dividio
It divided between two worlds
Y la indecision de darme amante
And the indecision of giving myself as a lover
Intentaba separarme de ella entiendo
She tried to separate me from her, I understand
Pero nunca traicionandome con celos
But never betraying me with jealousy
Como amigo si como amantes no
As friends, yes; as lovers, no
El amor que vivi contigo me lo llevo yo
The love I lived with you, I'll take it with me
Como amigo si como amantes no
As friends, yes; as lovers, no
Yo sere para ti lo prohibido
I'll be the forbidden one for you
El que te enseño
The one who taught you
A sentir por primera vez
To feel for the first time
Y a querer pero no a tener
And to love but not to have
El amor que sueñas
The love you dream of
Entre dos mundos se dividio
It divided between two worlds
Y la indecision de darme amante
And the indecision of giving myself as a lover
Intentaba separarme de ella entiendo
She tried to separate me from her, I understand
Pero nunca traicionandome con celos
But never betraying me with jealousy
Como amigo si como amantes no
As friends, yes; as lovers, no
El amor que vivi contigo me lo llevo yo
The love I lived with you, I'll take it with me
Como amigo si como amantes no
As friends, yes; as lovers, no
Yo sere para ti lo prohibido
I'll be the forbidden one for you
El que te enseño

A sentir por primera vez
To feel for the first time
Y a querer pero no a tener

Yo te ame

As a friend
Sere tu mejor amigo pues

Ser tu amante no quiero

Ya no voy a retroceder
