Un Año Sin Lluvia Lyrics in English Selena Gomez & The Scene

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Un Año Sin Lluvia by Selena Gomez & The Scene from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Say what you feel when I think about you
Again and again
Every instant that you're not next to me
My world is upside down
I walk in a desert when you leave
I don't know if it's a mirage, I feel you so real
Babe
Chorus 1
I want to see you again
To quench my thirst
One day without you is like a year without seeing rain
If you escape again I won't survive
One day without you is like a year without seeing rain
Verse 2
Counting stars
I hear your voice in my mind
Do you hear mine?
My heart is suffering from loneliness
I'm in disorder
Verse 2
I walk on dry leaves if you're not here
In my life
Come back because I'll cry a flood for you
Babe
Chorus 2
I want to see you again, to quench my thirst
One day without you is like a year without seeing rain
If you escape again I won't survive
One day without you is like a year without seeing rain
Bridge
Come back here
Hug me
Bridge
I'm a desert without your love
Come back to me soon
Don't be like that
Bridge
Because one day without you is like a year without seeing rain
Chorus 3
I want to see you again, to quench my thirst
One day without you is like a year without seeing rain
If you escape again I won't survive
One day without you is like a year without seeing rain

SONG MEANING

“Un Año Sin Lluvia” paints love as the ultimate source of life-giving water. In this upbeat Spanish-language track, Selena Gomez imagines herself wandering a dry, endless desert every time her special someone walks away. Each day without that person feels as long and unbearable as a whole year with no rain: the sky stays empty, the earth cracks, and she grows desperately thirsty for even a drop of affection. The lyrics keep circling back to that powerful image—“un día sin ti es como un año sin ver llover”—to show just how intense real longing can be.

Yet the song is not just about sadness; it is also a plea for reunion and hope. Selena counts stars, hears her lover’s voice in her mind, and promises that a single embrace would instantly “calm her thirst.” This mix of vivid nature metaphors and heartfelt emotion makes the tune both romantic and dramatic, inviting listeners to feel the relief of cool rainfall and the joy of love returned.
