I want, I want that you tell me that you love me with all your heart
I want, I want that you give me a kiss and that you give me your love, please
I have, I have to have you and I'm dying without your warmth
I love you, I love you
I'm dying, I'm dying
If you're not here
I want, I want
That you're with me, with me
I want to be with you, with you
For the rest of my life
Together, together
We'll live happy, happy
And I'm gonna tell you, my love
That I love you with my soul
I want, I want that you tell me that you love me with all your heart
I want, I want that you give me a kiss and that you give me your love, please
I have, I have to have you and I'm dying without your warmth
I love you, I love you
I'm dying, I'm dying
If you're not here
I want, I want
That you're with me, with me
I want to be with you, with you
For the rest of my life
Together, together
We'll live happy, happy
And I'm gonna tell you, my love
That I love you with my soul
Kill me with your eyes

SONG MEANING

Get ready to feel the rush of first love! In Quiero, Mexican-American superstar Selena repeats the word quiero (“I want”) like a heartbeat, turning the song into an irresistible plea for affection. She begs her crush to say “I love you,” seal it with a kiss, and share a warmth so powerful that she “dies” without it. The upbeat cumbia-pop rhythm keeps things light and danceable, yet every line brims with sincerity.

Selena dreams big: life juntitos (together), eternal happiness, and a love felt “con el alma” (with the soul). The dramatic cry “Mátame con tus ojos” (“Kill me with your eyes”) shows how intense her desire is. At its core, the song celebrates the courage to voice what the heart longs for and the hope that love will be returned just as strongly.
