Solamente un día
Just one day
Dame de tu vida, un día no es nada
Give me a day of your life, a day is nothing
Solamente un día
Just one day
Y que vean tus ojos, yo roce tu cuerpo
And let your eyes see, I touched your body
Solamente un día
Just one day
Sin llevarnos nada nos daremos todo
Without taking anything, we will give everything
Solamente un día
Just one day
Un día de ti
A day of you
Te daré mis manos
I will give you my hands
Solamente eso
Just that
Que no cargo mucho
That I don't carry much
Y mis sentimientos
And my feelings
Me miro al espejo
I look at myself in the mirror
Todo va cambiando
Everything is changing
Pero esto es lo mismo
But this is the same
Tú me sabes todo
You know everything about me
Pero desde dentro
But from the inside
Por eso te pido
That's why I ask you
Un día de ti
For a day of you
Contesta mi deseo por un día de tu amor
Answer my wish for a day of your love
Necesito estar contigo, ver tu cara, oír tu voz
I need to be with you, see your face, hear your voice
Cada minuto, cada segundo
Every minute, every second
Cada hora que me quiera
Every hour that you love me
Yo te ofrezco mi corazón
I offer you my heart
Te daré mis manos
I will give you my hands
Solamente eso
Just that
Que no cargo mucho
I don't carry much
Y mis sentimientos
And my feelings
Me miro al espejo
I look at myself in the mirror
Todo va cambiando
Everything is changing
Pero esto es lo mismo
But this is the same
Tú no me sabes todo
You don't know everything about me
Pero desde dentro
But from within
Por eso te pido
That's why I'm asking you
Un día de ti
One day of you
Solamente un día
Just one day
Y yo roce tu cuerpo
And I'll touch your body
Nos daremos, todo
We'll give each other, everything
Contesta mi deseo por un día de tu amor
Answer my desire for a day of your love
Necesito estar contigo, ver tu cara, oir tu voz
I need to be with you, see your face, hear your voice
Cada minuto, cada segundo
Every minute, every second
Cada hora que me quieras
Every hour that you want me
Yo te ofrezco mi corazón
I offer you my heart
Solamente un día
Just one day
Dame de tu vida
Give me a piece of your life
Un solo momento
Just one moment
Solamente un día
Just one day
Y que vean tus ojos
And let your eyes see
Yo roce tu cuerpo
I touched your body
Solamente un día
Just one day
Sin llevarnos nada
Without taking anything with us
Nos daremos todo
We will give each other everything
Solamente un día
Just one day
Un día de ti
One day of you
Un día de ti
One day of you
Un día de ti
One day of you
Un día de ti
One day of you
