Poco a poco porque como el arte para amarte hay que saber
Little by little, because like art, to love you I've got to know
Poco a poco porque soy cobarde y al mirarte no acepté
Little by little, because I'm a coward and when I look at you, I didn't accept
Poco a poco ya se me hizo tarde y yo no te pienso perder
Little by little, it's already getting late and I don't plan to lose you
No te pienso perder
I don't plan to lose you
Y hoy no existe nadie más que tú
And today, there’s no one else but you
Ya sé que no hay nadie más que tú
I already know there's no one else but you
Que entre tanta gente solo tú
That among so many people, only you
Que el amor es testigo de una vida contigo
That love is the witness to a life with you
Poco a poco me fui perdiendo
Little by little, I was losing myself
Poco a poco lo fui entendiendo
Little by little, I was understanding it
Que tus ojos dijeron tanto y como un tonto lo ignoré
That your eyes said so much and like a fool, I ignored it
Poco a poco me fui encontrando
Little by little, I was finding myself
Y en tus brazos enloqueciendo
And in your arms, going crazy
Cuánto tiempo estuve buscando por el mundo a mi mujer
How long I spent searching the world for my woman
Poco a poco me enamoré
Little by little, I fell in love
Poco a poco me enamoré
Little by little, I fell in love
Mírame, si la luz se apaga solo siénteme
Look at me, if the light goes out, just feel me
Junta tu mano con la mía, solo tócame
Join your hand with mine, just touch me
Si la noche se hace fría, solo bésame
If the night gets cold, just kiss me
Tan solo bésame, mujer
Just kiss me, woman
Quiero perderme adentro de tu piel
I want to lose myself inside your skin
Pintarte en una luna de papel
Paint you on a paper moon
Tenerte tan cerquita me hace bien
Having you so close feels good
Mujer
Woman
Quiero perderme adentro de tu piel
I want to lose myself inside your skin
Pintarte en una luna de papel
Paint you on a paper moon
Tenerte tan cerquita me hace bien
Having you so close feels good
Y hoy no existe nadie más que tú
And today, there’s no one else but you
Ya sé que no hay nadie más que tú
I already know there's no one else but you
Que entre tanta gente solo tú
That among so many people, only you
Que el amor es testigo de una vida contigo
That love is the witness to a life with you
Poco a poco me fui perdiendo
Little by little, I was losing myself
Poco a poco lo fui entendiendo
Little by little, I was understanding it
Que tus ojos dijeron tanto y como un tonto lo ignoré
That your eyes said so much and like a fool, I ignored it
Poco a poco me fui encontrando
Little by little, I was finding myself
Y en tus brazos enloqueciendo
And in your arms, going crazy
Cuánto tiempo estuve buscando por el mundo a mi mujer
How long I spent searching the world for my woman
Poco a poco me enamoré
Little by little, I fell in love
Poco a poco me enamoré
Little by little, I fell in love
Poco a poco me enamoré, ohh
Little by little, I fell in love, ohh
Poco a poco me enamoré
Little by little, I fell in love
Poco a poco me enamoré
Little by little, I fell in love
Y poco a poco me enamoré
And little by little, I fell in love
