Yo pensé que el amor no existía
I thought love didn't exist
que de mi ya se había olvidado
that I had been forgotten
que la herida que llevo en el alma
that the wound I carry in my soul
no iba a sanar
would never heal
Que las cosas que hoy siento por ti
That the things I feel for you today
Nunca mas las podria sentir
I could never feel again
Que era un sueno imposible
That it was an impossible dream
Encontrarme con alguien asi
to meet someone like you
Yo crei que el amor era un mito
I believed love was a myth
Un tesoro perdido en el mar
A lost treasure in the sea
Que esta vida tan gris que llevaba
That this gray life I was leading
No iba cambiar
Wasn't going to change
Pero ahora que te tengo aqui
But now that I have you here
Me doy cuenta que nada es verdad
I realize that nothing is true
Que el amor cuando esta para uno
That love, when it's meant for you
No tarda en llegar
Doesn't take long to arrive
Llegaste a mi
You came into my life
Con tanta vida para dar
With so much life to give
Y descubri todo lo hermoso
And I discovered all the beauty
Que es amar
That it is to love
Llegaste a mi
You came to me
Con tanto amor para brindar
With so much love to give
Y comprendi
And I understood
Que valio la pena esperar por ti
That it was worth the wait for you
Con tu forma de mirar
With your way of looking
Y tu manera de querer
And your way of loving
Amor, llegaste a mi
Love, you came to me
Yo crei que el amor era un mito
I thought love was a myth
Un tesoro perdido en el mar
A treasure lost at sea
Que esta vida tan gris
In this gray life
Que llevaba no iba cambiar
What I carried was not going to change
Muchas veces me hecahaba a morir
Many times I thought I would die
Asechado por la soledad
Hounded by loneliness
Cuantas veces me vio la mañana
How many times did the morning see me
Llorar y llorar
Cry and cry
Llegaste a mi
You came to me

Y descubri todo lo hermoso
And I discovered all that's beautiful
