Besame, Besame Mucho,
Each time I cling to your kiss I hear music divine.
Besame Mucho,
Hold me my darling and say that you'll always be mine.
This joy is something new, my arms enfolding you, never knew this thrill before.
Whoever thought I'd be holding you close to me, whispering "It's you I adore."
Dearest one, if you should leave me,
Each little dream would take wing and my life would be through.
Besame Mucho,
Love me forever and make all my dreams come true.
