- 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.
