I dont know how to live without your warmth
Tengo el corazón roto de amor
I have a heart broken from love
Vuelve, sin ti yo no sé respirar
Come back, without you I cant breathe
La vida se me va si no te tengo
Life goes if I dont have you
This is confusing
La vida = The life
se = it (se va: third person from pronominal verb "irse")
me = from me
va = go (se me va= se va de mí)
si = if
no = dont/no
te = to you
tengo = I have
(Good translation).
No hay quien ocupe tu lugar
There isnt anyone who can take your place
Me estoy muriendo solo
I am dying alone
Hoy se que sin ti no soy nada
Today I know that without you I'm nothing
Sin tus caricias no es igual
There's nothing like your petting
Vacía y triste tengo el alma
I have a sad and empty soul
Estoy perdido en la soledad
I am lost in my loneliness
why is lost past tense? Is he not still lost?
(The construction "estar + participio" expresses the result of the action: Ahora estoy cansado de correr).
No te olvida mi corazón
My heart doesn't forget you
No comprende lo que nos pasó
it (the heart) doesn't understand what happened to us
what does the lo here refer back to?
(This "lo que" can be replaced with "qué": "No comprende qué nos pasó", and refers to the troubles that ruin their relationship)
Amor
Love
Vuelve, sin ti yo no sé respirar
Come back, without you I cant breathe
La vida se me va si no te tengo
Life goes if I dont have you
No hay quien ocupe tu lugar
There isnt anyone who can take your place
Me estoy muriendo solo
I am dying alone
Solo
Alone
Solo
Alone
Dime mi amor qué nos pasó
Tell me my love what happened to us
Por qué lo nuestro terminó
What is nuestro here for?
(As I have said before "lo nuestro" is "what is ours", and here refers to their relationship)
