    Default Juan - Comprendi translation

    Hi guys, I'm trying to translate this song, this is the song
    http://il.youtube.com/watch?v=aL4uVWnpYno

    Spanish lyrics:
    Es necesario, que te pregunte,
    ¿Porqué me amas así?
    Es necesario una respuesta,
    A tanto amor para mí.

    Solo un segundo, quisiera ver lo que tu ves,
    Solo un segundo, sentir lo que sientes,
    Solo un segundo, amar como me amas...

    Y comprendí, lo que has hecho por mí,
    Cuando te necesité, tus manos yo pude ver.

    Y lo entendí, que tu me amaste así,
    Contigo quiero vivir y no alejarme de ti
    Sólo contigo Señor.

    My First Draft Translation:
    It's neccesary that I ask you,
    Why do you love me so?
    I need an answer
    To understand your love for me

    Just for a second, I want to see what you see
    Just for a second, I want to feel what you feel
    Just for second I want to love like you love me

    And now I see, everything you've done for me
    When I needed you, your hands reached out to me

    And I understand the love you have for me
    With you I want to live, nothing can take from this
    Only with you my Lord

    Any edits or help would be appreciated

    Thanks!

    I quite like it! My only suggestion is for the line:

    Contigo quiero vivir y no alejarme de ti

    With you I want to live, nothing can take from this

    With you I want to live ...and by your side I want to stay/ and I don't want to leave you/ go away from you

    or if you want to keep "take from", I'd suggest "nothing can take me away from you"
