Cada Vez- verse two

Cada Vez- verse two

I'm trying to translate a song, but first I have to be able to hear it.

The song is Cada Vez by Ondina.

The song is here: Youtube

I got the lyrics online here: Musica.com

I'm working on the second verse, which the lyrics sheet says is:

Cada vez que yo me miro en tu cara Sale todo lo que hay en mi de bueno Nadie nunca querrá a anadie Como yo te quiero

That doesn't make sense to me. Listening to it, I think it is

Cada vez que yo me miro en tu cara Sale todo lo que hay en mi de bueno Nadie nunca quiera a nadie Como yo te quiero

And I would translate that:

Every time I look into your face The good in me leaves No one ever wanted anyone Because I love you.

Is that anywhere close? The pertinent line is about 40 seconds into the song. I appreciate your help.

Ok, this is what I heard after 1:16 minutes of the song:

  • Cada vez que yo me miro en tu cara veo en ti mi reflejo,
  • porque cuando yo me miro en tu cara, tu cara es un espejo.
  • Cada vez que yo me miro en tu cara, sale todo lo que en mí hay en mí de bueno.
  • Nadie nunca quiere a nadie como yo te quiero.

  • Cada vez que yo me miro en tu cara sobran nuestras palabras.

  • El silencio tira porque le toca y en mi boca se calla.
  • Cada vez que yo me miro en tu cara y la Luna se mira en el río
  • tu cara gitana brilla más si yo te mira.

When a Spanish word ends in vowel, like "a", and the next one beings with a vowel, like nadie", they both are normally pronounced as a single word ("anadie").

The difference between "quie...(re)" and "que...(rrá)" can be rather subtle, I give you that, but she never utters a sound as close and front as a Spanish "i", so "ie" can be dismissed. For English speakers, used to merge over 20 vowel sounds so much, this distinction is too vague, but for a Spanish speaker is a big one.

I am thinking that it goes like like this, every time I see your face it brings out the best in me, nobody ever loved anybody ,like I love you .or how I love you.
