Y es que fueron, fueron tus abrazos que como sablazos me hicieron pedazos afiladas fueron tus miradas quedé destrozada y en llanto inundada. Roja y loca, la flama de tu boca me quemó, y apagarme me toca.
Your hugs Like sword slashes dismembered me Your looks where sharp I was left destroyed and flooded in tears red and crazy the flame from your mouth burned me and I must put it down
Tu llenas mis sentidos... como una noche en un bosque
Como las montañas en primavera...como un paseo en la lluvia
Como una tormenta en el desierto... como un océano soñoliento azul
Tu llenas mis sentidos... vuelva a llenarme de nuevo
You fill up my senses... like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime... like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert... like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses... come fill me again

Thanks to Marianne we got the words in Portuguese. First time I have ever been able to "connect" to that language - sounds great.
I don't really have a favorite song or whatever, I have more like a favorite of the day that i put on repeat a lot, and this happens to be it:
La claridad me dice ya voy, la sombra me mato mi voz, sin ella estoy muda, se enfria, se enfria, se enfria el calor...
I like the flow of the song. Thanks jeezzle, c'mon nobody listens to music here? I know we can come up with more than this!! Any song or genre is acceptable.

Oh beloved, come to me.. if you are here even a burning charcoal will become a snowball !

I dig my oar in the water...I hold your oar in mine...I think I have seen a light on the other side of the river....

Mikel already translated it though, and he took quite a few liberties I must say!

Well, this is not may favorite song of all time, but it has particular meaning for our family.
The song is Burn, Baby Burn (Disco Inferno) made famous by the Trammps in the movie "Saturday Night Fever". My brother-in-law plays the bass guitar. He along with a close family friend, have toured with the Trammps from the 1980's until the present day. We just saw them in concert in Atlantic City recently.
From the third verse:
Up above my head, I hear music everywhere...
Por encima mi cabeza oigo música en el aire -
