Im trying to tranlate laura pausini's song entre tu y mil mares and i cant figure out what the phrase "ya toda mi vida eres tu" means the closest i can get is now you're all my life but the wording of the sentence confuses me. Any help would be appreciated

.. now all my life is you..

( you are all that matters to me)

Forget the grammar and listen to the words...

Ya no tengo miedo de ti,

Ya toda mi vida eres tu

Vivo, tu respiro que queda aquí

Que consumo día tras día

No puedo dividirme ya entre tu y mil mares

No puedo ahora estarme quieta y esperarte

Yes, you need the tu. - annierats, Jul 5, 2012
thanks for the answer, so in general "eres" can mean are or is? - ZeroXploit, Jul 5, 2012
It means: you are. You are my whole life, literally. It's just with songs, sometimes you have to make it sound better.. - annierats, Jul 6, 2012

"You're all over my life", not everything can be translated, sometimes it is necessary to interpret, not to give things a literal meaning

thanks, is there a gramatical reason that the eres tu is at the end of the phrase? - ZeroXploit, Jul 5, 2012
No real need, "eres" would suffice, if it were "es" you'd have to specify "él" or "ella" - diagonx, Jul 5, 2012
