English Lyrics
My house in BudapestMy, my hidden treasure chest
Golden grand piano
My beautiful Castillo
You
Ooh, you
Ooh, I'd leave it all
My acres of a land
That I've achieved
It may be hard for you to
Stop and believe
But for you
Ooh, you
Ooh, I'd leave it all
Oh, for you
Ooh, you
Ooh, I'd leave it all
And give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And baby if you hold me
Then all of this will go away
My many artifacts
The list goes on
If you just say the words
I'll, I'll up and run
Oh, to you
Ooh, you
Ooh, I'd leave it all
Oh, for you
Ooh, oh
Ooh, I'd leave it all
And give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
Baby if you hold me
Then all of this will go away
Give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And baby if you hold me
Then all of this will go away
A-ooh, a-ooh
My friends and family
They don't understand
They fear they'll lose so much
If you take my hand
But, for you
Ooh, you
Ooh, I'd lose it all
Oh, for you
Ooh, you
Ooh, I'd lose it all
And give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And baby if you hold me
Then all of this will go away
Give me one good reason
Why I should never make a change
And baby if you hold me
Then all of this will go away
My house in Budapest
My, my hidden treasure chest
Golden grand piano
My beautiful Castillo
You
Ooh, you
Ooh, I'd leave it all
Oh, for you
Ooh, you
Ooh, I'd leave it all
Spanish Lyrics
Mi casa en Budapest,mi escondido cofre del tesoro,
mi piano de cola dorado,
mi precioso castillo,
por ti, por ti,
lo dejaría todo.
Las acres de terreno
que he conseguido,
puede ser difícil para ti
pararte y creértelo,
pero por ti, por ti,
lo dejaría todo.
Pero por ti, por ti,
lo dejaría todo.
Dame una buena razón
por la que nunca debería cambiar,
y cariño, si tú me abrazas,
entonces todo esto desaparecerá.
Mis muchos artefactos,
la lista continúa
si solo dices las palabras,
me levantaré y correré,
oh, hacia ti, hacia ti,
lo dejaría todo.
Oh, hacia ti, hacia ti,
lo dejaría todo.
Dame una buena razón
por la que nunca debería cambiar,
y cariño, si tú me abrazas,
entonces todo esto desaparecerá.
Dame una buena razón
por la que nunca debería cambiar,
y cariño, si tú me abrazas,
entonces todo esto desaparecerá.
Mis familiares y amigos,
no lo entienden,
temen perder demasiado
si yo tomo tu mano,
pero por ti, por ti,
lo perdería todo,
pero por ti, por ti,
lo perdería todo.
Dame una buena razón
por la que nunca debería cambiar,
y cariño, si tú me abrazas,
entonces todo esto desaparecerá.
Dame una buena razón
por la que nunca debería cambiar,
y cariño, si tú me abrazas,
entonces todo esto desaparecerá.
Mi casa en Budapest,
mi escondido cofre del tesoro,
mi piano de cola dorado,
mi precioso castillo,
por ti, por ti,
lo dejaría todo,
por ti, por ti,
lo dejaría todo.
