Lyrics of El Amar y el Querer - José José

El Amar y el Querer (original)

Casi todos sabes querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
Es que amar y querer no es igual
Amar es sufrir
Querer es gozar
El que ama pretende sentir
El que ama su vida la da
El que quiere pretende vivir
Y nunca sufrir, nunca sufrir
Coro
El que ama no puede pensar
Todo lo da, todo lo da
El que quiere pretender olvidar
Y nunca llorar, y nunca llorar
El querer pronto puede acabar
El amor no conoce final
Es que todos sabemos querer
Pero pocos sabemos amar
El amar es el cielo y la luz
El amar es total plenitud
Es el mar que no tiene final
Es la gloria y la paz, es la gloria y la paz
El querer es la carne y la flor
Es buscar el oscuro rinc

(translation)

Almost everyone knows how to love
But few know how to love
It is that loving and wanting is not the same
to love is to suffer
to love is to enjoy
The one who loves pretends to feel
He who loves his life gives it to him
The one who wants intends to live
And never suffer, never suffer
Chorus
He who loves cannot think
He gives everything, he gives everything
The one who wants to pretend to forget
And never cry, and never cry
The love can soon end
love knows no end
It is that we all know how to love
But few know how to love
Loving is the sky and the light
Loving is total fulfillment
It is the sea that has no end
It's glory and peace, it's glory and peace
Wanting is the flesh and the flower
It is looking for the dark corner
