Traduction
Daniel está viajando a España esta noche
Puedo ver las luces rojas de la cola marcando el rumbo a España
Y puedo ver a Daniel despidiéndose
Oh Dios se parece a Daniel, deben ser las nubes en mis ojos

Dicen que España es muy bonito, nuca he estado allá

Y Daniel dice que es el mejor lugar que él ha visto en su vida
El debe saber, el ha estado allá lo suficiente
Oh como extraño a Daniel, Oh lo extraño mucho

Oh Daniel mi hermano tu eres mayor que yo

¿Sientes todavía el dolor de las cicatrices que no sanaran?
Tus ojos han muerto pero han visto más que yo
Daniel tu eres una estrella en el cielo

Oh Daniel mi hermano tu eres mayor que yo

¿Sientes todavía el dolor de las cicatrices que no sanaran?
Tus ojos han muerto pero han visto más que yo
Daniel tu eres una estrella en el cielo

Daniel está viajando a España esta noche

Y puedo ver las luces rojas de la cola marcando el rumbo a España
Y puedo ver a Daniel despidiéndose
Oh Dios se parece a Daniel, deben ser las nubes en mis ojos
Oh Dios se parece a Daniel deben ser las nubes en mis ojos
