The official “Es tu mirada” video is made like a small movie one song long. It is lovely. I almost get tears in my eyes each time I see it. Go for it, don’t miss the few chances lives give you. Spanish and English lyrics are shown side by side. At the end, video with Spanish lyrics added, and the official video.

Es tu mirada	It’s your look
Por qué me miran esos ojos	Why do these eyes look at me
Que me están buscando	What are they searching for
Y hacen blanco en mí	And become white in me
Suave que me estás matando, amor.	Softly, because you’re killing me, love.
Suave, que me vuelves loco, amor.	Softly, because you’re driving me crazy, love.
