"If We Were Lovers" is the English version of Estefan's hit Spanish single, "Con Los Años Que Me Quedan", released from her first Spanish album Mi Tierra.

Estefan's English singles "It's Too Late", "Cherchez La Femme", "Higher", "Cuba Libre", and "Don't Let This Moment End" were not included on the album. "Don't Let This Moment End" was initially included on the track listing, but was removed in favor of "Y-Tu-Conga".
