No digas no
Don't say no
Que te conozco y sé cómo piensas
Because I know you and I know how you think
No digas no
Don't say no
Porque ya no
Because not anymore
Desde hace tiempo de amor no me hablas
For a long time now you haven't talked to me about love
Usando el tiempo futuro, ya no
Using the future tense, not anymore
Ya no sirve decirnos de nuevo: "te quiero amor"
It no longer serves to say to each other again: 'I love you, my love'
Porque tu sonreír
Because your smile
Cada mañana, ya no es para mí
Every morning, is no longer for me
Porque no tengo, ya, nada de ti
Because I no longer have anything of you
Cuando se ama, el final se presiente
When you love, the end is sensed
Se nota un frío, un vacío tan triste
A coldness is felt, such a sad emptiness
Como en un film se adivina la escena
Like in a film, the scene is guessed
Cuando se va, oh-no
When it leaves, oh-no
Se sabe cuando la historia concluye
You know when the story concludes
Si con excusas, mis ojos rehúyes
If with excuses, you evade my eyes
Por eso, dime que me amas
That's why, tell me you love me
Y ya desde mañana
And starting tomorrow
Nunca más
Never again
Uh, woh-oh
Nunca más
Never again
No puede ser
It can't be
Disimular y negar la evidencia
To hide and deny the obvious
Como haces tú cuando intentas fingir
Like you do when you try to pretend
Sin tener el valor de decirme: "¿qué pasa aquí?", uh-uh
Without having the courage to say to me: 'What's going on here?', uh-uh
Será dentro de mí
It will be inside me
Como una noche de invierno porque
Like a winter night because
Quizás, ya, desde hoy no te veré
Perhaps, starting today I won't see you anymore
Cuando se ama, el final se presiente
When you love, the ending is sensed
Se nota un frío, un vacío tan triste
There's a noticeable cold, a sad emptiness
Como en un film se adivina la escena
Like in a film, you sense the scene
Cuando se va, oh-no
When it leaves, oh-no
Se sabe cuando el dolor te atenaza
You know when the pain grips you tight
Cuando la historia de amor ya se acaba
When the love story is coming to an end
Por eso, dime que me amas
That’s why, tell me you love me
Y ya desde mañana nunca más
And from tomorrow, never again
Nunca más
Never again
Nunca más
Never again
