Todo era más bello, bajo el cristal de su mirada
Everything was more beautiful, under the glass of her gaze
Ella era tan fría
She was so cold
Ella era tan blanca
She was so pale
Era tan bella
She was so beautiful
Llegó a mi vida como por una equivocación
She arrived in my life as if by mistake
No tenía problemas, pero fue la solución
I had no problems, but she was the solution
Juntos recorrimos muchas horas hasta el amanecer
Together we traveled many hours until dawn
Ella era distinta, era distante
She was different, she was distant
Era esquiva y se ocultaba
She was elusive and she hid away
No era solo mía, lo entenía
She wasn't just mine, I understood that
La compartía y la negaba
I shared it and I denied it
Eramos uno siempre detrás de la puerta
We were one always behind the door
Tan elocuente y elegante, tan despierta
So eloquent and elegant, so awake
Pero una noche dislumbré
But one night I glimpsed
Todo lo que iba a perder
Everything I was about to lose
Y tuve que decirle que no
And I had to tell her no
Tal vez en otro momento
Maybe at another time
Y tuve que decirle que yo
And I had to tell her that I
Ya no era el mismo de ayer
Was no longer the same as yesterday
Tuve que decirle que no
I had to tell her no
Dar vuelta y retroceder
Turn around and go back
Y tuve que decirle que no
And I had to tell her no
Ya no
Not anymore
Ha pasado el tiempo y el recuerdo
Time has passed and the memory
Y aún seguimos olvidando
And we're still forgetting
La vida sigue inexorable
Life goes on inexorably
Las heridas van cerrando
The wounds are healing
Entre rincones la percibo aún la veo
In the corners, I still perceive her, I still see her
Y me sorprendo reprimiendo algún deseo
And I'm surprised, suppressing some desire
Ese suspiro, no tendrá lugar
That sigh will have no place
Ese suspiro, no tendrá lugar
That sigh, will have no place
Y tuve que decirle que no
And I had to tell her no
Tal vez en otro momento
Maybe another time
Y tuve que decirle que yo
And I had to tell her that I
No he vuelto a ser el mismo de ayer
Haven't been the same as yesterday
Tuve que decirle que no
I had to tell her no
Tal vez en otro momento
Maybe another time
Y tuve que decirle que yo
And I had to tell her that I
Ya no
No more
Ya no
No more
Ya no, ya no, ya no
No more, no more, no more
Y tuve que decirle que no
And I had to tell her no
Y tuve que decirle
And I had to tell her
Y tuve que decirle que no
And I had to tell her no
Ya no
No more
Y tuve que decirle que no
And I had to tell her no
