Tal vez buscabas otra cosa
Maybe you were looking for something else
Perdona los inconvenientes y demoras
Forgive the inconveniences and delays
Te confundías de persona
You mistook the person
No doy amor por conveniencia, te equivocas
I'm not giving love for convenience, you're mistaken
Y no te niego, por un rato fue muy bueno
And I won't deny it, for a while it was very good
Y no te niego, de momento fui feliz
And I won't deny it, for a moment I was happy
Y aunque pensé que lo que diste fue sincero
And even though I thought what you gave was sincere
Fue poco al lado de lo que yo te di
It was little compared to what I gave you
Lo que te di, nadie lo compra con dinero
What I gave you, no one can buy with money
Lo que te di, sin condición, fue amor del bueno
What I gave you, unconditionally, was true love
Es que te di mi corazón en un pañuelo
I gave you my heart in a handkerchief
Y recibí sus restos en un trapo viejo
And I received its remains in an old rag
Que seas feliz, te dejo ir, con lo que te di
Be happy, I let you go, with what I gave you
Tal vez buscabas otra cosa
Maybe you were looking for something else
No doy amor por conveniencia, te equivocas
I don't give love for convenience, you're mistaken
Y no te niego, por un rato fue muy bueno
And I won't deny, for a while it was very good
Y no te niego, de momento fui feliz
And I won't deny, for a moment I was happy
Y aunque pensé que lo que diste fue sincero
And although I thought what you gave was sincere
Fue poco al lado de lo que yo te di
It was little compared to what I gave you
Lo que te di, nadie lo compra con dinero
What I gave you, no one buys with money
Lo que te di, sin condición, fue amor del bueno
What I gave you, unconditionally, was true love
Es que te di mi corazón en un pañuelo
I gave you my heart in a handkerchief
Y recibí sus restos en un trapo viejo
And I received its remnants in an old rag
Que seas feliz, te dejo ir, con lo que te di
May you be happy, I let you go, with what I gave you
¡Eso!
That's right!
(Sé que te di todo, todo te lo di)
(I know I gave you everything, I gave you it all)
Ay, te lo di, te lo di, te lo di
Oh, I gave it to you, I gave it to you, I gave it to you
(Sé que te di todo)
(I know I gave you everything)
Y no te niego que fui feliz
And I won't deny that I was happy
(Todo lo te lo di)
(I gave you it all)
Sé feliz, te dejo ir
Be happy, I'm letting you go
(Sé que te di todo) Todo todo
(I know I gave you everything) Everything, everything
(Todo te lo di)
(I gave you everything)
¡Eso!
That's right!
(Yo no sé, cómo fue)
(I don't know how it happened)
(Dime qué, cómo no me di cuenta, no sé)
(Tell me what, how didn't I realize, I don't know)
(Cómo fue, dime qué)
(How it happened, tell me what)
(Cómo no me di cuenta, no sé)
(How didn't I realize, I don't know)
