Me despedí
I said goodbye
Pero te mentí
But I lied to you
No me quería alejar
I didn't want to drift away
Disimulé
I hid it well
Me aguanté
I held on
Pero es que ya no puedo más
But I just can't take it anymore
Quise borrarte, olvidarte
I wanted to erase you, forget you
Pero te vuelvo a recordar
But I remember you again
Todos los días
Every single day
Salgo a caminar
I go out to walk
Hago mil cosas pa no pensar
I do a thousand things to not think
Me lleno de adornos
I fill myself with decorations
Sufro de trastornos
I suffer from disorders
Siempre te quiero llamar
I always want to call you
No quiero nada, nada, nada
I don't want anything, nothing, nothing
Y es que soy tan complicada
And it's that I'm so complicated
Ay, ay, ay de mí
Oh, oh, oh woe to me
De este amor que se metió y que se dispara
Of this love that got in and shoots up
Se contagia y te reclama
It spreads and demands you
Ay, ay, ay de mí
Oh, oh, oh woe to me
De este amor que se me incrusta como bala
Of this love that pierces me like a bullet
Que me ahorca y que me mata
That chokes me and kills me
Todo sería diferente
Everything would be different
Si tú me quisieras
If you loved me
Debo frenar
I must slow down
Porque no puedo más
Because I can't take it anymore
Me duele todo
Everything hurts
Así me dijo el psiquiatra
That's what the psychiatrist told me
Yo sé que es mejor
I know it's better
Que me olvide de tu cara
To forget your face
No quiero nada, nada, nada
I don't want anything, nothing, nothing
Y es que soy tan obstinada
And it's just that I'm so stubborn
Ay, ay, ay de mí
Oh, oh, oh, poor me
De este amor que se metió y que se dispara
Of this love that got in and starts to ignite
Se contagia y te reclama
It spreads and demands you back
Ay, ay, ay de mí
Oh, oh, oh, poor me
De este amor que se me incrusta como bala
Of this love that embeds in me like a bullet
Que me ahorca y que me mata
That chokes me and that kills me
Todo sería diferente
Everything would be different
Si tú me quisieras
If you loved me
Si tú me quisieras yo dejaba todo
If you loved me, I would leave it all behind
Ya no iré a terapia, sé que te perdono
I won't go to therapy anymore, I know I forgive you
Con tu pelo negro tejería un cuento
With your black hair, I'd weave a tale
Yo quiero vivir contigo este momento
I want to live this moment with you
Ay, ay, ay de mí
Oh, oh, oh, woe is me
De este amor que se metió y que se dispara
Of this love that crept in and takes aim
Se contagia y te reclama
It spreads and demands you back
Ay, ay, ay de mí
Oh, oh, oh, woe is me
De este amor que se me incrusta como bala
Of this love that embeds in me like a bullet
Que me ahorca y que me mata
That strangles me and kills me
Todo sería diferente si tú me
Everything would be different if you
Si tú me quisieras
If you loved me
