Ya me habían dicho que el amor era así

I had already been told that love was like this

Ya me habían dicho que el amor era así

I sensed itYo lo presentí
That soon you would want to endQue en poco tiempo tú quisieras terminar
God wanted it that way,Dios lo quiso así,
So there's no problemEntonces no hay problema
I won't cry.No voy ha llorar.

What will become of meQue será de mí
Am I perhaps the prisoner of a mistake,Acaso soy el prisionero de un error,
Who lived for youQue vivió de ti
And you alone broke his heart.Y que tu solo le rompiste el corazón.

And I won't cry when I see you leaveY no voy a llorar Cuando te vea partir
I will try to eraseTratare de borrar
That disappointmentEsa desilusión
That you left in meQue dejaras en mí
And I swear to GodY te lo juro por dios
That I won't cry.Que no voy a llorar.

If you want to leaveSi te quieres marchar
I won't stop youYo no voy a impedir
Your dream of flying to a happier worldTu sueño de volar aun mundo más feliz
With crystal cloudsCon nubes de cristal
Leaving behind what I kept for you.Dejando lo que yo guardaba para ti.

I had already been told that love was like thisYa me habían dicho que el amor era así
I don't know why I didn't want to listenYo no sé por que no quise escuchar
Today you're leaving and I have to liveHoy te alejas y me toca vivir
Perhaps the most bitter experience.La experiencia más amarga quizá.

I had already been told that love was like thisYa me habían dicho que el amor era así
And today I find it's the sad truthY hoy encuentro que es la triste verdad
To love is tied to sufferingEl querer esta amarrado al sufrir
And suffering wrapped in loneliness.Y el sufrir envuelto en la soledad.

A dawnUn amanecer
Maybe one beautiful morning you'll return,Tal vez una mañana hermosa volverás,
For the one who oncePor el que alguna ves
You'll realize truly loved you.Te darás cuenta que me amaste de verdad.

And it will be too lateY tarde será
Because if you leave I won't wait for youPor que si tú te vas yo no te esperare
It will hurt meSi me dolerá
But I can wait for you to want to return.Pero podré esperar que tú quieras volver.

And then you'll come backY entonces volverás
Remembering the loveRecordando el amor
That you want to leaveQue tú quieras dejar
And you'll feel painY sentirás dolor
You'll ask goodbyePreguntaras adiós
Lord where is sheSeñor en donde esta
If I was his illusionSi yo era su ilusión
Crying you'll seekLlorando buscaras
Refuge in another loveRefugio en otro amor
And then they will returnY entonces volverán
Moments of passionMomentos de pasión
That will move meQue me conmoverán
But I swear to God that I won't cry.Pero juro por dios que no voy a llorar.

I had already been told that love was like thisYa me habían dicho que el amor era así
