Second Choice

Segunda Opción

You looked at me sweetlyMe mirabas bonito
But you were thinking of someone elsePero pensabas en alguien más
I talked about our futureTe platicaba de nuestro futuro
And you just looked awayY tú mirabas al pasar

You laughed with meTe reías conmigo
But your eyes were still over therePero tus ojos seguían allá
Your company was niceFue muy buena tu compañía
But you never thought about stayingPero nunca pensando en quedar

I was always your second choiceFui siempre tu segunda opción
The backup plan that loved you the mostEl plan B que más te amó
I gave you everything, even knowingTe di todo, aunque sabía
It would hurt my heartQue dolería el corazón

And even though I wanted to be the storyY aunque quise ser la historia
I was the mistake in the taleFui del cuento el error
To me, you were everythingPara mí lo eras todo
And I ended up beingY yo para ti terminé siendo

Always the second choiceSiempre la segunda opción

I dedicated songs to youTe dedicaba canciones
And you were thinking of his voiceY tú pensando en su voz
I waited for an 'I love you'Yo esperaba un te amo
And you were thinking of saying goodbyeY tú pensando en decir adiós

I don’t blame you for missing himNo te culpo por extrañar
But I do for staying without being therePero sí por quedarte sin estar
I broke waiting for youYo me rompí esperándote
And you used me to forgetY tú me usaste para olvidar

I was always your second choiceFui siempre tu segunda opción
The backup plan that loved you the mostEl plan B que más te amó
I gave you everything, even knowingTe di todo, aunque sabía
It would hurt my heartQue dolería el corazón

And even though I wanted to be the storyY aunque quise ser la historia
I was the mistake in the taleFui del cuento el error
To me, you were everythingPara mí lo eras todo
And I ended up beingY yo para ti terminé siendo

Always the second choiceSiempre la segunda opción

And now I don’t write to youY ahora no te escribo
But I still think of youPero todavía te pienso
With these drinks in meCon estos tragos encima
I don’t cry, I just can’tNo lloro, nomás no puedo

Even if I say I’m fineAunque diga que estoy bien
You never taught me to pretendNo me enseñaste fingir
And even though everyone comforts meY aunque todos me consuelen
I still come back to youTodavía vuelvo a ti

I was always your second choiceFui siempre tu segunda opción
And I knew it from the first helloY lo supe desde el primer hola
You didn’t choose me for loveNo me elegiste por amor
But out of fear of being aloneSino por miedo a estar sola

And that hurts, oh how it hurtsY eso duele, cómo duele
How it hurts the heartCómo duele al corazón
But if one day you regret itPero si un día te arrepientes
I’ll be here waiting for you as alwaysAquí te espero como siempre

In case someone breaks your heartPor si alguien te traiciona el corazón
