Nunca Te Pude Alcanzar

I Could Never Reach You

Nunca Te Pude Alcanzar

I want to light up this afternoon and ask: When will we see each other?Quiero prenderme esta tarde y preguntar: ¿Cuándo nos vemos?
This boy no longer plays, especially not in the streetEste niño ya no juega, y en la calle mucho menos
My playground was always on your back and breastsMi patio de recreo siempre fue en tu espalda y senos
And my bitterest night, having to miss youY mi noche más amarga, tener que echarte de menos
But well, if you ask for it then let's not rememberPero bueno, si lo pides entonces no recordemos
And if we see each other face to face, I know we don't know each otherY si nos vemos de frente, sé que no nos conocemos
Erase the time, throw away everything that reminds you of meBorra el tiempo, tira todo lo que te recuerde a mí
The photos I took of you, the letters I wrote to you, yesLas fotos que te tomé, las cartas que te escribí, sí

Nothing is enough like your big coatsNada es suficiente como tus grandes abrigos
Like your expensive earrings, the party with your friendsComo tus aretes caros, la fiesta con tus amigos
I was never welcome because of my appearance and tattoosYo nunca fui bienvenido por mi finta y los tatuajes
Because I was not your prince, and my Mazda is not a carriagePorque ni yo fui tu príncipe, y mi Mazda no es carruaje
Don't ask me to lower myself, to calm down or relaxNo quieras que me rebaje, que me calme o me relaje
Don't write to me on social media, delete all my messagesNo me escribas por las redes, borra todos mis mensajes
Don't wait for me to come back when my journey endsNo me esperes de regreso cuando termine mi viaje
Because to your damn ego I dedicate this homagePorque a tu maldito ego le dedico este homenaje

I gave you everything I could give youYo te di todo lo que te pude dar
But it wasn't enough, I could never reach youPero no fue suficiente, nunca te pude alcanzar
It was a star that stopped shiningFue una estrella que dejó de brillar
From hate to love, there's a step I don't want to takeDel odio al amor, hay un paso que no quiero dar
I gave you everything I could give youYo te di todo lo que te pude dar
But it wasn't enough, I could never reach youPero no fue suficiente, nunca te pude alcanzar
It was a star that stopped shiningFue una estrella que dejó de brillar
From hate to love, there's a step I don't want to takeDel odio al amor, hay un paso que no quiero dar
I left in the early morning, six on the clock handsSalí de madrugada, un seis en las manecillas
And although it could have been my sky, that star no longer shinesY aunque pudo ser mi cielo, esa estrella ya no brilla
She liked to dress expensively, me, a simple lifeLe gustaba vestir caro, a mí, la vida sencilla

Always smoking Marlboro cigarettesSiempre cigarro Marlboro
Me, my seedless roosterYo mi gallo sin semilla
My best-written verse caused her discomfortMi verso mejor escrito le causaba un malestar
And a storm of doubts if the phone rangY una tormenta de dudas si sonaba el celular
I could never understand herNunca la pude entender
We could never talkNunca pudimos hablar
We could never go backNunca pudimos volver
She never taught me to danceNunca me enseñó a bailar
In peace, I had to leave everything I once dreamed ofEn paz tuve que dejar todo lo que un día soñé
I returned alone for my luck, I got into the rhythm and flew (flew, flew, flew)Volví solo por mi suerte, me monté al ritmo y volé (volé, volé, volé)

I distanced myself from all evilDe todo el mal yo me alejé
If you see my lost love, please let her knowSi ven a mi amor perdido, por favor avísenle
I gave you everything I could give youYo te di todo lo que te pude dar
But it wasn't enough, I could never reach youPero no fue suficiente, nunca te pude alcanzar
It was a star that stopped shiningFue una estrella que dejó de brillar
From hate to love, there's a step I don't want to takeDel odio al amor, hay un paso que no quiero dar
I gave you everything I could give youYo te di todo lo que te pude dar
But it wasn't enough, I could never reach youPero no fue suficiente, nunca te pude alcanzar
It was a star that stopped shiningFue una estrella que dejó de brillar
From hate to love, there's a step I don't want to takeDel odio al amor, hay un paso que no quiero dar
