Así me pasó contigo

That's how it happened with you

Así me pasó contigo

I have to tell youTe tengo que decir
That I no longer feel the desire to see you in my chestQue ya no siento en mi pecho el deseo de verte
That's what you wantedAsí quisiste tú
You ended the dream of a happy manAcabaste con el sueño de un hombre alegre
I want to be happyYo quiero ser feliz
With someone who values my noble actsCon alguien que de valor a mis actos nobles
It's not easy for meNo es fácil para mi
I found the beloved womanHallé a la mujer querida
I can't hide anything from you, my heartNo puedo ocultarte nada corazón
I can't tell liesNo puedo decir mentiras
I was at a party, my heartYo estaba en una parranda corazón
She arrived and I gave her my lifeLlegó y le entregué mi vida

You didn't care, my loveNada te importaba amor mío
When I told youCuando te decía
That I was going to get tiredQue yo me iba a cansar
Love is seen, my loveEl amor se mira amor mío
When it's mistreated and not allowed to flowCuando se maltrata y no se deja rodar

That's how it happened with youAsí me pasó contigo
That's how it ended between usAsí se acabó lo nuestro
Don't say I surprise youNo digas que te sorprendo
Don't play with affectionNo juegues con el cariño
I loved you more than myselfTe quise mas que a mi
I can't hide itNo lo puedo ocultar
And I can't denyY no puedo negar
That I was happy with youQue fui feliz contigo
The flowers I gave youLas flores que te di
You let them witherLas dejaste marchitar
And the photo of usY la foto de los dos
You threw it in a swollen riverLa tiraste en un río crecido

That's how it happened with youAsí me pasó contigo
That's how it ended between usAsí se acabó lo nuestro
Don't say I surprise youNo digas que te sorprendo
Don't play with affectionNo juegues con el cariño

I must also sayTambién debo decir
That I don't forget your noble attitudesQue tus actitudes nobles no se me olvidan
And the photo of usY la foto de los dos
Embraced on the beaches of CartagenaAbrazados en las playas de Cartagena
Blessed misunderstandingBendita incomprensión
Why does it always interfere with feelingsPorqué se entromete siempre en los sentimientos
I don't know what happened to usNo se que nos pasó
We think so differentlyPensamos tan diferente
If I say BarranquillaSi digo que en Barranquilla
You say Santa MartaTu dices que en Santa Marta
If I say the valley is beautifulSi digo que el valle es lindo,
Villanueva, you can't stand itVillanueva a ti te mata

A goodbye I leave you, my loveUn adiós te dejo, amor mío
And not foreverY no para siempre
Because I will returnPorque voy a volver
Let's give ourselves time, my loveVamo' a darnos tiempo, amor mío
Let love separateQue el amor separe
Our way of beingNuestra forma de ser

That's how it happened with youAsí me pasó contigo
That's how it ended between usAsí se acabó lo nuestro
Don't say I surprise youNo digas que te sorprendo
Don't play with affectionNo juegues con el cariño
