I Couldn't Let You Go

Joaquina

No Te Pude Soltar

One, two, three, four

Caminando por la calle
Me paso alguien por al lado que cargaba tu perfume
Y no te voy a mentir, claro que sonreí

Por un segundo, tú inundaste mi mente
Me empezaron a hablar voces que he tratado silenciar
¿Estarás con alguien nuevo? ¿cómo sigue tu mamá? (cuéntame, ¿cómo sigue tu mamá?)

Porque yo no te pude soltar
Lo intenté y quedé por la mitad
Nos cruzamos en un cuarto frío
Dos extraños muertos de miedo, ay, se me acabó el hilo
Para coser esto juntos de nuevo

Me llamaste pa' decirme que he cambiado
Que ya no soy la misma que antes
Y no es mi culpa yo te di demasiado
No me devolviste nada y he intentado ocultarlo

Me está costando soltar el pasado
Sanar las cicatrices y seguir
No tengo doctorado pa' cocer puntos a mano
Pero tengo melodías que sirven de cirujano

Porque yo no te pude soltar
Lo intenté y quedé por la mitad
Nos cruzamos en un cuarto frío
Dos extraños muertos de miedo, ay, se me acabó el hilo
Pa' coser esto juntos de nuevo

Porque yo no te pude soltar
No quise, no pude, no quiero, es la verdad
Pasamos a ser dos extraños jugando a que sí fue fácil olvidar
Tal vez, ahora me toca perdonar

I Couldn't Let You Go

One, two, three, four

Walking down the street
Someone passed by me carrying your perfume
And I won't lie, of course I smiled

For a second, you flooded my mind
Voices I've tried to silence started talking to me
Are you with someone new? How's your mom doing? (tell me, how's your mom doing?)

Because I couldn't let you go
I tried and I was left in the middle
We crossed paths in a cold room
Two strangers scared to death, oh, I ran out of thread
To sew this back together

You called me to tell me I've changed
That I'm not the same as before
And it's not my fault, I gave you too much
You didn't give me anything back and I've tried to hide it

It's hard for me to let go of the past
To heal the scars and move on
I don't have a doctorate to stitch up wounds by hand
But I have melodies that serve as a surgeon

Because I couldn't let you go
I tried and I was left in the middle
We crossed paths in a cold room
Two strangers scared to death, oh, I ran out of thread
To sew this back together

Because I couldn't let you go
I didn't want to, I couldn't, I don't want to, that's the truth
We became two strangers pretending it was easy to forget
Maybe now it's my turn to forgive
