Lyrics

Por más que quiero
No te puedo olvidar
Porque a mi vida
Supiste envenenar
Por un cariño
Que no ha dejado en ti
La misma herida
Que sangra en mi
Mas que te importa un pecho que solloza
Si ya en el corazón tú lo has herido
Si tú nunca has presentido su congoja
Yo solo he de llorar tanta amargura
Yo solo he de pagar esta condena
Pero tengo que ahogar mi amarga pena
Por un amor que hizo sangrar mi corazón
Yo solo he de llorar tanta amargura
Yo solo he de pagar esta condena
Pero tengo que ahogar mi amarga pena
Por un amor que hizo sangrar mi corazón

Lyrics translation

As much as I want
I can't forget you
Because to my life
You knew how to poison
For a love
That has not left in you
The same wound
That bleeds in my
But you don't care about a sobbing chest
If already in the heart you have wounded him
If you have never experienced his grief
I just have to cry so much bitterness
I just have to pay this sentence
But I have to drown my bitter sorrow
For a love that made my heart bleed
I just have to cry so much bitterness
I just have to pay this sentence
But I have to drown my bitter sorrow
For a love that made my heart bleed
