Yo sé que tienes un nuevo amor
Sin embargo, te deseo lo mejor
Si en mí, no encontraste felicidad
Tal vez, alguien más te la dará
Como la flor
Con tanto amor
Me diste tú,
Se marchitó
Me marcho hoy
Yo sé perder
Pero, ay, cómo me duele
Si vieras cómo duele perder tu amor
Con tu adiós, te llevas mi corazón
No sé si pueda volver a amar
Porque te dí todo el amor que pude dar
Como la flor
Con tanto amor
Me diste tú,
Se marchitó
Me marcho hoy
Yo sé perder
Pero, ay, como me duele
Cómo Quisiera
Me duele el corazón
al verte en los brazos de otro amor
Cómo quisiera, amor querido
que tú y yo estuviéramos unidos
y cómo quisiera, amor,
tenerte aquí conmigo para siempre
Llorar y llorar
al saber que tú y yo
jamás, jamás, jamás
podrémos estar juntos otra vez
Me duele el corazón
tú me dejastes sin razón
No puedo vivir sin tu cariño
Y quiero que regreses aquí conmigo
y como quisiera, amor
tenerte aqui conmigo para siempre

    General Comment:Correction: I did get the marchitó line wrong as well as the one after that. It really means "He left, I leave today"

    (Coro)

    *I'm not totally sure about the translation for "marchitó" because I don't know that conjugation, but it shouldn't be too far off.

    General Comment:This is such a beautiful song. One of my Selena favorites. I would love to talk to A.B. and Pete one day and talk about these songs. They were written so skillfully.

    General Comment:why doesn't anybody comment on her spanish songs? you can look at other sites for the english translations if that's the problem...anyway, this song is about love...(duh)...it's about how love should last if it was ever true. it's about a girl seeing a former love w/ his new love. i know exactly how that feels...and i didn't realize it until now. i'm stupid! anyway, yeah. you ppl should look at selena's spanish songs more often.
