[English]

Our road has come to an end

Our river has run dry

And even though we gave it everything we had

Our love just didn't last

There are no culprits in this story

I'm not pointing any fingers at you

It simply didn't work out

And accepting it is all I can do

At the end of the day, I swear, I don't regret a thing

Every laugh, every kiss, every damn late night

They were all worth it

Every second with you

And I'll carry that with me

And I only hope that someday

When the memory hits you

When you think about us

You don't hold back even a single "I love you"

I just hope you smile

And say to yourself in a whisper

That crazy, bitter damn guy

To be honest, he really loved me

May you remember only the good things

And let time erase the pain

Because, in the end, my queen

I did love you, and you have no idea how much

And cheers

To those bad decisions

That turn into a good lesson

It's nothing but Grupo Firme, uh

I know I wasn't perfect

With my temper and my madness

But I loved you in my own way

With all my impure soul

And even though you're no longer with me

And someone else heals your heartache

You will always be the woman

That I loved so much

And I only hope that someday

When the memory hits you

When you think about us

You don't hold back even a single "I love you"

I just hope you smile

And say to yourself in a whisper

That crazy, bitter damn guy

To be honest, he really loved me

May you remember only the good things

And let time erase the pain

Because, in the end, my queen

I did love you, and you have no idea how much

[Spanish]

Se nos acabó el camino

Se nos fue secando el río

Y aunque le echamos mil ganas

No duró nuestro cariño

No hay culpables en la historia

No te apunto con el dedo

Simplemente no jaló

Y aceptarlo es lo que puedo

Al final del día, te juro, no me arrepiento de nada

Cada risa, cada beso, cada pinche madrugada

Valieron toda la pena

Cada segundo contigo

Y eso me lo llevo conmigo

Y solo espero que algún día

Cuando te llegue el recuerdo

Cuando pienses en nosotros

No me guardes ni un te quiero

Solo espero y sonrías

Y te digas en voz baja

Ese pinche vato loco y amargado

La neta, sí me amaba

Que te acuerdes de lo bueno

Y que el tiempo borre el daño

Porque, al final, mi reina

Sí te quise, y no sabes cuánto

Y salud

Por esas malas decisiones

Que se vuelven un buen aprendizado

Y puro Grupo Firme, uh

Yo sé que no fui perfecto

Con mi genio y mi locura

Pero te amé a mi manera

Con toda mi alma impura

Y aunque ya no estés conmigo

Y otro sane tu quebranto

Siempre serás la mujer

A la que quise tanto

Y solo espero que algún día

Cuando te llegue el recuerdo

Cuando pienses en nosotros

No me guardes ni un te quiero

Solo espero y sonrías

Y te digas en voz baja

Ese pinche vato loco y amargado

La neta, sí me amaba

Que te acuerdes de lo bueno

Y que el tiempo borre el daño

Porque, al final, mi reina

Sí te quise, y no sabes cuánto
