Se te olvido besarme en estos labios que se han roto

You forgot to kiss me on these lips that have been broken

Se te olvido mi mano al caminar

You forgot my hand when walking

Se te olvido mirarme con el brillo de tus ojos

You forgot to look at me with the sparkle in your eyes

Parece que no quieres recordar

It seems you don't want to remember

Pero algún día vas a querer volver al verme bien

But someday you'll want to come back when you see me doing well

Besando amor en otros labios

Kissing love on other lips

Y el corazón te va a doler, y vas a ver

And your heart will ache, and you will see

Que estabas tan equivocado

That you were so wrong

Si fui quien te quería

If I was the one who loved you

Fui quien daba todo por ti

I was the one who gave everything for you

Fui quien cada día

Solo quiso hacerte feliz

Quien te confiaba el alma ciegamente

Y tú lo olvidarías

Vas a querer volver

Y rescatarme de esta soledad
