[English]

Fue como fue

It was how it was

Me robaste el alma, me tuviste a tus pies

You stole my soul, you had me at your feet

Te amé

I loved you

Me equivoqué

I was wrong

Creía que era eterno despertarme en tu piel

I thought it was eternal, waking up in your skin

No sé

I don't know

Si fui ingenua al pensar

If I was naive to think

Que amarías igual

That you would love the same

Con la misma fuerza de un huracán

With the same force as a hurricane

Fue mi culpa al final

It was my fault in the end

El quererte de más

For loving you too much

Y tan solo recibir la mitad

And only receiving half

...

...

Bajé la guardia y me expuse al dolor

I let my guard down and exposed myself to the pain

Caricias falsas, frío en la habitación

Fake caresses, cold in the room

Bajé la guardia y aposté el corazón

I let my guard down and bet my heart

Tantas palabras y ninguna emoción

So many words and no emotion

Yo te quise y no te bastó

I loved you and it wasn't enough for you

Y aún te amo a pesar de que has sido mi peor error

And I still love you even though you've been my worst mistake

...

...

Es como es

It is how it is

Aquí no queda nada, ni me toca perder

There's nothing left here, nor do I have to lose

Tal vez

Maybe

Si fui ingenua al pensar

If I was naive to think

Que amarías igual

That you would love the same

Con la misma fuerza de un huracán

With the same force as a hurricane

Fue mi culpa al final

It was my fault in the end

El quererte de más

For loving you too much

Y tan solo recibir la mitad

And only receiving half

Bajé la guardia y me expuse al dolor

I let my guard down and exposed myself to the pain

Caricias falsas, frío en la habitación

Fake caresses, cold in the room

Bajé la guardia y aposté el corazón

I let my guard down and bet my heart

Tantas palabras y ninguna emoción

So many words and no emotion

Yo te quise y no te bastó

I loved you and it wasn't enough for you

Y aún te amo a pesar de que has sido mi peor error

And I still love you even though you've been my worst mistake

Uh-oh, oh

Uh-oh, oh

Uh-oh, oh

Uh-oh, oh

Fue mi culpa al final

It was my fault in the end

El quererte de más

For loving you too much

Y tan solo recibir la mitad

And only receiving half

Bajé la guardia y me expuse al dolor

I let my guard down and exposed myself to the pain

Caricias falsas, frío en la habitación

Uh-oh, oh

Mi peor error

Ngữ pháp:

• Me robaste el alma, me tuviste a tus pies

  ➔ Preterite tense (robaste, tuviste)

  ➔ The preterite tense (or simple past) is used to describe completed actions in the past. "Robaste" (you stole) and "tuviste" (you had) indicate actions that finished at a specific point in the past.

• Creía que era eterno despertarme en tu piel

  ➔ Imperfect tense (creía) and subjunctive mood (era). Use of “que” to introduce a subordinate clause

  ➔ "Creía" (I believed) is in the imperfect tense, describing a past belief. "Era" (it was) is in the subjunctive mood here because it expresses a subjective opinion or a condition contrary to fact within the "que" clause. "que" creates a subordinate clause showing dependence.

• Si fui ingenua al pensar que amarías igual

  ➔ Conditional clause with “si”, imperfect subjunctive (amarias)

  ➔ This sentence expresses a hypothetical or contrary-to-fact condition. "Si" (if) introduces the condition. "Amarías" (you would love) is the conditional form of the verb. In this case it functions as the imperfect subjunctive.

• Fue mi culpa al final, el quererte de más

  ➔ Use of infinitive as a noun (quererte). Prepositional phrase (de más).

  ➔ "Quererte" (to love you) functions as a noun here, representing the act of loving. "De más" means 'too much' or 'excessively'. It emphasizes the excessiveness of the love.

• Y tan solo recibir la mitad

  ➔ Use of adverb "tan" with "solo". Definite article "la" with "mitad"

  ➔ "Tan solo" means 'only' or 'just'. The addition of "tan" emphasizes the limited extent. "La mitad" uses the definite article because it refers to a specific half (of what was given).

• Bajé la guardia y me expuse al dolor

  ➔ Use of preterite (bajé, expuse). Reflexive verb in the preterite (me expuse).

  ➔ "Bajé" (I lowered) and "expuse" (I exposed) are in the preterite, indicating completed actions. "Me expuse" is a reflexive verb; it means 'I exposed myself'.

• Y aún te amo a pesar de que has sido mi peor error

  ➔ Present tense (amo) with adverb "aún", perfect tense (has sido)

  ➔ "Aún" means 'still'. "Has sido" (you have been) is in the present perfect tense, indicating an action that started in the past and continues to have relevance in the present.
