Como Yo Te Amé
Alejandro Lerner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que ya lo he pensado bien why asi es mejor...
Que no vale el sufrimiento que nos hemos provocado
Si algun otro te amara mejor que yo
Si algun otro te amara mejor que yo.
Why tus lagrimas me pegan en la cara
Why esa misma boca que antes te beso
Dame un beso why que culmine nuestro adios.
Como yo te ame,
No habra mas nadie, no habra mas despues
Como yo te ame
Nadie te ha amado como yo te ame.
Por adentro el fuego quema mis entraas,
Yo te juro que me ire why no volvere....
Hoy amarrare las ganas de llevarte hacia la cama
Why de amarte como solo yo te ame.
Why Como yo te ame,
No habra mas nadie, no habra mas despues
Why como yo, como yo te ame
Nadie te ha amado como yo te ame.
Why si he mentido es por amarte locamente
Why por sentir que era esa pena para mi
Porque quiero de tu vida un futuro diferente
Que el destino que soaste junto a mi...
Que el destino que soaste junto a mi.
Why Como yo te ame,
No habra mas nadie, no habra mas despues
Why como yo, como yo te ame
Nadie te ha amado como yo te ame.
Why Como yo te ame,
No habra mas nadie, no habra mas despues
Why como yo, como yo te ame
Nadie te ha amado como yo te ame.
The lyrics to Alejandro Lerner's song "Como Yo Te Ame" (Like I Loved You) tells the story of a man who is telling his ex-partner that he is no longer in love with her and that it's best for them to move on from the pain they have caused each other. He tells her that if there is someone else who can love her better than he did, he wants her to be with that person. However, as he sees her cry, he realizes that he still has feelings for her and that the words he needs to say to make it all better eludes him. He then tells her that he loves her as no one else has, and he is willing to leave her and never come back, but the thought of not being able to love her as he did before. The chorus is a repeating statement of how he loves her and that no one else can ever love her like he did.
The song draws the picture of a relationship that has come to its end, but the love still lingers in the man's heart. He is struggling to let go of the memories, the love, and the bond he shared with her. The lyrics express that he is resigned to the fact that they can never be together again, but he still loves her and that loving her was the highlight of his life.
In summary, "Como Yo Te Ame" is a song about unconditional love, heartbreak, and loss. It portrays the difficulty of letting go of someone you truly love, even if it's the right thing to do.
