Si Una Vez
Banda El Grullo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yo te di todo mi amor y más
Y tu no reconoces ni lo que es amar

Yo me puse dispuesta a tus pies
Y tan solo con desprecio me has pagado pero ahora ve

Si una vez dije que te amaba, hoy me arrepiento
Si una vez dije que te amaba

No se lo que pensé, estaba loca
Si una vez dije que te amaba y que por ti la vida daba
Si una vez dije que te amaba no lo vuelvo a hacer
Ese error es cosa de ayer

Yo se que un día tu volverás
Y tu de todo te arrepentirás

Yo me puse dispuesta a tus pies
Y tan solo con desprecio me has pagado pero ahora ve

Si una vez dije que te amaba, hoy me arrepiento
Si una vez dije que te amaba
No se lo que pensé, estaba loca
Si una vez dije que te amaba y que por ti la vida daba
Si una vez dije que te amaba no lo vuelvo a hacer
Ese error es cosa de ayer

Si una vez dije que te amaba y que por ti la vida daba

Si una vez dije que te amaba no lo vuelvo a hacer
Ese error es cosa de ayer

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Banda El Grullo's song "Si Una Vez" tell the story of a woman who gave her all to a man who did not appreciate her love. She became willing to do anything for him, even willing to put herself at his feet in adoration, but he repaid her with disrespect and contempt. Now she regrets ever telling him that she loved him, feeling that she must have been crazy to do so. The lyrics reveal the pain and humiliation that she experienced at the hands of this man, and her resolve to never repeat that mistake again.

The song highlights the self-respect that the woman has regained, and her decision to move on from the past. She knows that one day he will come back to her, but by that point, she will no longer feel the same way about him. She has grown tired of being treated poorly and has learned to value herself more. The lyrics express the idea of self-love and the courage to let go of a toxic relationship.
