Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cuanto has querido y yo te supe dar
Solo y herido así me dejas
Sabiendo que mañana iras con otro al altar
Lloraras, Lloraras por tu capricho
Si yo se que es a mi a quien quieres
No podrás ser feliz con ningún otro
Pues conmigo conociste el amor
Te he prometido que te he de olvidar
Cuanto has querido y yo te supe dar
Solo y herido así me dejas
Sabiendo que mañana iras con otro al altar
Lloraras, Lloraras por tu capricho
Si yo se que es a mi a quien quieres
No podrás ser feliz con ningún otro
Pues conmigo conociste el amor
Si el amor si el amor
Lloraras, Lloraras por tu capricho
Si yo se que es a mi a quien quieres
No podrás ser feliz con ningún otro
Pues conmigo conociste el amor
Si el amor si el amor
The song "Te He Prometido" by Benny Sadel is a heart-wrenching ballad about a man who has promised himself to forget his former lover, who he feels deeply hurt by.
