My lady
Yo aprendí
A ser feliz
Y aun estando moribundo sonreí
También aprendí
Cuando te necesite y no estabas aquí
No debiste volver
No debiste volver
Ya yo te olvide
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
No debiste volver
No debiste volver
Ya yo te olvide
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
De ayer
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
De ayer
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
Entiende que se siente
Tu corazón es un delincuente
Que te roba lo que sientes
Y te deje casi en la muerte
Entiende que soy diferente
Y de tu trampa soy un sobreviviente
Tu abandono me hizo más fuerte
Para tener el valor de decirte
Que no debiste volver
No debiste volver
Ya yo te olvide
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
No debiste volver (no)
No debiste volver
Ya yo te olvide
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
(De ayer, de ayer, de ayer, de ayer)
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
(De ayer, de ayer, de ayer, de ayer)
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
Esta voz quebrantada te pide que te vayas
Y que ya no vuelvas (y que ya no vuelvas)
Que ya no vuelvas (no, no, no)
Yo aprendí (yo aprendí)
A ser feliz (a ser feliz)
Y aun estando moribundo sonreí (sonreí)
También aprendí (también aprendí)
A vivir sin ti (a vivir sin ti)
Cuando te necesite y no estabas aquí
No debiste volver (no)
No debiste volver
Ya yo te olvide
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
No debiste volver
No debiste volver
Ya yo te olvide
Tu amor es cosa de ayer
Dime cuantas veces
He llorado
Te he extrañado y no te ha importando
Dime cuantas veces
Dime cuantas veces
Freddy, dile cuantas veces
No he grabado
Por estar sentado viendo su retrato
Dile cuantas veces
Dile cuantas veces, ey
Dile cuantas veces (no)
No debiste volver
Dile cuantas veces
No debiste volver
Freddy
This is Eddy Lover
The song "No Debiste Volver" by Eddy Lover showcases a man's journey to come to terms with his past relationship with his former lover. He starts by saying that he has learned to be happy, even when he was close to his deathbed, and live without his lover who was absent when he needed her. He then goes on to say that his ex-lover should not have returned to his life as he has moved on from their past relationship, and her love for him is now a thing of the past. He pleads with her to understand that her heart is a criminal because it stole his feelings and left him almost dead. He then proceeds to say that he is different from her and that he has survived her trap of leaving him, which has made him stronger.
The chorus of the song repeats the same sentiment that his ex-lover should not have returned, and he has forgotten about her love. He's also demanding to know how many times he cried and missed her without her caring. The outro of the song is a conversation between Eddy Lover and his friend Freddy, where he reminds him that his ex-lover should not have returned.
The song clearly discusses the pain and regret that comes with trying to rekindle an old relationship that has long been forgotten. It highlights the importance of moving on and accepting the reality of the present. The song's passionate and soulful rhythm adds an emotional weight to the lyrics, making it relatable to anyone who has ever gone through a heartbreak.
