Joe Veras Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Quiero decirte todo
Porque me siento herido
En mi peor momento
Te digo a Dios
Hoy si acaba lo nuestro
Viste en mi un enemigo
Que eras mi compañera
No más explicaciones ya me cansé
Espero que lo entiendas
Me voy aunque me vuelvo loco
Me separare de ti
Me voy porque lo que me has hecho
No lo voy a resistir
Tantas cosas nos unieron
Y tú lo hiciste destruir
Tantas cosas nos unieron
Y tú lo hiciste destruir
Viste en mi un enemigo
Yo siempre pensando
Que eras mi compañera
No más explicaciones
Ya me cansé
Espero que lo entiendas
Me voy aunque me vuelvo loco
Me separare de ti
Me voy porque lo que me has hecho
No lo voy a resistir
Tantas cosas nos unieron
Y tú lo hiciste destruir
Tantas cosas nos unieron
Y tú lo hiciste destruir
Me voy aunque me vuelvo loco
Me separare de ti
Me voy porque lo que me has hecho
No lo voy a resistir
Tantas cosas nos unieron
Y tú lo hiciste destruir
Tantas cosas nos unieron
Y tú lo hiciste destruir
Y me voy
In these few words, I want to express everything. I'm feeling hurt at my worst moment. I'm telling you, today it ends between us. You saw me as an enemy, while I always thought of you as my companion. I'm tired of explaining, I hope you understand. I'm leaving even though it's driving me crazy. I'm separating myself from you because I can't endure what you've done to me. So many things brought us together, and you destroyed them all.
