Description
Love, which seemed eternal, suddenly ended faster than a moment - and all that remained was the silly habit of checking the time on the frozen hands of the clock. At first - heat, fusion, the desire to be closer than words allow. Then - a crack, and the heart, overheated with feelings, melts, turning to ashes.
Now questions hang in the air, as if someone had turned off the sound: when did it all go away? Why did you let go? Why did you so easily forget your promise? And there are no answers, only bitter irony - it turns out that ‘forever’ sometimes lasts very little time.
Lyrics and translation
Original
¿Por qué ahora querernos es complicado?
Si antes no podíamos estar separados.
Quizás no fue perfecto, pero mi amor por ti era honesto.
Ya no sé si fue por mí o fue por alguien. Hasta tu forma de mirarme la cambiaste.
Y ahora me siento tan tonta, no sé cómo no lo vi antes.
¿Cómo pudiste soltarnos? Si nos costó tanto encontrarnos.
Qué poco duró el para siempre.
Me va a costar mucho poder olvidarnos. Y dime por qué me soltaste.
Dime cuándo dejaste de amarme.
Si te di todo lo que soy, te entregué el corazón, no supiste cuidarme.
Tú y yo nos perdimos.
Ya no es ni la mitad de lo que un día fuimos. De tanto querernos el corazón lo fundimos.
Yo creo que nos fue mal por querer ser más que amigos y cogimos otro camino.
Pero ahora estás por otro lado y no duermo si no te siento.
Tengo el reloj congelado por no querer perder el tiempo con otra que no seas tú, pero es que ya fallamos en el intento. Hace tiempo lo dañamos y eso tú lo sabes, bebé, yo lo siento.
¿Cómo pudiste soltarnos? Si nos costó tanto encontrarnos.
Qué poco duró el para siempre. Me va a costar mucho poder olvidarnos.
Y dime por qué me soltaste.
Dime cuándo dejaste de amarme.
Si te di todo lo que soy, te entregué el corazón, no supiste cuidarme.
No supiste cuidarme cuando más te quise.
Borraste lo que prometiste. Ay, dime cómo fue tan fácil irte.
Oh, no supiste cuidarme cuando más te quise.
Borraste lo que prometiste. Ay, dime cómo fue tan fácil irte.
¿Cómo pudiste soltarnos?
Si nos costó tanto encontrarnos. Qué poco duró el para siempre.
Me va a costar mucho poder olvidarnos. Y dime por qué me soltaste.
Dime cuándo dejaste de amarme.
Si te di todo lo que soy, te entregué el corazón, no supiste cuidarme.
English translation
Why is loving each other complicated now?
If before we couldn't be separated.
Maybe it wasn't perfect, but my love for you was honest.
I no longer know if it was because of me or if it was because of someone. You even changed the way you looked at me.
And now I feel so stupid, I don't know how I didn't see it before.
How could you let us go? It took us so long to find each other.
How short forever lasted.
It's going to be very difficult for me to forget us. And tell me why you let me go.
Tell me when you stopped loving me.
If I gave you everything I am, I gave you my heart, you didn't know how to take care of me.
You and I got lost.
It is no longer even half of what we once were. We melt our hearts from loving each other so much.
I think it went wrong for us because we wanted to be more than friends and we took another path.
But now you're on the other side and I won't sleep if I don't feel you.
My watch is frozen because I don't want to waste time with anyone other than you, but we already failed in the attempt. We damaged it a long time ago and you know that, baby, I'm sorry.
How could you let us go? It took us so long to find each other.
How short forever lasted. It's going to be very difficult for me to forget us.
And tell me why you let me go.
Tell me when you stopped loving me.
If I gave you everything I am, I gave you my heart, you didn't know how to take care of me.
You didn't know how to take care of me when I loved you the most.
You deleted what you promised. Oh, tell me how it was so easy to leave.
Oh, you didn't know how to take care of me when I loved you the most.
You deleted what you promised. Oh, tell me how it was so easy to leave.
How could you let us go?
It took us so long to find each other. How short forever lasted.
It's going to be very difficult for me to forget us. And tell me why you let me go.
Tell me when you stopped loving me.
If I gave you everything I am, I gave you my heart, you didn't know how to take care of me.
