Intro 1
Tell me the same old thing again
That you love me but can't have me
I've done the impossible to make myself strong
And even if it's the same path only
Come back, I just want you to try it
Don't tell me that now you need luck
Do I really need to remind you
That things that you care for aren't thrown away suddenly?
Verse 1
If it never hurts you, it won't make you happy
It hurts more to have you than to let you go
I prefer an apology over not feeling anything
Staying isn't always worth more than running away
I don't expect anything, especially not from myself
They told me to go for everything and I went for you
Until what moment does one learn?
And until when will time be wasted just to keep going?
They say that the good takes time and I've been waiting for so long
That the good doesn't want to come
They say that there are appropriate words
Just as there are people who don't know any better, and that's just how they are
We call anything advice
Until I realized that even someone who loves you can lie to you
Since everyone advises you enough
So that you are what they want but not happy
Chorus 1
Tell me the same old thing again
That you love me but can't have me
I've done the impossible to make myself strong
And even if it's the same path only
Come back, I just want you to try it
Don't tell me that now you need luck
Do I really need to remind you
That things that you care for aren't thrown away suddenly?
Verse 2
You hurled my memory into the past
I miss you because nobody compares to you
When I should have distanced myself, I fell more in love
Because I never learned how to forget you
If you were mine, if I was yours, why?
Why do you distance yourself? Why the pride? I don't know
I doubt that time can erase it this time
The feeling of what could have been but wasn't
Or: The feeling of what could have been but wasn't
Now I'm aware that there are paths that lead to others
And there are people who end up with others just because
Now I realize that there are problems
That I solve for so many people but never solve for myself
How beautiful it is to see that everything goes well
But even seeing it in a good light isn't the way to see you
The world has too many broken people
And it truly needs strong people who know how to unite
Chorus 2
Tell me the same old thing again
That you love me but you can't have me
I've done my best to make myself strong
And even if it's the same path only
Come back, I just want you to try it
Don't tell me that now you need luck
What do you really need to remind you
That things that you care for aren't thrown away suddenly?
Chorus 3
Tell me the same old thing again
That you love me but you can't have me
I've done my best to make myself strong
And even if it's the same path only
Come back, I just want you to try it
Don't tell me that now you need luck
What do you really need to remind you
That things that you care for aren't thrown away suddenly?

Did you like this lyrics translation?

orgullo — pride

Orgullo means "pride," but in this song, it carries a heavy emotional charge. Sebastián Yatra questions why it's the reason for separation, singing "¿Por qué el orgullo? No sé" (Why the pride? I don't know).

This word feels raw and authentic here because it points to the stubbornness and self-love that can destroy a beautiful relationship. It's not a simple, everyday word in this context; it's the painful answer to the song's central mystery of loss.

Have you ever stayed stuck on someone who tells you they love you, yet refuses to be with you? Colombian pop singer Sebastián Yatra and Spanish artist Beret build this entire track around that exact, maddening contradiction. The chorus hits you right in the chest with the plea: "Vuelve a decirme lo de siempre / Que me quieres pero no puedes tenerme" ("Come back and tell me the usual / That you love me but you can't have me"). It is a song about someone pleading for one more chance ("sólo quiero que lo intentes" ["I only want you to try"]), while dropping some remarkably sharp relationship advice: "las cosas que se cuidan no se tiran de repente" ("things you care for aren't thrown away suddenly").

Beyond the plea to return, the lyrics dig into the bitter thoughts you have while overthinking alone at night. Beret delivers some wonderfully blunt truths about life and bad advice, noting that "hasta quien te quiere te puede mentir" ("even someone who loves you can lie to you") to keep you pleasing others instead of being happy. Watch out for the colloquial phrase "ve a por todo" ("go for it all"), which leads into the singer's regretful twist: "y fui por ti" ("and I went for you"). You also hear the street contraction "to' va bien" (short for "todo va bien", meaning "everything's going well"). It is honest, a little stubborn, and painfully relatable if you have ever struggled to let someone go.
