Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Como Lo Hice Yo by Matisse from Spanish to English.
Mejor cerrar los ojos cuando tú pasaste
Better close my eyes when you passed by
Y abrirlos la primera vez que me besaste
And open them the first time you kissed me
Pa ver tus intenciones y tomar precauciones
To see your intentions and take precautions
Decirle al corazón que no te necesita
Tell my heart that it doesn't need you
Pero no me ayudaste siendo tan bonita
But you didn't help me by being so beautiful
Andaba distraído y de haberlo sabido
I was distracted and if I had known
No estaría sufriendo como estoy sufriendo ahora
I wouldn't be suffering like I am now
Lo que tú me hiciste fue un abuso a mi persona
What you did to me was an abuse to my person
Yo tan inocente que jamás tomaba
I was so innocent, I never used to take
Ahora este dolor no me lo quita nada
Now this pain can't be taken away from me
Y esos ojos que te vieron ahora nomás lloran
And these eyes that saw you are now just crying
Da coraje que este amor por ti no me abandona
It's infuriating that this love for you doesn't leave me
Y el que traiga ganas de perderse en el alcohol
And whoever feels like getting lost in alcohol
Que se enrede entre tus brazos como lo hice yo
Let them get tangled in your arms like I did
Y esto es Matisse
And this is Matisse
Y su compa Carín León, ayayay
And his buddy Carín León, ayayay
Paseando con el wey que vino a reemplazarme
Walking with the guy who came to replace me
Quisiera tener chance de poder contarle
I wish I had a chance to tell him
Que busque otro camino, si a mí me hubieran dicho
To find another path, if someone had told me
No estaría sufriendo como estoy sufriendo ahora
I wouldn't be suffering like I am now
Lo que tú me hiciste fue un abuso a mi persona
What you did to me was an abuse to my person
Yo tan inocente y que jamás tomaba
I was so innocent and I never used to take
Ahora este dolor no me lo quita nada
Now this pain can't be taken away from me
Y estos ojos que te vieron ahora nomás lloran
And these eyes that saw you are now just crying
Da coraje que este amor por ti no me abandona
It's infuriating that this love for you doesn't leave me
Y el que traiga ganas de perderse en el alcohol
And whoever feels like getting lost in alcohol
Que se enrede entre tus brazos como lo hice yo
Let them get tangled in your arms like I did
