Lyrics and translation Alejandro Fernandez - Me Dediqué a Perderte

Me Dediqué a Perderte

¿Por qué no te besé en el alma cuando aún podía?
¿Por qué no te abracé la vida cuando la tenía?
Y yo que no me daba cuenta cuánto te dolía
Y yo que no sabía el daño que me hacía

¿Cómo es que nunca me fijé que ya no sonreías?
Y que antes de apagar la luz, ya nada me decías
Que aquel amor se te escapó que había llegado el día
Que ya no me sentías, que ya ni te dolía

Me dediqué a perderte
Y me ausenté en momentos que se han ido para siempre
Me dediqué a no verte
Y me encerré en mi mundo y no pudiste detenerme

Y me alejé mil veces
Y cuando regresé te había perdido para siempre
Y quise detenerte
Y entonces descubrí que ya mirabas diferente
Me dediqué a perderte
Me dediqué a perderte

¿Por qué no te llené de mí cuando aún había tiempo?
¿Por qué no pude comprender lo que hasta ahora entiendo?
Que fuiste todo para mí y que yo estaba ciego
Te dejé para luego
Este maldito ego, mmh

Me dediqué a perderte
Y me ausenté en momentos que se han ido para siempre
Me dediqué a no verte
Y me encerré en mi mundo y no pudiste detenerme

Y me alejé mil veces
Y cuando regresé te había perdido para siempre
Y quise detenerte
Entonces descubrí que ya mirabas diferente

Me dediqué a perderte
Me dediqué a perderte

I Dedicated Myself to Losing You

Why didn't I kiss your soul when I still could?
Why didn't I embrace your life when I had it?
And I, who didn't realize how much you were hurting
And I, who didn't know the damage I was doing

How come I never noticed that you no longer smiled?
And that before turning off the light, you said nothing to me anymore
That that love escaped you, that the day had come
That you no longer felt me, that it didn't even hurt you anymore

I dedicated myself to losing you
And I was absent in moments that are gone forever
I dedicated myself to not seeing you
And I locked myself in my world and you couldn't stop me

And I walked away a thousand times
And when I came back, I had lost you forever
And I wanted to stop you
And then I discovered that you already looked at me differently
I dedicated myself to losing you
I dedicated myself to losing you

Why didn't I fill you with myself when there was still time?
Why couldn't I understand what I understand now?
That you were everything to me and that I was blind
I left you for later
This damn ego, mmh

I dedicated myself to losing you
And I was absent in moments that are gone forever
I dedicated myself to not seeing you
And I locked myself in my world and you couldn't stop me

And I walked away a thousand times
And when I came back, I had lost you forever
And I wanted to stop you
Then I discovered that you already looked at me differently

I dedicated myself to losing you
I dedicated myself to losing you
