Lyrics and translation Café Quijano - Nunca supe

Nunca supe

Nunca supe entenderte, he buscado mil caminos
Todos ellos imposibles, no he logrado encontrarte.
He cuidado cada letra escrita, las palabras dichas.
He respetado tus premisas.

Lo he tratado, no has querido,
Lo he intentado pero no he sabido.

Nunca tuve suerte en las palabras.
Entenderte fue lo que intentaba.
Nunca hiciste nada que sirviera

Para ver cómo lograr que la distancia no existiera.

Lo he tratado, no has querido,
Lo he intentado pero no he sabido.
Se me agota el alma,
Se me agota el tiempo y hasta el sentimiento.

Nunca tuve suerte en las palabras.
Entenderte fue lo que intentaba.
Nunca hiciste nada que sirviera
Para ver cómo lograr que la distancia no existiera.

Nunca tuve suerte en las palabras.
Entenderte fue lo que intentaba.
Nunca hiciste nada que sirviera
Para ver cómo lograr que la distancia no existiera.
Nunca supe...

I Never Knew

I never could understand you; I’ve sought a thousand paths,
All of them impossible, I’ve failed to find you.
I’ve cared for every written letter, every spoken word,
I’ve respected your premises.

I’ve tried, but you haven’t wanted to,
I’ve tried but I haven’t known how.

I was never lucky with words.
Understanding you was what I was trying to do.
You never did anything that would serve

To see how to make distance cease to exist.

I’ve tried, but you haven’t wanted to,
I’ve tried but I haven’t known how.
My soul is growing weary,
My time is dwindling, and even my feelings.

I was never lucky with words.
Understanding you was what I was trying to do.
You never did anything that would serve
To see how to make distance cease to exist.

I was never lucky with words.
Understanding you was what I was trying to do.
You never did anything that would serve
To see how to make distance cease to exist.
I never knew...
