Lyrics and translation Carlos Vives - La Historia




La Historia
The Story
Es una historia que... (bis)
It's a story that... (repeat)
Es una historia que, es una historia que
It's a story that, it's a story that
Me duele repetir porque es sentimental
It hurts me to repeat because it's sentimental
Todo mi corazón se lo entregué
I gave her my whole heart
Y ella se complació en tratarlo mal (bis)
And she took pleasure in treating it badly (repeat)
Si el corazón se viera, si el corazón se viera
If the heart could be seen, if the heart could be seen
Ella pudiera ver como lo tengo yo
She would be able to see how I have it
Me pediría llorando que le diera
She would ask me, crying, to give her
Por toda su maldad el perdón de Dios
For all her evil, God's forgiveness
Yo no puedo olvidar a esa mujer
I can't forget that woman
Que me hizo tanto tiempo padecer
Who made me suffer for so long
Yo no puedo olvidar aquel amor
I can't forget that love
Que me dejó sangrando el corazón (bis)
That left my heart bleeding (repeat)
Porque un amor que sangra no se olvida
Because a love that bleeds is not forgotten
Porque deja en el alma una onda herida
Because it leaves a deep wound in the soul
Yo no puedo negar, yo no puedo negar
I can't deny it, I can't deny it
Que con mucho dolor recuerdo a esa mujer
That it is with great pain that I remember that woman
Nunca podré olvidar aquél amor
I can never forget that love
Que me hizo tanto tiempo padecer (bis)
That made me suffer for so long (repeat)
Es una historia que, es una historia que
It's a story that, it's a story that
Me duele repetir porque es sentimental
It hurts me to repeat because it's sentimental
Todo mi corazón se lo entregué
I gave her my whole heart
Y ella se complació en tratarlo mal (bis)
And she took pleasure in treating it badly (repeat)
Yo no puedo olvidar a esa mujer
I can't forget that woman
Que me hizo tanto tiempo padecer
Who made me suffer for so long
Yo no puedo olvidar aquel amor
I can't forget that love
Que me dejó sangrando el corazón (bis)
That left my heart bleeding (repeat)
Porque un amor que sangra no se olvida
Because a love that bleeds is not forgotten
Porque deja en el alma una onda herida
Because it leaves a deep wound in the soul
