Nomás por tu culpa
Juan Valentin
Just because of you
What sadness I carry inside
that neither wine nor anything calms
I'm suffering and I can't find a remedy
to heal what I carry in my soul.
Your memory has me in chains
and your deceit has me badly wounded
because you mocked me to my face
while I was sincere with you.
Just because of you, just because of you
today my life is bitter
you paid me with the worst coin
you gave yourself to another when I loved you the most.
Just because of you, just because of you
my boat has lost its course
I curse your portrait among drinks
and drown your memory in the sea of my forgetfulness.
I don't know why I had this luck
to meet you that day on my path
or why I fell into your arms
to give you my love, my affection.
If truly you're not worth it
and you've never understood love
may God make you pay in life
for the wrongs you've done to me.
Just because of you...
