Te hubiera conocido un poco antes

I would have met you a little earlier
But I'm with him
It's too late for you to try to make me fall in love
If I'm so faithful to him

I can't be your lover, don't insist
I won't deceive him
Life wanted me to be your friend
And not your woman

If I had met you a little earlier
Or simply fell in love
Because I don't deny that I like you as a man
But it's too late

If I had met you a little earlier
I probably would have fallen in love
But in secret, neither with you nor with anyone
Will I fail him

I would have met you a little earlier
But not now
Loving you is no longer a sign of courage
But of heartbreak

I can't be your lover, don't insist
I won't deceive him
Life wanted me to be your friend
And not your woman

If I had met you a little earlier
I probably would have fallen in love
Because I don't deny that I like you as a man
But it's too late

If I had met you a little earlier
I probably would have fallen in love
But in secret, neither with you nor with anyone
Will I fail him

If I had met you a little earlier
I probably would have fallen in love
Because I don't deny that I like you as a man
But it's too late
