[Verso 1]
[Verse 1]
Yo me sentí tan confiado en tenerte que me descuidé
I felt so confident in having you that I neglected you
Y le presté atención a todo en el mundo menos a ti mujer
And I paid attention to everything in the world except for you, girl
Ahora recuerdo cuando me advertías que estaba fallando
Now I remember when you warned me that I was messing up
Hoy me duelen esas mañanitas que te vi llorando
Today those mornings when I saw you crying hurt me deeply
[Pre-Coro]
[Pre-Chorus]
Perdóname he sido un tonto porque casi te he perdido
Forgive me, I've been a fool because I almost lost you
Sin darme cuenta nuestro amor va mal herido
Without realizing it, our love is badly wounded
Aunque me culpes de esta triste situación
Even if you blame me for this sad situation
[Coro]
[Chorus]
(Culpo a mi mente pero no a mi corazón)
(I blame my mind but not my heart)
Perdóname, soy un payaso que jugó con el destino
Forgive me, I'm a clown who gambled with destiny
Loco chófer que te guió por mal camino
A crazy driver who led you down the wrong road
Aunque me culpes de esta triste situación
Even if you blame me for this sad situation
(Culpo a mi mente pero no a mi corazón)
(I blame my mind but not my heart)

[Verso 2]
[Verse 2]
Yo quisiera borrar mis errores pero es imposible
I wish I could erase my mistakes, but it's impossible
Ay, princesa no mereces tanto daño y lo recibiste
Oh, princess, you didn't deserve so much hurt and yet you endured it
Y yo pensando que era todo un héroe, fui solo un villano
And I thought I was a hero, but I was only a villain
Tanto tiempo llena de silencio y te volvió un volcán, no
So much time bottled up in silence turned you into a volcano, no
[Pre-Coro]
[Pre-Chorus]
Perdóname, he sido un tonto porque casi te he perdido
Forgive me, I've been a fool because I almost lost you
Sin darme cuenta, nuestro amor va mal herido
Without realizing it, our love is badly wounded
Aunque me culpes de esta triste situación
Even if you blame me for this sad situation
[Coro]
[Chorus]
(Culpo a mi mente pero no a mi corazón)
(I blame my mind but not my heart)
Perdóname, soy un payaso que jugó con el destino
Forgive me, I'm a clown who gambled with destiny
Loco chófer que te guió por mal camino
A crazy driver who led you down the wrong road
Aunque me culpes de esta triste situación
Even if you blame me for this sad situation
(Culpo a mi mente pero no a mi corazón)
(I blame my mind but not my heart)

Nunca quise herirte
I never wanted to hurt you
Pero mi mente contradice todo lo que siento
But my mind contradicts everything that I feel
Y culpo a mi mente
And I blame my mind
[Outro]
[Outro]
Perdóname, estoy arrepentido de causarte este dolor
Forgive me, I'm so sorry for causing you this pain
(Aunque me culpes, no seas malita)
(Even if you blame me, don't be cruel)
(Tan solo tú puedes calmar mi corazón) No seas malita
(Only you can soothe my heart) Don't be so cruel
(Aunque me culpes, no seas malita) Ay, mi corazón
(Even if you blame me, don't be cruel) Oh, my heart
(Tan solo un beso que reviva mi ilusión) Dime que sí
(Just one kiss to revive my hope) Say yes
(Aunque me culpes, no seas malita) Regresa a mí
(Even if you blame me, don't be cruel) Come back to me
Que solo tú puedes calmar mi corazón
Because only you can soothe my heart
Perdóname
Forgive me
