Te hubieras ido antes, por Julión Álvarez y Su Norteño Banda
La letra:
No
existe amor perfecto
empiezo a pensar que
esto del amor es una fantasía
y no me la creo
que tu ya no te acuerdes
de todas las veces
que te hice.. mía
empiezo a pensar que
esto del amor es una fantasía
y no me la creo
que tu ya no te acuerdes
de todas las veces
que te hice.. mía
y
todavía me exiges
que olvide tu sonrisa
y borre de mi mente todas tus caricias
me subes hasta el cielo
y luego caigo al suelo
porque tu te vas cuando mas te quería
que olvide tu sonrisa
y borre de mi mente todas tus caricias
me subes hasta el cielo
y luego caigo al suelo
porque tu te vas cuando mas te quería
te
hubieras ido antes
por que no te marchaste
cuando aun no eras tan indispensable?
me pides que te olvide
cuando hiciste todo para enamorarme
aun que estabas jugando dime
por que diablos me obligaste a amarte
y luego te alejaste?
por que no te marchaste
cuando aun no eras tan indispensable?
me pides que te olvide

aun que estabas jugando dime
por que diablos me obligaste a amarte
y luego te alejaste?
te
hubieras ido antes
no creo que merezca que
mi corazón tires a la basura
me suena tan ilógico
que ahora digas que no fue tu culpa
si no te interesaba pa' que me besabas
con tanta dulzura y con tanta ternura
no creo que merezca que
mi corazón tires a la basura
me suena tan ilógico
que ahora digas que no fue tu culpa
si no te interesaba pa' que me besabas
con tanta dulzura y con tanta ternura
te
hubieras ido antes
y así ya no tendría
estas ganas de rogarte

La traducción al inglés:
Perfect love
does not exist
I start to
think this about love
That it is a
fantasy
And I can’t
believe
that you
don’t remember
all the
times I made you mine
And still
you ask me
to forget
your smile
and erase
from my mind all of your caresses
You raise me
up to heaven
and later I
fall to the ground
because you
go when I love/want you most
If only you
had left earlier
Why didn’t
you leave
before you
became so indispensible?
You ask me
to forget you
when you did
everything to get me to fall in love with you
even though
you were just playing around, tell me
why the h***
would you make me love you
and then go
away?
If only you
had left earlier
I don’t
think I deserve to have
my heart
thrown in the trash
It sounds so
illogical to me
that you
would say now that it’s not your fault
If you
weren’t interested in me why did you kiss me
with such
sweetness and with such tenderness?
If only you
had left earlier
and that way
I wouldn’t have
these
desires to beg you (to change your mind)
and still
you demand
that I
forget your smile
and erase
from my mind all of your caresses
you raise me
up to the heavens
and I fall
down to the ground
because you
are leaving
right when I
want/love you most
If only you
had left earlier
Why didn’t
you leave
before you
became so indispensible?
You ask me
to forget you
when you did
everything to get me to fall in love with you
even though
you were just playing around, tell me
why the h***

Negatives and Questions in Spanish and English
No entiendo = I do not understand
Why in English do we use four words, while in Spanish we use only two?
To negate a sentence in Spanish, typically we add 'no' before the verb.
Examples in Spanish:
Voy a la escuela hoy. (affirmative)
No voy a la escuela hoy. (negative)
Como una hamburguesa. (affirmative)
No como una hamburguesa. (negative)
Fácil, ¿no? ... Easy, isn't it?
Examples in English:
I am going to school today. (affirmative)
I am not going to school today. (negative)
I am eating a hamburger. (affirmative)
I am not eating a hamburger. (negative)
Un poco complicado, ¿no? ... A bit complicated, isn't it? (Why do we use 'not' instead of 'no', for example?)
Consider how many different sentences in English can be expressed with two simple words in Spanish:
No estudia = She does not study. / She doesn't study.
No estudia = She is not studying. / She isn't studying.
No estudia = She is not going to study. / She isn't going to study.
No estudia = She will not study. / She won't study.
¿No estudia? = Does she not study? / Doesn't she study?
¿No estudia? = Is she not studying? / Isn't she studying?
¿No estudia? = Is she not going to study? / Isn't she going to study?
¿No estudia? = Will she not study? / Won't she study?
While Spanish is simple in both negation and question-formation, English is likely to be less ambiguous.
NEGATIVES IN SPANISH? Simply add no.
NEGATIVES IN ENGLISH? Use one of the following: don't, doesn't, isn't, aren't, am not
QUESTION FORMATION IN SPANISH? Simply add question marks: ¿?
QUESTION FORMATION IN ENGLISH? Add auxiliary verb (do/does) for Yes/No questions, and switch order of subject and verb: You are --> Are you ...? / You do --> Do you?
Auxiliary Verbs and Words in English:
These are meaningless "helper" words used for forming questions and negatives in English. DO/DOES/DID and HAS/HAVE/HAD are the most common auxiliary verbs.
Examples:
Do ---- you ---- sing?
(Aux) (Subj) (Verb)
Have ---- you ---- eaten?
(Aux) (Subj) (verb, past participle)
Auxiliary Verbs and Words in Spanish:
Spanish doesn't use auxiliary words in questions, only in present perfect and past perfect compound verbs.
Examples:
¿ Has --------------- viajado --------------- a ---------- España ?
(Aux-You) (verb, past participle) (preposition) (location)
He ------- comido.
(Aux-I) (verb, past participle)
