The Lyrics in Spanish
Here are the original lyrics in Spanish:
Lo que alguna vez fue, ya no es
Nada volverá a ser como era ayer
Tú, yo, ni el mar
Mismo no es el mismo de antes
Me acuerdo cuando tú y yo
Ibamos por la playa sin ningún peso
La arena en la piel
Se mezclaba con el sudor
Me acuerdo cuando tú y yo
Sin tanto protocolo, sin nada de eso
Nos besábamos, el mar se encelaba
Queriendo imitar el ruido del viento
Y vuelvo a sentir
Que tengo ganas de verteee
Y vuelvo a sentir
Que tengo ganas de verteee
Lo que alguna vez fue, ya no es
Nada volverá a ser como era ayer
Tú, yo, ni el mar
Mismo no es el mismo de antes
La distancia no me hace bien
Me duele pensar que estás tan lejos
Sin poder tenerte cerca
Aunque sea a escondidas, sin que nadie se entere
Y tú, no sé si piensas en mí
Si te habrás acostado con alguien más
Tú siempre me dices que sí
Pero sé que no es igual
Lo que alguna vez fue, ya no es
Nada volverá a ser como era ayer
Tú, yo, ni el mar
Mismo no es el mismo de antesThe English Translation
Now, let’s dive into the English translation of the lyrics:
What once was, no longer is
Nothing will ever be like it was yesterday
You, me, not even the sea
Are the same as before
I remember when you and I
Walked along the beach without a care
The sand on our skin
Mixed with sweat
I remember when you and I
Without so much protocol, without any of that
We kissed, and the sea got jealous
Trying to imitate the sound of the wind
And I feel again
That I want to see youuu
And I feel again
That I want to see youuu
What once was, no longer is
Nothing will ever be like it was yesterday
You, me, not even the sea
Are the same as before
Distance doesn't sit well with me
It hurts to think that you're so far away
Without being able to have you close
Even in secret, without anyone finding out
And you, I don't know if you think of me
If you've been with someone else
You always tell me you have
But I know it's not the same
What once was, no longer is
Nothing will ever be like it was yesterday
You, me, not even the sea
Are the same as beforeThe Emotional Depth
