Translation of the song lyrics Me Dediqué a Perderte - Alejandro Fernandez

Me Dediqué a Perderte (original)

¿Por qué no te bese en el alma cuando aún podía?
¿Por qué no te abracé la vida cuando la tenía?
Y yo que no me daba cuenta cuánto te dolía
Y yo que no sabía el daño que me hacía
¿Cómo es que nunca me fije que ya no sonreías?
Y que antes de apagar la luz, ya nada me decías
Que aquel amor se te escapo, que había llegado el día
Que ya no me sentías, que ya ni te dolía
Me dedique a perderte
Y me ausente en momentos que se han ido para siempre
Me dedique a no verte
Y me encerré en mi mundo y no pudiste detenerme
Y me alejé mil veces
Y cuando regresé te había perdido para siempre
Y quise detenerte
Entonces descubrí que ya mirabas diferente
Me dedique a perderte
Me dedique a perderte
¿Por qué no te llené de mí cuando aún había tiempo?
¿Por qué no pude comprender lo que hasta ahora entiendo?
Que fuiste todo para mí y que yo estaba ciego
Te dejé para luego, este maldito ego
Me dedique a perderte
Y me ausente en momentos que se han ido para siempre
Me dedique a no verte
Y me encerré en mi mundo y no pudiste detenerme
Y me alejé mil veces
Y cuando regresé te había perdido para siempre
Y quise detenerte
Entonces descubrí que ya mirabas diferente
Me dedique a perderte
Me dedique a perderte
Me dedique a perderte
Me dedique a perderte, amor

Me Dediqué a Perderte (translation)

Why didn't I kiss you on the soul when I still could?
Why didn't I embrace life when I had it?
And I did not realize how much it hurt you
And I did not know the damage it did to me
How come I never noticed that you weren't smiling anymore?
And that before you turned off the light, you didn't tell me anything
That love escaped you, that the day had come
That you no longer felt me, that it didn't even hurt you anymore
I set out to lose you
And I'm gone in moments that are gone forever
I dedicated myself to not seeing you
And I locked myself in my world and you couldn't stop me
And I walked away a thousand times
And when I came back I had lost you forever
and I wanted to stop you
Then I discovered that you already looked different
I set out to lose you
I set out to lose you
Why didn't I fill you with me when there was still time?
Why couldn't I understand what I understand until now?
That you were everything to me and that I was blind
I left you for later, this damn ego
I set out to lose you
And I'm gone in moments that are gone forever
I dedicated myself to not seeing you
And I locked myself in my world and you couldn't stop me
And I walked away a thousand times
And when I came back I had lost you forever
and I wanted to stop you
Then I discovered that you already looked different
I set out to lose you
I set out to lose you
I set out to lose you
I dedicated myself to losing you, love
