Así fue [English translation]

Forgive me if I'm making you cry,

Forgive me if I'm making you suffer

But, it's out of my hands...

But, it's out of my hands!

I've fallen in love...

I've fallen in love...

I am in love...

Forgive me if I'm causing you pain,

Forgive me if, today, I'm bidding you farewell;

How could I tell him that I love you?

How could I tell him that I love you

After he has asked me

And I have answered "no"?

I have told him "no"...

I'm being honest with both him and yourself:

I love him and I have forgotten all about you.

If you want to,

We can be friends:

I will help you to forget the past!

Stop holding on to the past!

Stop holding on to

Something that's impossible!

Stop hurting yourself

And stop hurting me...

Aaah...

You know very well

That this isn't my fault;

You left without telling me a single word

And, even though I cried like never before,

I was still in love with you.

But you left

And you never told me

That you'd be back!

And, without much ado,

I don't know why...

But this is how it happened...

Thus it happened...

I wished you the best of lucks,

I was determined not to talk to you or see you

And today, after you've returned

As you can see, there's nothing:

I cannot and must not love you!

I don't love you anymore!

I've fallen in love

With a divine being;

A kind lover

Who has taught me

To forget

And forgive...

I'm being honest with both him and yourself:

I love him and I have forgotten all about you.

If you want to,

We can be friends:

I will help you to forget the past!

Stop holding on to the past!

Do not hold on anymore

To something that's impossible!

Stop hurting yourself

And stop hurting me...

Aaah...

Aaaah...
