Me Voy Lyrics

Porque no
supiste entender a mi corazón
lo que había en el
porque no
tuviste el valor de ver quien soy

porque no
escuchas lo que esta tan cerca de ti
sólo el ruido de afuera y yo
que estoy a un lado desaparezco para ti

No voy a llorar y decir que no merezco esto
porque es probable que lo merezco pero no lo quiero
por eso me voy
que lastima pero adios
me despido de ti y me voy
que lastima pero adios
me despedio de ti

Porque se que me espera algo mejor
alguien que sepa darme amor
de ese que endulza la sal
y hace que salga el sol
yo que pense nunca me iría de ti
que es amor del bueno de toda la vida
pero hoy
entendí que no hay suficiente para los dos

No voy a llorar y decir que no merezco esto
porque es probable que lo merezco pero no lo quiero
por eso me voy que lastima pero adios
me despido de ti y me voy
que lastima pero adios
me despedio de ti

Me voy que lastima pero adios
me despido de ti y me voy
que lastima pero adios
me despido de ti y me voy
que lastima pero adios
me despido de ti
me voy
que lastima pero adios
me despido de ti
me voy

This song is so amazing. I can't believe nobody has commented on it yet. It's so beautiful that anyone should be able to appreciate it whether they understand it or not.

Cover art for Me Voy lyrics by Julieta Venegas

because you didn't understand what's in my heart. because you didn't have the courage to see who i am.

because you don't listen to the things closest to you. you only listen to the noises outside. And i, the person right next to you, disappear completely.

But i'm not gonna cry and say that i don't deserve this. Because maybe i do, but still, i don't want this. So i'm leaving.

Too bad, but good bye. I'm leaving you. Fare thee well.

because i know someone better awaits me. someone that knows how to love. someone that will turn salt into sugar, and night into day.

You see, I thought i would never leave you. i thought our love was good and ever lasting. but now i understand that's not gonna be enough for us.

So i'm not gonna cry and say that i don't deserve this, because i probably do. Still, i don't want it, so i'm leaving.

Too bad, but good bye. i'm leaving you, fare thee well.

This obviously isn't a literal translation. I want to translate the emotions (i think) she conveyed through american phrasings. I'm only learning spanish and i want to relate the lyrics with the language i'm used to hearing and thinking. if i would've directly translate it, it would've sounded too rigid for me.

The song is particularly beautiful because of the melody. the waltz-y rithym lends a romantic feel, while the actual lyrics can be quite cold. The chorus may lead you into believing that she still misses him, because maybe the relationship isn't that bad. But as she mentions, she believes she can find someone better, someone who's ideal, so she isn't settling and she isn't looking back.

My Interpretation

"Porque se que me espera algo mejor alguien que sepa darme amor de ese que endulza la sal y hace que salga el sol"

My favorite line in this song, correctly translated saying "because i know, someone better is waiting for me someone who knows how to give me love the kind the sweetens salt and makes the sun come out"
