Un Buen Perdedor – Lyrics Meaning in English – Franco de Vita
This song is about a man sacrificing the love he holds for a woman because she has found someone better. He has gracefully accepted his loss as he wants her to be with the best man for her. He was hoping she would stay, but even though she’s not, he has accepted his defeat.
Singer: Franco de Vita
Sé que piensas marcharte ya lo sé
Y no te detendré, haz lo que tu quieras
Sin embargo recuerda que yo estaré aquí
En el mismo lugar y si solo tienes ganas de hablar
Con gusto escucharé
I know you’re thinking of leaving I already know
And I won’t stop you, do whatever you want
In fact remember that I’ll be here
In the same place and if you only feel like talking
I’ll listen to you with pleasure
Y si él supo darte mas amor
Supo llenarte mas que yo
Claro que se perder
Claro que se perder
And if he knew how to give you more love
Knew how to fill you more than me
Of course I know how to lose
Of course I know how to lose
No tienes porque disimular
Esas lagrimas están de más
Si tienes que irte vete ya
You don’t have to hide
These tears are for more
If you have to leave go already
Sin embargo esperaba
Que te quedaras pero
El agua hay que dejarla correr
Mientras yo me tragaba palabras
Que no pude decir
In fact I was hoping
That you would stay but
We have to let the water flow
While I swallowed words
That I couldn’t say
Y si el viento hoy sopla a tu favor
Yo no te guardaré rencor
And if the wind blows in your favour
I won’t hold a grudge against you
Claro que se perder
No será la primera vez
Hoy te vas tu, mañana me iré yo
Seré un buen perdedor
El mundo no cambiará
Alguien sin duda ocupe tu lugar
Of course I know how to lose
It wouldn’t be the first time
Today you leave, tomorrow I’ll go
I’ll be a good loser
The world won’t change
Someone no doubt will occupy your place
Sin embargo esperaba
Que te quedaras pero
El agua hay que dejarla correr
Mientras yo me tragaba palabras
Que no pude decir
In fact I was hoping
That you would stay but
We have to let the water flow
While I swallowed words
That I couldn’t say
Y si el viento hoy sopla a tu favor
Yo no te guardaré rencor
And if the wind blows in your favour
I won’t hold a grudge against you
Claro que se perder
No será la primera vez
Hoy te vas tu, mañana me iré yo
Seré un buen perdedor
El mundo no cambiará
Alguien sin duda ocupe tu lugar
Of course I know how to lose
It wouldn’t be the first time
Today you leave, tomorrow I’ll go
I’ll be a good loser
The world won’t change
Someone no doubt will occupy your place
Oh seré un buen perdedor
El mundo no cambiará
Alguien sin duda ocupe tu lugar
Oh I’ll be a good loser
The world won’t change
Someone no doubt will occupy your place
