He says, "Siempre digo que contigo no / Y ese no, apenas me llama, se convierte en sí" [I always say no to you / And that no, as soon as you call me, turns into a yes]. It's a classic push-and-pull, where his heart just won't listen to his head.

He even built her up, saying, "Yo te hice orgulloso el pedestal con el que brillas" [I proudly made you the pedestal you shine with], and he thinks that might have actually hurt her.

Well, she was drunk: "La segunda yo estaba borracha / Y no supe qué hice con mi vida" [The second one I was drunk / And I didn't know what I did with my life]. She promises to change, swearing off alcohol because "El licor me perturba la mente" [Liquor disturbs my mind].

It's a fun, slightly rebellious take on falling for someone you shouldn't, with them basically saying, "Ya lo que pasó, ya pasó y si ahora vuelve a pasar, Qué nos pasa si así es nuestro amor" [What happened, happened, and if it happens again now, what happens to us if that's how our love is?].
