Su Contacto Lyrics in English by 3am, Cry
"Su Contacto" by 3am featuring Cry is a breakup song told from the side of the one who got forgotten fast. The hook is a very modern kind of heartbreak: "Ya no tiene foto su contacto" (Her contact doesn't have a photo anymore). She removed her profile picture, or he deleted it, and that tiny phone detail says the relationship is over. He keeps asking "Qué tan rápido se olvidó de mí" (How fast she forgot me), and blames bad aim: "Cupido no te apuntaba a ti" (Cupid wasn't aiming at you), yet "en mi pecho se sintió el impacto" (in my chest the impact was felt).
The verses are full of everyday Caribbean Spanish worth learning. Words lose their endings the way people actually talk: perdimo' for perdimos, archivao for archivado (archived) and avisao for avisado (told), as in "a mi mente no le han avisao" (nobody told my mind) that getting over her is easy. He misses even "el sonido de tu ringtone" (the sound of your ringtone), and sums up the mismatch with "Por ti yo iba derecho y tú cogiste por la izquierda" (For you I went straight and you took the left). Listen for chamita near the end, a Venezuelan word for a young woman.
