Verse 1
I gave you all my love and more
And you don't even recognize what love is
I put myself ready at your feet
And you've only paid me with contempt, but now see
Chorus 1
That if I once said I loved you, today I regret it
If I once said I loved you
I don't know what I was thinking, I was crazy
If I once said I loved you
And that I would give my life for you
If I once said I loved you, I won't do it again
That mistake is a thing of the past
Or: That mistake is a thing of yesterday
Verse 2
I know that one day you will come back
And you will regret everything
I put myself ready at your feet
And you've only paid me with contempt, but now see
Chorus 2
That if I once said I loved you, today I regret it
If I once said I loved you
I don't know what I was thinking, I was crazy
If I once said I loved you
And that I would give my life for you
If I once said I loved you, I won't do it again
That mistake is a thing of the past

SONG MEANING

“Si Una Vez” is Carin León’s fiery declaration of never again. Picture someone who gave every drop of affection—“todo mi amor y más”—only to receive indifference in return. In this Regional Mexican anthem, the singer looks back at his past devotion with a mix of regret and newfound strength, confessing that he must have been “loco” to ever promise his life for that love. Each catchy verse turns heartbreak into resolve, showing listeners that recognizing a toxic relationship is the first step toward reclaiming their self-worth.

Instead of wallowing, Carin flips the script: he predicts the ex will someday regret their coldness, while he proudly vows he “no lo vuelve a hacer.” The song’s vibrant brass, guitars, and León’s gritty vocals transform pain into empowerment, making it the perfect soundtrack for anyone ready to shout, “That mistake was yesterday—bring on tomorrow!”
