You should've told me
that you maybe didn't feel like falling in love
I'd have told you
that you should please look somewhere else
And instead you said
that you saw this life with me
and since I did see myself with you
without noticing, I believed in your words
and that's how I fell
If I had known that you wanted to play
that this was just one more adventure
I'd have held back and I wouldn't have given everything from my side
and now that I get it, it's too late, you've already hurt me
If I had known that you wanted to play
that I was only an object of your intimacy
I would've kept the best kisses, those I gave you
for someone sincere that they did matter to, for another person
that did value them
If I had known
I would've liked to be less yours and more mine
my love
but you said
that you saw this life with me
and since I did see myself with you
without noticing, I believed in your words
and that's how I fell
If I had known that you wanted to play
that this was just one more adventure
I'd have held back and I wouldn't have given everything from my side
and now that I get it, it's too late, you've already hurt me
If I had known that you wanted to play
that I was only an object of your intimacy
I would've kept the best kisses, those I gave you
for someone sincere that they did matter to, for another person
that did value them
for another person
that did value me

SONG MEANING

“Me Hubieras Dicho” is Joss Favela’s bittersweet confession of what-ifs. The Mexican singer-songwriter rewinds a failed romance and wonders how different life would be if only his partner had admitted she was not ready for love. Line by line, he paints the picture of a man who believed every promise, offered every kiss, and then discovers he was merely a temporary thrill. The repeated phrase “Si hubiera sabido” (If I had known) becomes a haunting chorus of regret, highlighting how trust can turn into heartbreak when intentions are hidden.

Beyond the sorrow, the song carries a universal lesson: valuing yourself even after someone else does not. Favela’s storytelling invites listeners to reflect on their own relationships, urging them to protect the “best kisses” for someone who truly cares. Wrapped in regional Mexican instrumentation and his emotive voice, the track blends vulnerability with empowerment, making it perfect for both a thoughtful sing-along and an English-learning journey focused on feelings, conditional phrases, and the power of honesty.
