Te Perdí Lyrics in English by La K'onga

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Te Perdí by La K'onga from Spanish to English.
No te deseo mal
I don't wish you ill
Porque te hayas marchado
Because you left
A lo mejor de plano yo no era el indicado
Maybe I just wasn't the right one
Se fue la posibilidad de estar siempre a tu lado
The chance to always be by your side is gone
Y no pierdas el tiempo
And don't waste your time
Tratando de olvidarme
Trying to forget me
Porque lo que vivimos no se olvida en una tarde
Because what we lived isn't forgotten in an afternoon
Y ya tarde será para recuperarme
And it'll be too late to get me back
Te van a platicar de mi
They're going to tell you about me
Y van a preguntar también
And they're going to ask too
Que fue lo que pasó si se miraban tan felices
What happened if you both looked so happy
Y se mojarán tus ojos, tus ojitos hermosos
And your eyes will get wet, your beautiful eyes
Te van a platicar de mi
They're going to tell you about me
Las noches y el sillón aquel
The nights and that armchair
Que guardan los secretos que solo tú y yo sabemos
That hold the secrets only you and I know
Y se mojarán tus ojos, tus ojitos hermosos
And your eyes will get wet, your beautiful eyes
Y aunque quieras volver, ya no vas a poder
And even if you want to come back, you won't be able to
Yo ya te perdí la fe
I've already lost faith in you
Te van a platicar de mi
They're going to tell you about me
Y van a preguntar también
And they're going to ask too
Que fue lo que pasó si se miraban tan felices
What happened if you both looked so happy
Y se mojarán tus ojos, tus ojitos hermosos
And your eyes will get wet, your beautiful eyes
Te van a platicar de mi
They're going to tell you about me
Las noches y el sillón aquel
The nights and that armchair
Que guardan los secretos que solo tú y yo sabemos
That hold the secrets only you and I know
Y se mojarán tus ojos, tus ojitos hermosos
And your eyes will get wet, your beautiful eyes
Y aunque quieras volver, ya no vas a poder
And even if you want to come back, you won't be able to
Yo ya te perdí la fe
I've already lost faith in you
