Verse 1
You know better than anyone that you failed me
That you forgot what you promised
You know for sure that you deceived me
Even if nobody loved you the same as me
I'm full of reasons to despise you
And nevertheless I want you to be happy
Chorus 1
That there in the other world
Instead of hell, you find glory
And may a cloud from your memory erase me
Tell whoever asks you that I didn't love you
Tell him that I was cheating on you, that I was the worst
Blame me for whatever happens
Cover your back with my pain
Chorus 2
That there in the other world
Instead of hell, you find glory
And may a cloud from your memory erase me
Tell whoever asks you that I didn't love you
Tell him that I was cheating on you, that I was the worst
Blame me for whatever happens
Cover your back with my pain
Chorus 3
That there in the other world
Instead of hell, you find glory
And may a cloud from your memory erase me
And that there in the other world
Instead of hell, you find glory
And may a cloud from your memory erase me

SONG MEANING

Luis Miguel’s “Échame A Mi La Culpa” is a bittersweet pop gem about self-sacrifice in the face of betrayal. The narrator knows his partner has broken her promises and cheated, yet instead of lashing out he offers her a clean slate: “Tell everyone it was all my fault.” By volunteering to be the villain, he protects her reputation and hopes she can find “glory” rather than “hell” in the next chapter of her life.

The song blends heartbreak with generosity, capturing that complicated moment when love lingers even after trust is shattered. It shows a proud yet tender soul who would rather swallow pain than see his former love suffer. In just a few verses, Luis Miguel turns blame into a gift, proving that sometimes the deepest love is the one that lets go gracefully.
