Por Amarte Tanto Lyrics in English Melendi

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Por Amarte Tanto by Melendi from Spanish to English.
I don't want to daydream again
Nor to see an oasis in the desert of your heart
I am just a pawn to you
And sometimes I scream to the sky for your hair
I'm dying inside
The silence of your heart kills me
And sometimes the night falls and I stay awake
Almost at the same time that I lose sleep
For love
And for loving you so much
I die
I don't want to go back to illusions
They are like mirages that make me see you
The way I want
And reality isn't like that
No matter how much I want to change I can't
You've lied to me so much
You've dried my tears
You have no forgiveness
You grabbed my foot when I gave you my hand
You broke my life
You opened a wound in me
And you poured alcohol on me
And for loving you so much
I die
I always forgave you
Because before it was easy
When you love someone
You forgive them just like that
But now that my love
Is so deteriorated
Now that the champagnes
Taste like turpentine to me
I don't want to see you near the bottom of my glass
The closest to my place you'll get is the elevator
I don't want to see you near my clown nose
I won't be your punching bag anymore
Your doormat, your jester
I always forgave you
Because before it was easy
When you love someone
You forgive them just like that
But now that my love
Is so deteriorated
Now that the champagnes
Taste like turpentine to me
I don't want to see you near the bottom of my glass
The closest to my place you'll get is the elevator
I don't want to see you near my clown nose
I won't be your punching bag anymore
Your doormat, your jester

SONG MEANING

“Por Amarte Tanto” is Melendi’s fiery confession about loving someone who only gives pain in return. The singer begins by admitting that he fell for mirages — seeing an oasis in a desert-cold heart. He feels like a mere pawn, screaming to the sky for a single strand of her affection, yet silence is all he gets. The more he forgives, the deeper the wound grows, until even champagne tastes like paint thinner and his sleepless nights pile up.

In the second half, the tone flips from pleading to powerful self-defence. Melendi lists vivid boundaries: he does not want her near the bottom of his glass or the elevator to his door. No more clown nose, no more doormat, no more fool. The song becomes an anthem of breaking free from a toxic love, reminding learners that passion without respect can “kill you inside,” but reclaiming dignity can feel just as dramatic and alive as the very love that hurt you.
