Ya No Te Puedo Querer Lyrics in English Natalia Lafourcade

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ya No Te Puedo Querer by Natalia Lafourcade from Spanish to English.
I was alone on the balcony
Waiting that you'd arrive
You didn't want any more
You couldn't anymore
To come, to my arms, you
My charm, you
You
I was alone at our altar
Praying with a song
Asking that you stay
That at least you don't let me leave your arms
Go, your world, go
I was alone in the city
Searching for you in every corner
How strange that silence, I find it strange that you don't arrive
That you don't arrive, even though dawn already broke
Even though dawn already broke
The crows come again
My heart is in mourning
And what we talk now is no longer the same language or reason
I can't love you anymore
I can't build you again anymore
It's impossible to erase
The sea scars and not knowing how to let go
I can't love you anymore
I can't build you again anymore
It's impossible to erase
The sea scars and not knowing how to let go
Spring comes to me
After a long winter
From tears you learn
And what we fail to forgive
I can't love you anymore
I can't build you again anymore
It's impossible to erase
The sea scars and not knowing how to let go
I can't love you anymore
I can't build you again anymore
It's impossible to erase
The sea scars and not knowing how to let go
I can't love you anymore
I can't build you again anymore
It's impossible to erase
The sea scars and not knowing how to let go
I can't love you anymore
I can't build you again anymore
It's impossible to erase
The sea scars and not knowing how to let go

SONG MEANING

Imagine standing alone on a balcony at dawn, clutching the last hope that someone you love might appear, only to realize the night has ended without them. “Ya No Te Puedo Querer” captures that awakening moment when desire turns into resignation. Through vivid images of empty city corners, ominous crows, and an altar of broken promises, Natalia Lafourcade paints the slow, painful recognition that certain wounds in love are too deep to mend.

Yet, wrapped inside the melancholy is a gentle lesson in renewal. Just as spring arrives after a harsh winter, the singer accepts that learning comes from tears and growth follows forgiveness. Lafourcade’s voice guides us from sorrow to self-liberation, reminding listeners that while scars cannot be erased, they can be embraced as part of the journey toward letting go.
