Lo primero que perdí fue la concentración cuando llegaste

The first thing I lost was concentration when you arrived

Lo segundo que perdí fue el miedo que tenía de acercarme

The second thing I lost was the fear I had of approaching

Lo tercero que perdí fueron los nervios de besarme contigo

The third thing I lost was the nerves of kissing you

Y perdí la libertad en el momento en el que fuimos más que amigos

And I lost my freedom the moment we were more than friends

Entre las cosas que perdí, perdí

Among the things that I lost, I lost

Fui perdiendo la noción del tiempo

I was losing track of time

Perdí el control estando entre tus besos

I lost control being between your kisses

Poco a poco perdí la cabeza por ti

Little by little I lost my mind for you

De las cosas que perdí

Of the things I lost

Lento me fui perdiendo en ti

Slowly I got lost in you

Ya que estaba entre tus manos

Since it was in your hands

Tardaste dos segundos en fallarme

It took you two seconds to fail me

Y en menos de un segundo

And in less than a second

Fui corriendo a perdonarte

I ran to forgive you

Y fue entonces que empecé a ganar a diario

And that's when I started earning daily

Más inseguridades

More insecurities

Y ganó la realidad cuando descubrí tus infidelidades

And reality won when I discovered your infidelities

Y entre las cosas que perdí, perdí

And among the things that I lost, I lost

Y de las que más duelen, fue mi tiempo

And of those that hurt the most, it was my time

Perdí el control estando entre tus besos

I lost control being between your kisses

Poco a poco perdí la cabeza por ti

Little by little I lost my mind for you

Pero un día aprendí

But one day I learned

Que hay que perder para seguir la vida

What do you have to lose to continue life?

Que hay que soltar para sanar la herida

What do you have to let go of to heal the wound?

Me costó pero al fin te arranqué de raíz

It cost me but in the end I uprooted you

De las cosas que perdí, perdí

Of the things I lost, I lost

Perdí el temor que salgas de mi vida

I lost the fear that you would leave my life

Abrí los ojos, no sé qué te veía

I opened my eyes, I don't know what I saw in you

Poco a poco volvió mi corazón a latir

Little by little my heart started beating again

Y al final yo comprendí

And in the end I understood

Que no te necesito para ser feliz

I don't need you to be happy

Y el día que más gané en la vida

And the day I won the most in my life

Fue el día en que te perdí

It was the day I lost you

arranqué de raíz — uprooted

Arranqué de raíz literally translates to "I pulled out from the root." It's a strong, evocative phrase that goes beyond a simple "I got over you."

In the song, it signifies a complete and decisive removal of someone from one's life, like pulling a plant out entirely so it can't grow back. This powerful imagery conveys the depth of the healing process and the finality of the breakup, making it a memorable and impactful choice.

Río Roma's "Las Cosas Que Perdí" is a really honest look at falling in love and then falling out of it, or rather, being pushed out. It starts with the singer describing how quickly they lost themselves in a new relationship. They lost their "concentración cuando llegaste" [concentration when you arrived], then their fear, and even their nerves about kissing. Soon, they "perdí la libertad en el momento en el que fuimos más que amigos" [lost freedom the moment we were more than friends], and even "perdí el control estando entre tus besos" [lost control while in your kisses]. It's a relatable feeling of being completely swept away!

But then the song takes a turn, and it gets a bit heartbreaking. The singer admits, "Tardaste dos segundos en fallarme / Y en menos de un segundo / Fui corriendo a perdonarte" [It took you two seconds to fail me / And in less than a second / I ran to forgive you]. This leads to gaining "más inseguridades" [more insecurities] and discovering "tus infidelidades" [your infidelities]. Ouch! However, the song ends on a powerful note of self-discovery and strength. The singer realizes, "hay que perder para seguir la vida / Que hay que soltar para sanar la herida" [you have to lose to continue life / That you have to let go to heal the wound]. Ultimately, they understand "Que no te necesito para ser feliz / Y el día que más gané en la vida / Fue el día en que te perdí" [That I don't need you to be happy / And the day I gained the most in life / Was the day I lost you]. It's a journey from losing oneself to finding true happiness after a painful breakup.
