Tarde Lyrics in English by Sebastian Yatra
Cobarde translates to "coward". It's a strong, emotionally charged word that stands out in the lyrics, conveying regret and self-blame.
In the song, Sebastián Yatra sings, "Ese es el precio de ser cobarde" (That's the price of being a coward). He uses this word to express deep remorse for his past actions or inactions that led to losing someone important, highlighting the painful consequences of his own fear or hesitation.
Have you ever messed up so badly in a relationship that you immediately regretted it? Sebastian Yatra's "Tarde" [Late] is all about that gut-wrenching feeling. He sings about going to his ex's house, only to find she's completely changed and moved on. He laments, "De tu vida ya me sacaste / Esa sonrisa la ensayaste / Tu tatuaje lo borraste, ¿dónde está?" [You've already taken me out of your life / You rehearsed that smile / You erased your tattoo, where is it?]. Ouch!
He realizes he's getting a taste of his own medicine, admitting, "De la misma medicina que te di, me das" [You give me the same medicine I gave you]. He remembers her asking if he was sure when he left, and now he's full of regret, crying "todo el río que lloró" [all the river she cried]. He's left wondering, "No sé si es ahora o ya es muy tarde / Ese es el precio de ser cobarde" [I don't know if it's now or if it's too late / That's the price of being a coward]. It's a powerful song about the consequences of our actions and wishing we could turn back time.
