Verse 1
It's clear that now you're really leaving
And it's okay if that's what you decided
I'd rather suffer your leaving for a couple of months
Than to live clinging to your love my whole life
There is one thing I want you to be aware of
If I walk away from your life it's forever
I can't force you to sigh for me
Nor ask you to love me, because that's not something you ask for
Prechorus 1
When I kissed you
I gave myself to you like to no one else in this world
And it's clear that you don't deserve my love
And unluckily for me, losing you is hurting me
Chorus 1
It's better if you go
Because you don't hurt the one who loves you
And if you want, just disappear once and for all
Because a love like mine, I swear, in this life
It won't come to you twice
Hey!
Verse 2
And for being so cruel you'll end up all alone
But what are we going to do?
Prechorus 2
When I kissed you
I gave myself to you like to no one else in this world
And it's clear that you don't deserve my love
And unluckily for me, losing you is hurting me
Chorus 2
It's better if you go
Because you don't hurt the one who loves you
And if you want, just disappear once and for all
Because a love like mine, I swear, in this life
It won't come to you twice, mm-mm
Outro
It won't come to you twice

Did you like this lyrics translation?

aferrado — clinging / holding on tightly

Aferrado means “clinging” or “holding on tightly,” especially when it is difficult to let go emotionally. In the song, the singer says he would rather suffer his lover’s departure than remain aferrado a tu amor, vividly describing someone desperately holding onto a love that is ending.

This is a breakup song where the singer chooses to walk away with his pride intact. He opens calmly: "Está claro que ahora sí te vas a ir" (It's clear that now you really are leaving), and decides he would rather "sufrir un par de meses tu partida" (suffer your leaving for a couple of months) than spend his whole life clinging to her love. He also warns her that if he goes, "es para siempre" (it's forever).

The chorus is where it hurts. He remembers how "como a nadie en este mundo, me entregaba" (I gave myself to you like to no one else in this world), admits that losing her is hurting him, and still tells her "es mejor que te vayas" (it's better that you go). Then comes the parting shot that gives the song its title: a love like his "no te llegará dos veces" (won't come to you twice). It's salsa heartbreak with a bit of a sting at the end.
