If Once (Si Una Vez)
Selena · Other Songs - Selena
And you
Don't even know what love is
I Put myself at your feet
And only with contempt you paid me back, But now see
If once I said that I loved you, today I regret it
If once I said that I loved you, I don't know what I was thinking
I must have been crazy
If once I said that I loved you and that for you I gave my life
If once I said that I loved you, I won't do it again
This mistake is a thing of the past
I Know that one day you will return
And you Will be sorry for everything
I put myself at your feet
And only with contempt you paid me back, but now see
If once I said that I loved you, today I regret it
If once I said that I loved you, I don't know what I was thinking
I must have been crazy
If once I said that I loved you and that for you I gave my life
If once I said that I loved you, I won't do it again
This mistake is a thing of the past
