Below is a copy of the song by Maná, and a translation. Focus on

learning the meanings and pay close attention to the phrases in the

past tense*.

Se me olvidó otra vez

Probablemente ya

de mí te te has olvidado*

y sin embargo yo

te seguiré esperando.

(You have probably already forgotten me and nonetheless I will go on

waiting for you.)

No me he querido ir*

para ver si algún día

que tú quieras volver

me encuentres todavía.

(I haven't wanted to leave, just in case one day you would want to

come back and find me still here.)

Por eso aún estoy

en el lugar de siempre

en la misma ciudad

y con la misma gente.

(For this reason, I am still here in the same place, in the same city,

and with the same people.)

Para que tú al volver

no encuentres nada extraño

y sea como ayer

y nunca más dejarnos.

(So that when you return you will find nothing strange, and it will be

like yesterday, and we will never leave each other again.)

Probablemente estoy

pidiendo demasiado

se me olvidaba que*

ya habíamos terminado.*

(I'm probably asking too much, and I was forgetting that we had

already ended things.)

Que nunca volverás

que nunca me quisiste*

se me olvidó otra vez*

que sólo yo te quise*

(That you will never return, that you never wanted me. I forgot again

that it was only me who loved you.)
