POR QUÉ SERÁ? Lyrics (English Translation) – Grupo Frontera

[Verse 1: Payo Solís]
I would like to go back to the day we met
To not go
I would like a button to turn off feelings
And not suffer so much, not suffer so much anymore

[Chorus: Maluma & Payo Solís]
Why is it that when I want to love me they want to play?
When I want to have something
And I start to get excited, it ends up being a failure
Another love that breaks me into pieces
Second thought
I was born to love the one who doesn’t love me
And that hurts
Why is it that when I want to love me they want to play?
When I want to have something
And I start to get excited, it ends up being a failure
Another love that breaks me into pieces
Second thought
I was born to love the one who doesn’t love me
And that hurts

[Interlude: Julián Peña Jr. & Maluma]
And this is Grupo Frontera
With his partner Maluma baby, my love
Uah

[Verse 2: Maluma & Payo Solís]
I would like not to love and for you to love me
So that you feel what I feel and it also hurts you
Why do you pay me like this? If I really loved you
What happened? What changed you? You weren’t like that
Since when have I been superfluous in your heart?
If in mine you were the one in charge
I thought you loved me

[Chorus: Maluma & Payo Solís, Both]
Why is it that when I want to love me they want to play?
When I want to have something
And I start to get excited, it ends up being a failure
Another love that breaks me into pieces
Second thought
I was born to love the one who doesn’t love me
And that hurts
Why is it that when I want to love me they want to play?
When I want to have something
And I start to get excited, it ends up being a failure
Another love that breaks me into pieces
Second thought
I was born to love the one who doesn’t love me
And that hurts
