Translation
When You Fall For A Guy
(Alejandra)
I'm not joking around,
What I've come to tell you, my friend,
and I've finally discovered the truth,
it's harsh, but here it is.
(Gloria)
I think I know who you are,
we've been struggling for a while
and perhaps this will destroy my life
but I rather know
How long have you been with him?
(Alejandra y Gloria)
And when you fall for a guy,
it blinds you,
it ties you to his volition
and you think he'll always love you,
but in the end
he only thinks in himself and nobody else
When you fall for him and lies,
the wound could be fatal,
but he's lying to both of us,
let's swear that you and me won't forgive him,
ever...
(Alejandra)
It's been years now
(Gloria)
Our anniversary was yesterday
(Alejandra)
Those long trips make sense now,
(Gloria)
That I'll never forget
(Alejandra)
And he fooled me as well...
(Alejandra y Gloria)
And when you fall for a guy,
it blinds you,
it ties you to his volition
and you think he'll always love you
but in the end
he only thinks in himself and nobody else
When you fall for him and lies,
the wound could be fatal,
but he's lying to both of us,
let's swear that you and me won't forgive him,
ever...

This is my forty-second attempt at translating/interpreting a song.
I grew up listening to both their music, and the fact that they sang together with this lyrics is amazingly beautiful. They both are known for writing music about heartbreak, this is about empowerment, how instead of fighting each other, they come together.
I do wish to become a Spanish/English translator much later in the future.
I wanted the English translation to match the flow of words in the Spanish version, a lot of parts don't really do. There are parts where contractions could be used, but I separated them to match the flow a bit better.
Any constructive feedback is welcomed!
