"Si Pudiera" by Manuel Medrano is a song about the sadness and loneliness the singer feels without the presence of that special person. The singer wishes he could turn back time to understand what he never saw, and that life has shown him he doesn't want another woman. The singer also wishes he could find someone with the same eyes, lips, mouth and skin as that woman who he loves. He expresses that time gives him another opportunity to understand that without her, his life no longer has meaning.

I can't anymore

I've been three days without dreaming

Already four nights without singing

A good while without someone with whom to talk

I don't know if I'm so good like this or just a little lonely and I don't accept it

And a little afraid to analyze

That if I could turn back time to some moment

And to be honest to see what I could never see

Maybe it's that something happened to me that made me understand

Maybe it's that life has shown me that I don't want another woman

Maybe although it's too late and you don't intend to listen to me

I have to tell you that you made me very happy

Chorus 1

If I could turn the earth again and again

I'd look for someone with your eyes same

With your same lips, with your same mouth

And with your same skin

If I knew to give time another little bit of time

To understand that without you I don't feel my life anymore

Without you the color returns to white and black

And I know that the distance made me blind in all the moments

In which I had to see you here

Verse 2

I can't anymore

I've been three days without dreaming

Already four nights without singing

A good while without someone with whom to talk

I don't know if I'm so good like this or just a little lonely and I don't accept it

And a little afraid to analyze

Chorus 2

If I could turn the earth again and again

I'd look for someone with your eyes same

With your same lips, with your same mouth

And with your same skin

If I knew to give time another little bit of time

To understand that without you I don't feel my life anymore

Without you the color returns to white and black

And I know that the distance made me blind in all the moments

In which I had to see you here

Chorus 3

If I could turn the earth again and again

I'd look for someone with your eyes same

With your same lips, with your same mouth

And with your same skin

If I knew to give time another little bit of time

To understand that without you I don't feel my life anymore

Without you the color returns to white and black

And I know that the distance made me blind in all the moments

In which I had to see you here
