¿Amigos Para Que? Lyrics (English Translation) – Gera MX, Ervin River

¿Amigos Para Que? (English Translation) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: Gera MX]
The singer is confused about why they should stay friends when everything between them was already so personal. He feels that knowing all her secrets and having shared intimate moments makes friendship pointless. There’s a sense of frustration and longing because he gave his all and now friendship feels empty. He’s questioning the idea of keeping a close relationship without romance when he still has strong feelings, and it seems unfair to be just friends after being so close.

[Verse 1: Ervin River]
He’s hurt because she clearly said they should only be friends, and it hit him hard, like a sudden shock. Her actions, like blocking him on social media, make it worse and show she wants distance. He’s struggling to cope, staying up late drinking and thinking about her, while she acts normal and tells him it’s early morning. He’s caught between his feelings and the reality that she’s trying to move on.

[Pre-Chorus: Gera MX & Ervin River]
He tries to calm himself, telling himself it will pass, but he can’t stop thinking about her. He remembers her smile and the moments they shared, like taking photos and traveling together. Those memories make him wish he could escape to somewhere far away just to avoid the pain of seeing her from a distance. Every little memory keeps him stuck, making it hard to move on, even if he wants to.

[Chorus: Gera MX]
He repeats the question of why they should even be friends. Since he knows everything about her and they were recently intimate, staying just friends feels impossible. He misses her a lot and can’t understand how they can act like nothing happened. Giving her everything already makes the idea of friendship frustrating and almost meaningless. The chorus shows his deep struggle with lingering feelings and the pain of being close yet separated.

[Verse 2: Ervin River]
He admits that his jealousy and suspicion make him act differently, and she sees it as overprotective behavior. He feels confused because he doesn’t understand why they are forced to be friends, which feels like a mystery. She complains that he doesn’t take things seriously when she’s away, but he brushes it off and focuses on enjoying music, drinks, and time with friends. He tries to distract himself with concerts and small joys, but his feelings for her keep mixing with everyday life, making friendship complicated and emotionally tricky.

[Post-Chorus: Ervin River]
He repeats that his jealousy makes him act dangerously, but he sees it as protecting her. She doesn’t understand and calls him overly jealous. This back-and-forth shows the tension between his care and her perception, emphasizing the conflict that makes friendship feel almost impossible.

[Bridge: Gera MX]
He questions if staying friends is even worth it anymore. He feels like it might be time to try something again romantically, but he warns that he’s not ready to deal with emotional breakdons if things go wrong. There’s hesitation and uncertainty, but also a desire to finally act on what he truly feels instead of staying stuck in friendship.

[Outro: Ervin River]
Even though he risks losing everything, he holds on to hope and faith. He’s still unsure why friendship exists after what they shared. He signs off with a personal shout-out, showing connection to his music and fans, while reflecting on love, longing, and the struggle of staying close to someone he still deeply cares about. It’s a mix of hope, honesty, and emotional reflection.
