si tú no estuvieras - What does this mean?

The whole phrase is

  • Y que si tú no estuvieras, no podría expresar lo que siento.

Best literal translation I can do is:

If you weren't.

But I think the whole phrase is best translated as:

If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be able to express what I feel.

Am I correct?

Hi there! I think you are right.

  • If it weren't for you = Si no fuera por ti.
  • If you weren't (here) = Si tú no estuvieras (aquí).
