SONG MEANING

Como Queriendo Y No tells the story of a love that dissolves little by little, almost as if both people were unsure whether they truly wanted to hold on or let go. Alex Fernández sings from the perspective of the person who stayed, watching affection fade from his partner’s eyes until she finally leaves. The repeated phrase “como queriendo y no” (roughly “as if wanting to and not”) paints a picture of hesitation: she seems to love him, yet her actions betray a quiet decision to walk away. Each verse echoes that slow drift—her gaze grows distant, his heart stays committed, and the gap between them widens until it breaks him “en dos” (in two).

Despite the heartbreak, the song carries a touch of graciousness. While he mourns the “death” of their relationship, he still wishes her “buena suerte” (good luck) wherever she goes. This bittersweet goodbye wrapped in tender ranchera-pop melodies makes the track feel both personal and universally relatable, reminding listeners that sometimes love ends not with a loud crash but with a soft, uncertain step toward the door.
