“Prometo” (Spanish for “I promise”) is Fonseca’s wholehearted declaration of eternal love. Throughout the lyrics he stacks one vow after another – from giving his partner sunshine every day to serenading her while she sleeps. These promises paint a picture of devotion that is both romantic and down-to-earth: morning coffee, shared memories, a little house by a tropical stream. The Colombian singer mixes grand fantasies with everyday tenderness, reminding us that real love thrives on small daily gestures just as much as on big dreams.
At the same time, Fonseca turns the spotlight on mutual commitment. He is willing to accompany his beloved through every step of life, but only if she also “never stops loving” him. This give-and-take makes the song feel like a loving pact rather than a one-sided pledge. With its catchy vallenato-pop rhythm and heartfelt lyrics, “Prometo” becomes an invitation to believe in lasting love, to speak your feelings loudly, and to guard that shared promise with all your heart.
