“No Vaya A Ser” plays with a delicious contradiction: an upbeat, radio-friendly groove that hides a battle between desire and self-defense. Pablo Alborán admits that love has no rulebook – he only wants to be someone’s “best truth” – but his partner’s habit of coming and going keeps him on alert. Each chorus is a list of “what ifs”: What if I fall for you and you disappear again? What if loving you hurts twice as much the next time? The repeated phrase “No vaya a ser...” is both a plea and a protective spell, showing how hope and fear can live in the same heartbeat.
With vivid imagery like “hambre que olvida las mordidas” (a hunger that forgets the bites it has already taken), the singer reveals scars from past goodbyes while still craving more. He pours his frustration onto paper, swears he tried not to see his lover in someone else’s skin, and wonders if forgiving a heart-tease is just another trap. The song becomes a tug-of-war between letting love flow and guarding the door before history repeats itself – a relatable anthem for anyone who has ever loved, lost, and hesitated to jump back in.
