Verse 1
I tell you the truth
If life is beautiful, you and it are so similar
In the end, I don't dare to let destiny decide
If there is any risk of seeing myself without you
I don't want to bet
I warn you from now
In case you didn't notice, for a while this hasn't been a joke
Not even with all the coffee from Colombia can I get rid of your scent
Of your mouth, sorry
But I want to stick
You want to stick
Chorus 1
Don't think so much and kiss me
Let the mysteries end
Kiss me already
Zero fear, let's go seriously forward
To whoever it hurts, let them endure
You don't have to go back anymore
Better come, take the wheel
Don't think so much and kiss me
Let the mysteries end
Kiss me already
Zero fear, let's go seriously forward
To whoever it hurts, let them endure
You don't have to go back anymore
Better come, take the wheel
Verse 2
I wrote you this song and a list of pending things
The first is to make love to you urgently
The second, to stay forever
The third is like the first
But more urgently
Everything I want, I want with you
If you are my queen, I win at chess
Love me without shame, there's nothing with you
Inside and out, I'm as you see me, love
You make me better
What else can I tell you?
Look, let's go
Chorus 2
Don't think so much and kiss me
Let the mysteries end
Kiss me already
Zero fear, let's go seriously forward
To whoever it hurts, let them endure
Love is not fleeting when we're at the wheel
Verse 3
The other night I dreamed of you
The other night I dreamed of you
That I was dying of cold
Your gaze warmed me
The other night I dreamed of you
The other night I dreamed of you
That I was dying of cold
Your gaze warmed me
Chorus 3
Kiss me
Let the mysteries end
Kiss me already
Zero fear, let's go seriously forward
To whoever it hurts, let them endure
You don't have to go back anymore
Better come, take the wheel

SONG MEANING

Bésame is an upbeat duet where Spain’s Alejandro Sanz joins forces with Colombian superstar Shakira to celebrate a love that can’t wait another second. Throughout the lyrics, the singers compare their partner to the beauty of life itself, confessing that even destiny seems too slow when it comes to being together. Coffee from Colombia can’t erase the other’s scent, chess games are won with a single glance, and a playful to-do list starts with “make love urgently” and ends with “stay forever.” In every line, urgency and devotion collide: they urge each other to kiss now, forget fear, ignore gossip, and grab the wheel of their shared future.

The chorus sums it all up: “No lo pienses tanto y bésame” – don’t overthink it, just kiss me. The song turns that simple request into an anthem of fearless passion, inviting listeners to throw caution aside and drive straight toward lasting love. With its catchy pop rhythm and the magnetic blend of Alejandro’s raspy warmth and Shakira’s fiery vocals, Bésame feels like a spontaneous road trip where the only rule is to love boldly and kiss first, questions later.
