I wouldn't want to bother you

Hi, how are you, how's life going?

I hope it's great

Mine's awful, I'm a stray bullet

I know that I shouldn't talk to you

But, babe, sometimes I forget

If I try to dodge you

It's because I damn well know that I'd come back to you

Chorus 1

Sometimes I bring flowers to what we never were

Because it's so beautiful that I haven't lived it

And even so I imagine what it'd be like with you

I think of the thousands of ways we lost each other

But in another world I know that I'm with you

And I wouldn't write this song if I had no reason

Because you're the best, the best thing I've lost

If I threw those stones again

Sitting beside you on the riverbank

Chorus 1

And you took away this fear of the sea

Diving hand in hand with me

Going out to dance with you without thinking

You already know that I only do it with you

Like that day we met

But this time it'd last forever

And if for some reason you haven't understood

You're the best thing I've lost

Verse 1

I wake up in the morning and this time without you

Dreaming that you call me, but it's not like that

The less I see you, I know that I think about you more

There are a thousand ways to die

And I only choose to die for you

How beautiful it'd be not to tell you this

Chorus 2

Sometimes I bring flowers to what we never were

Because it's so beautiful that I haven't lived it

And even so I imagine what it'd be like with you

I think of the thousands of ways we lost each other

But in another world I know that I'm with you

And I wouldn't write this song if I had no reason

Because you're the best, the best thing I've lost

If I threw those stones again

Sitting beside you on the riverbank

Chorus 2

And you'd take away this fear of the sea

Diving hand in hand with me

Going out to dance with you without thinking

You already know that I only do it with you

Like that day we met

But this time it'd last forever

And if for some reason you haven't understood

You're the best thing I've lost

SONG MEANING

“Hola, ¿qué tal?” is Beret’s bittersweet postcard to a love that never quite became reality. Opening with the casual greeting of a text you should probably never send, the Spanish singer confesses that his life feels like a mess while he can’t stop picturing perfect moments with the person he lost. He brings flowers to what we never were, imagines dancing without a care, and dreams of diving into the sea hand in hand — all to say “you’re the best thing I’ve ever lost.”

The song drifts between regret and daydream, painting parallel universes where the couple does last forever. Each verse is a tug-of-war: he knows he shouldn’t reach out, yet hope keeps sneaking back in. With tender imagery, catchy melodies, and raw honesty, Beret turns unfulfilled love into a heartfelt anthem that reminds us how powerful “what-ifs” can be — and how hard it is to let go when someone still feels like home.
