Verse 1

Sometimes you don't understand it, but time flies

I met you when we were in school

Many years passed and I still think of you

Or: It's been so many years and I still think of you

Hidden kisses by the candlelight

When you were mine, I was yours

Dancing it doesn't matter where it was

Or: Dancing no matter where it was

Damn time, damn pride

I don't know where you are anymore

Or: I no longer know where you are

Chorus 1

If I don't see you again

I don't know what I'm going to do

And I lack your waist which cures everything

Or: And I need / miss your waist which heals everything

I miss you, woman

And I'll never find a cure

It'll be craziness not to see you again

Or: It will be madness not to see you again

If I don't see you again

I'm going to go crazy

And I lack your waist which cures everything

Or: And I need your waist which heals everything

I miss you, woman

And I'll never find a cure

It'll be craziness not to see you again

Or: It will be madness not to see you again

Verse 2

I remember every promise which being alone weighs on me

I swore eternal love to you, but that doesn't matter anymore

Today love isn't worth it anymore, that word doesn't weigh

Or: Today love is no longer valid, that word does not carry weight

Today every filter in your photos covers the tears

Kissing me in the room of that hotel

I remember your mouth sweet as honey

Nobody takes away from me every night that on your skin

I tattooed my paper promises

And if you ask me to come back, I'll come back

Or: And if you ask me to get back together, I'll come back

And if you want to go flying, I'll fly

But don't ask me to forget you, I won't do it

I know that whatever happens, I'll love you

Or: I know that no matter what happens I'll love you

Chorus 2

If I don't see you again

I'm going to go crazy

And I lack your waist which cures everything

Or: And I need your waist which heals everything

I miss you, woman

And I'll never find a cure

It'll be craziness not to see you again

Or: It will be madness not to see you again

Verse 3

I feel that they took away from me a piece of my soul, it's not there

Life passes, you were the love of my life and you left

What does a mirror do without reflection?

What does Dalmata do without Ñejo?

This is a reference to the Puertorican reggaeton duo, Ñejo y Dálmata

And what do I do if I don't even know where you are anymore?

I laugh on the outside, inside I cry

And the more I get away, the more I adore you

Or: The more I distance myself, the more I adore you

Because one doesn't know what he has until he loses it

And now I'm alone

But I remember what you would tell me

What you liked when I had you

How you kissed me, that's not forgotten

When you sang to me

Chorus 3

If I don't see you again

I don't know what I'm going to do

And I lack your waist which cures everything

Or: And I need your waist which heals everything

I miss you, woman

And I'll never find a cure

It'll be craziness not to see you again

Or: It will be madness not to see you again

If I don't see you again

I'm going to go crazy

And I lack your waist which cures everything

Or: And I need your waist which heals everything

I miss you, woman

And I'll never find a cure

It'll be craziness not to see you again

Or: It will be madness not to see you again

Did you like this lyrics translation?

locura — madness / craziness

Locura literally means "madness" or "craziness". It's a powerful word used to describe a state of intense emotion or irrationality.

In this song, the title word locura captures the singer's desperation. He sings, "Será una locura no volverte a ver" (It will be madness not to see you again), expressing that the thought of never seeing his past love again is unbearable and will drive him completely insane.

Have you ever looked at an ex's social media and thought, you are not fooling anyone? That is the exact vibe Colombian duo Cali Y El Dandee and Sebastián Yatra hit us with in "Locura". They look back at a romance that started way back in school with secret candlelit kisses ("Besitos a escondidas a la luz de la vela"). Now, pride and time drove them apart. One singer calls out how fake online happiness can be: "Hoy cada filtro en tus fotos tapa las lágrimas" ("Today every filter on your photos covers up the tears"). It is a blunt reality check about post-breakup denial.

The real hook here is the obsession. The chorus plays on words, insisting her waist heals everything ("tu cintura que todo lo cura") and without her, losing his mind is inevitable: "Será una locura no volverte a ver" ("It will be madness not to see you again"). They even drop a fun pop-culture comparison asking what a mirror does without a reflection, or what reggaeton artist Dálmata does without his longtime music partner Ñejo ("¿Qué hace Dalmata sin Ñejo?"). Missing her isn't subtle here; it feels like half of him is literally missing.
