I'll wait for you
It doesn't matter who kisses you, I'll wait for you
It doesn't matter that you love me, I'll listen to you
If you've given me so much, I'll wait for you
And I'll give you my whole life
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you in the shadows, I'll always be there
It doesn't matter that your eyes don't want to see me
It doesn't matter who hugs you, I'll love you
And I'll give you my whole life
Because my love
Is above so much betrayal
So much disdain, all reason
Because the pain that I carry inside is all
Yours and mine
Where will they be?
The kisses that we still have left to count
You know it and nobody else
And when I wake up
I'll sit on my side of the couch
To wait for you once more
I'll wait for you
You know my restrained sorrow well
So well that if you leave me I'll die standing
I won't cry over your absence, I'll just wait
And I'll give you my whole life
Because my love
Is above so much betrayal
So much disdain, all reason
Because the pain that I carry inside is all
Yours and mine
Where will they be?
The kisses that we still have left to count
You know it and nobody else
And when I wake up
I'll sit on my side of the couch
To wait for you once more
Where will they be?
The kisses that we still have left to count
You know it and nobody else
Me without your love
I'm a bunch of things except myself
My heart hurts so much
Mmm

SONG MEANING

En Mi Lado Del Sofá is a heartfelt ballad about unwavering devotion. The singer paints a vivid picture of sitting on her side of the couch, day after day, ready to welcome back a lover who has drifted away. No matter who kisses him, hugs him, or tries to replace her, she promises to wait, listen, and offer her “vida entera” – her entire life. This isn’t blind optimism; it is a raw confession that her love sits “por encima de tanta traición,” above every betrayal and all reason. The sofa becomes a powerful symbol of loyalty, where hope and pain coexist in every quiet moment of anticipation.

Yet beneath the calm patience lies intense vulnerability. She admits that without his love she is “un montón de cosas menos yo” – everything except herself. The lyrics ask the haunting question “¿Dónde estarán los besos que aún nos quedan por contar?” hinting at kisses and memories still untold. La Oreja de Van Gogh captures the bittersweet mix of faith and heartache: the willingness to endure sorrow for the chance of rekindling what was lost. In essence, the song celebrates love’s endurance while acknowledging its cost, making every listener feel the ache of waiting on their own side of the sofa.
