Verse 1

DJ, don't play the song

Because every time it plays, my heart breaks

Because every time that I think of him, I feel like I'm going crazy

Because I don't have my baby

And I still want him here

That kiss was for me

But it's not going to be anymore

I don't want to lose you

Why do you leave so easily?

I'm still here, thinking only of you

And I haven't told anyone

I lost my mind and I'm crazy for you

Chorus 1

Today, butterflies don't fly anymore

There are no more roses

The ones that in the summer you were giving me

And tonight

Nothing will be the same

To dance without you, I don't know how to dance

I don't know how to dance without you

The music doesn't sound the same

Verse 2

Another empty night thinking 'Why did he leave?'

Another night where I didn't forget

Yes, I'm like that

Last night, I cried

But I won't cry anymore

Well, at least I tried

To not call you, and I didn't call

Because without you nothing tastes good to me

I'm not going to cry anymore

I swear that I won't cry

Even though I know that I won't forget

Because without you nothing tastes good to me

Chorus 2

Butterflies fly

There are no more roses

The ones that in the summer you were giving me

And tonight

Nothing will be the same

To dance without you, I don't know how to dance

The music doesn't sound the same

Butterflies fly on the light bulbs

(Italian)

Attracted as if it were sunlight

(Italian)

Like me, who among billions of people

(Italian)

I come towards you

(Italian)

Chorus 3

Today, butterflies don't fly anymore

There are no more roses

The ones that in the summer you were giving me

And tonight

Nothing will be the same

To dance without you, I don't know how to dance

The music doesn't sound the same

SONG MEANING

“Mariposas” pairs an irresistible dance beat with the sting of heartbreak. Italian hit-maker sangiovanni joins Spanish superstar Aitana to sing about that moment when a relationship ends but the feelings refuse to leave. The once-fluttering mariposas (butterflies) of new love have vanished, the summer roses have wilted, and every familiar song on the dance floor only deepens the pain. The narrator promises not to cry or reach out, yet every night feels empty, every rhythm sounds off, and dancing without their ex just feels wrong.

Beneath the club-ready sound, the lyrics swirl with vivid images: bulbs glowing like tiny suns that lure butterflies, memories of kisses meant “for me,” and the stubborn taste of everything “that no longer feels right” without the other person. “Mariposas” captures the push-and-pull of trying to move on while still being magnetically drawn back to a lost love. It is at once a breakup anthem and a reminder that even on the brightest dance floor, the heart can keep its own bittersweet beat.
