Intro

How crazy it would be

If I was the owner of your heart for just one day

If joy wins us, I would finally kiss you

What would happen?

It could be between him and me, who would win?

Chorus 1

My condition madly in love with a girl that today I miss

And not having you hurts me

We'd be the couple of the year, how much I miss you

Without condition I fell in love precisely with a girl who isn't mine

And my friends knew it

And the whole world was telling me what would happen, you'd leave me

Or: And everyone told me what would happen, me you'd leave

Verse 1

If they gave me only twenty-four hours, I'll take advantage of them

I swear that I'm going to do things to you that they've never done to you

I'm already tired of being friends with benefits

Maybe I don't deserve you

But there's no need to say it

If we got together we would be the couple of the century

With her acapella I want to introduce

This has a double meaning, with sexual undertones, as it can also translate as 'I want to get introduced with her acapella'

Double edged razor

We break up and I wanted to reproduce the videos

Or: We broke up and I wanted to see our videos again

They were telling me, I was ignoring them

Or more simply: They told me, I ignored them

Simply everything now came to nothing

I was doing it and I was looking into her eyes

I never believed that love was blinding

Chorus 2

My condition madly in love with a girl that today I miss

And not having you hurts me

We'd be the couple of the year, how much I miss you

Without condition I fell in love precisely with a girl who isn't mine

And my friends knew it

And the whole world was telling me what would happen, you'd leave me

Verse 2

I assumed my depression from seeing a photo of you

And seeing you on television

It may destroy my mind, stop

Lit: It can be that it destroys my mind, stop

Like the song says

That nobody is imprisoned for stealing a heart

Suffering, crying of pain

Or: Suffering, crying with grief

Don't let her see my crying it's not worth it

I don't have wings, but you do come back

You become the bad one in our novel

You have me suffering, crying of pain

Don't let her see my crying it's not worth it

I don't have wings, but you do fly

You take away the track and I remain acapella

Chorus 3

My condition madly in love with a girl that today I miss

And not having you hurts me

We'd be the couple of the year, how much I miss you

Without condition I fell in love precisely with a girl who isn't mine

And my friends knew it

And the whole world was telling me what would happen, you'd leave me

Outro 1

I had another melody

Of what would result

Damn monotony

Was the blame yours or was the blame mine?

Or: Was it your fault or was it my fault?

I learned to live with jealousy

You learned to not be mine

It only remains to be honest

I still love you

Did you like this lyrics translation?

acapella — a cappella

Acapella is a musical term you might already know, meaning "without instrumental accompaniment". But this song uses it in a deeply emotional and metaphorical way.

Myke Towers raps, "Me quitas la pista y me quedo acapella" (You take away the musical track and I'm left a cappella). He's not literally singing; he's describing the feeling of being left vulnerable and alone after a breakup, as if the entire backing track to his life has disappeared.

Ever convinced yourself that you and your crush would be absolute magic together, even though everyone told you it was a terrible idea? That is the exact mess Colombian singer Sebastián Yatra and Puerto Rican rapper Myke Towers find themselves in here. They obsess over a romance that never fully got off the ground, convinced they missed out on being "la pareja del año" [the couple of the year] or even "la pareja del siglo" [the couple of the century]. Instead, they are stuck replaying old videos and nursing a bruised ego while watching their former love interest show up on TV screens and social media photos.

The lyrics mix pure melodrama with very blunt regrets. Yatra admits he got sick of being "amigos con derechos" [friends with benefits] and ignored all his friends who warned him he would end up dumped. There is a fun little phrase in the verses: Towers compares the breakup to a "navaja doble filo" [double-edged knife] because it cuts both ways, while Yatra complains about becoming the victim while she plays "la mala de nuestra novela" [the villain of our soap opera]. It is dramatic, slightly self-pitying, and totally honest about how hard it is to let go when you are still completely in love.
