I learned three words

There's not a minute in the day that I don't think about you

There's no silence that you're not missing

When I see you, I can't resist it

I'd give everything to love you

Verse 1

There's not a second that I don't want to share

And there's nothing that I don't want to confess to you

They're three words that I don't know how to say

And that get lost when I look at you

Chorus 1

My heart doesn't want to stay quiet

Break the silence

It doesn't want to wait because love

Arrives suddenly and runs away without saying goodbye

Verse 2

The night goes sleepless and at dawn

Lonely, the same dream wakes me up

How much road will be left to travel

To escape from this hell?

My heart doesn't want to stay quiet

Break the silence

It doesn't want to wait because love

Arrives suddenly and runs away without saying goodbye

Until the world stops, I'll be here

I'll follow you until I find you

With the stars and the moon I'll tell you

The words that I never spoke before

My heart doesn't want to stay quiet

Break the silence, no, no, no

It doesn't want to wait because love

Arrives suddenly and runs away without saying goodbye

My heart doesn't want to stay quiet

Break the silence

It doesn't want to wait because love

Arrives suddenly and runs away without saying goodbye

My heart doesn't want to stay quiet

and break the silence

It doesn't want to wait because love

Arrives suddenly and runs away without saying goodbye

SONG MEANING

“Tres Palabras” invites us into the restless heart of someone who is bursting to say three simple words, yet freezes every time those eyes appear. Enrique Iglesias paints a picture of constant longing: there is no minute, no silence, no second when the beloved is absent from his mind. The song swings between aching solitude (sleepless nights that feel like an “infierno”) and electrifying hope, as the singer vows to follow his love “hasta que el mundo se detenga.” At its core, this is a story of a heart that refuses to stay quiet, begging to break the silence before love slips away without warning.

Listening to the track is like standing on the edge of a confession. The pulse of the music mirrors the urgency of seizing the moment, while the lyrics remind us that love can arrive in a flash and vanish just as quickly. Will he ever say those three words? The song leaves us suspended in that thrilling uncertainty, urging us to feel the courage of our own unspoken emotions.
