Verse 1

Today I got up thinking about you more than yesterday

It's crazy that time has passed and I'm still where you left me

You could make your life in another place

Or: You were able to live your life somewhere else

And I can't find who takes your place

Or: And I can't find someone to take your place

What waste to remember you

Prechorus 1

There's no formula to forget your kisses

Nor an equation that the result leads to that

As much as I add and multiply, it gives me less

Now that you left, please don't go far

Or: Now that you're gone, please don't go far away

Chorus 1

In case you want to return

Here I'll wait for you

Or: I'm going to wait for you here

In case you want to return

Here I'll wait for you

Verse 2

And although you caught wings

Or: And even though you took flight

I know that what I say to you doesn't slide off

Or: I know what I say means something to you

You may like him, but you love me

Or: It can be that him you like, but me, you love me

And here I kept your place

And I keep the same number in case someday you call me

Think about it

The kisses and the hugs there in New York

In midwinter, but they gave you warmth

Or: In the dead of winter, but they kept you warm

Same as me

Just like me

You carried it all in your heart

Easy, quickly you got a replacement

And suddenly you found a clown

You already know how I am

Also where to find me, just in case

Prechorus 2

There's no formula to forget your kisses

Nor an equation that the result leads to that

As much as I add and multiply, it gives me less

Now that you left, please don't go far

Chorus 2

In case you want to return

Here I'll wait for you

In case you want to return

Here I'll wait for you

The party started, babe, miss, lady

Bridge

Look, the hours are passing

Surely tonight she falls in love

Right there I run

I spend my savings

I call Marc to sing at the wedding

Chorus 3

In case you want to return

Here I'll wait for you

In case you want to return

Here I'll wait for you

This goes on, attack Sergio

Outro 1

There's no formula to forget your kisses

Now that you left, don't go far

Or: Now that you're gone, don't go far away

There's no formula to forget your kisses

Now that you left, don't go far

Outro 2

There's no formula to forget your kisses

Now that you left, don't go far

There's no formula to forget your kisses

Now that you left, don't go far

SONG MEANING

“La Fórmula” shakes up classic salsa with a modern twist, as Maluma teams up with Marc Anthony to turn heartbreak into a dance-floor confession. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who just cannot solve the “equation” of moving on. No matter how he adds, subtracts, or multiplies his feelings, the result is always the same – he misses the taste of her kisses and keeps her spot reserved in his life. Behind the lively horns and percussion, there is a stubborn hope: he begs her not to wander too far because his heart (and even his phone number) will stay exactly where she left them.

This song blends playful wordplay with raw emotion. We hear longing in lines about New York winters warmed by their embrace, jealousy when he calls her new man a “payaso,” and determination as he dreams of calling Marc to sing at their future wedding. “La Fórmula” reminds us that sometimes love, just like math, refuses to be neatly solved – but at least salsa gives us a rhythm to keep dancing while we figure it out.
