Verse 1
I didn't remember how good it was to touch your skin
How good it felt to hug you
Everything that you told me when looking at me
And how your hands shook all those problems off me
And made me forget how cruel the world was
Today I remember your kisses even though you're not here anymore
And how much I've wanted to go back, to touch you girl
Don't forget about me
Chorus 1
I hope that you never forget
Where we agreed to meet
There in the future where nobody knows there
In the distance that will be able to heal, everything that we did to each other yesterday
In the distance that will be able to heal, everything that we did to each other yesterday
Because someday I will look you in the eyes
And we will know that despite everything
It's as if between us
Nothing was going to end
Chorus 2
I hope that you never forget
Where we agreed to meet
There in the future where nobody knows there
In the distance that will be able to heal, everything that we did to each other yesterday
In the distance that will be able to heal, everything that we did to each other yesterday
Because someday I will look you in the eyes
And we will know that despite the distance
It's as if between us
Nothing was going to end

SONG MEANING

In “La Distancia”, Colombian pop sensation Manuel Medrano turns longing into poetry. The singer reminisces about the electric warmth of a past love: the feel of her skin, the safety of her hugs, and the way her hands once swept his troubles away. Even though miles now separate them, every kiss still lives vividly in his mind, and he aches to relive those moments. The verses paint a bittersweet picture of someone replaying memories like their favorite song, finding comfort in the hope that their connection is strong enough to survive time and space.

Yet this isn’t just a lament—it is a promise wrapped in optimism. Medrano imagines a rendezvous “allá en el futuro,” a place where nobody knows them and distance itself becomes the cure for yesterday’s mistakes. He believes that when their eyes meet again, it will feel as though nothing ever ended. The song invites listeners to believe that real love can pause, stretch, and bend, but it never truly breaks. It is an anthem for anyone who keeps a tender flame alive across the miles, trusting that one day the reunion will be just as magical as the very first touch.
