"Cuando Nos Volvamos A Encontrar" is a joyful roadmap to self-improvement and romantic do-overs. Carlos Vives narrates the story of someone who, after messing up, decides to clean up his act—literally: he pays the bills, weeds the garden, quits junk food, cigarettes, stress, and even learns French. Every change is a love-fuelled step toward the long-awaited day he meets his partner again, convinced that her return will feel like springtime bursting into bloom.
The chorus turns that hope into a colorful promise: no more tears on the pillow, no rushed farewells, just dawns worth admiring together and afternoons spent side by side. Backed by Marc Anthony’s vibrant salsa vocals, the song blends Colombian vallenato with tropical pop to celebrate second chances, proving that with enough rhythm, repentance, and roses, love can come back stronger than ever.
