Ever sent a midnight text you weren’t sure was a good idea? That’s exactly where Colombian superstar J Balvin finds himself in “Ganas De Verte.” Over a smooth reggaetón beat he confesses a sudden, overwhelming urge to see his ex, replaying memories of promises made para siempre and the chemistry they once shared. The song captures that tug-of-war between pride and longing, when you know moving on is the smart choice but your heart insists on one more chance.
Balvin’s lyrics paint love as a roller coaster: jealousy when he spots her with someone new, frustration at the waiting game, yet an unshakable belief that nadie te hace sentir lo que sientes conmigo. By admitting his flaws and the ups and downs of any relationship, he reminds us that no romance is perfect—yet some connections are too strong to erase. “Ganas De Verte” is both a vulnerable apology and a hopeful invitation, perfect for anyone who’s ever battled the late-night longing to hit “send.”
