Verse 1
Every time that I ask you
When, how, and where
You always answer me
Maybe, maybe, maybe
And so the days pass
And I'm growing desperate
And you just keep answering
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Chorus 1
You're wasting time
Thinking, thinking
By all that you hold dear
How much longer, how much longer?
Verse 2
And so the days pass
And I'm growing desperate
And you just keep answering
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Every time that I ask you
When, how, and where
You always answer me
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Chorus 2
You're wasting time
Thinking, thinking
By all that you hold dear
How much longer, how much longer?
You're wasting time
Thinking, thinking
By all that you hold dear
How much longer, how much longer?
And so the days pass
And I'm growing desperate
And you just keep answering
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, maybe, maybe

QuizásPerhaps / Maybe

Quizás is a beautiful Spanish word for "perhaps" or "maybe," and it forms the very heart of this classic song. It represents the uncertain and frustratingly vague answer the singer always receives when asking for commitment from his lover.

This single word captures the entire emotional theme of the song: a mix of hope, doubt, and the quiet desperation of waiting. The triple repetition in the chorus, "Quizás, quizás, quizás," turns it into a haunting and unforgettable musical hook that perfectly expresses a lover's limbo.

Have you ever tried to make plans with someone who just won't give you a straight answer? That's exactly what this song is about. The Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli and Jennifer Lopez act out a conversation full of frustration. One person keeps asking direct questions: "Que cuándo, cómo y dónde" (When, how, and where). They want to know what's going on. But the only answer they ever get is the infuriatingly vague "Quizás, quizás, quizás" (Maybe, maybe, maybe).

As you can imagine, this gets old fast. The singer complains, "Y así pasan los días / Y yo desesperando" (And so the days go by / And I'm getting desperate). They accuse their partner of just wasting time by "Pensando, pensando" (Thinking, thinking) instead of making a decision. The song builds on this single, simple idea, showing how being stuck in limbo with someone's indecisiveness can drive you crazy. The repeated plea of "Hasta cuándo, hasta cuándo" (Until when, until when) feels totally relatable.
