Verse 1
Sometimes you don't understand it, but time flies
I met you when we were in school
Many years passed and I still think of you
Or: It's been so many years and I still think of you
Hidden kisses by the candlelight
When you were mine, I was yours
Dancing it doesn't matter where it was
Or: Dancing no matter where it was
Damn time, damn pride
I don't know where you are anymore
Or: I no longer know where you are
Chorus 1
If I don't see you again
I don't know what I'm going to do
And I lack your waist which cures everything
Or: And I need / miss your waist which heals everything
I miss you, woman
And I'll never find a cure
It'll be craziness not to see you again
Or: It will be madness not to see you again
If I don't see you again
I'm going to go crazy
And I lack your waist which cures everything
Or: And I need your waist which heals everything
I miss you, woman
And I'll never find a cure
It'll be craziness not to see you again
Or: It will be madness not to see you again
Verse 2
I remember every promise which being alone weighs on me
I swore eternal love to you, but that doesn't matter anymore
Today love isn't worth it anymore, that word doesn't weigh
Or: Today love is no longer valid, that word does not carry weight
Today every filter in your photos covers the tears
Kissing me in the room of that hotel
I remember your mouth sweet as honey
Nobody takes away from me every night that on your skin
I tattooed my paper promises
And if you ask me to come back, I'll come back
Or: And if you ask me to get back together, I'll come back
And if you want to go flying, I'll fly
But don't ask me to forget you, I won't do it
I know that whatever happens, I'll love you
Or: I know that no matter what happens I'll love you
Chorus 2
If I don't see you again
I'm going to go crazy
And I lack your waist which cures everything
Or: And I need your waist which heals everything
I miss you, woman
And I'll never find a cure
It'll be craziness not to see you again
Or: It will be madness not to see you again
Verse 3
I feel that they took away from me a piece of my soul, it's not there
Life passes, you were the love of my life and you left
What does a mirror do without reflection?
What does Dalmata do without Ñejo?
This is a reference to the Puertorican reggaeton duo, Ñejo y Dálmata
And what do I do if I don't even know where you are anymore?
I laugh on the outside, inside I cry
And the more I get away, the more I adore you
Or: The more I distance myself, the more I adore you
Because one doesn't know what he has until he loses it
And now I'm alone
But I remember what you would tell me
What you liked when I had you
How you kissed me, that's not forgotten
When you sang to me
Chorus 3
If I don't see you again
I don't know what I'm going to do
And I lack your waist which cures everything
Or: And I need your waist which heals everything
I miss you, woman
And I'll never find a cure
It'll be craziness not to see you again
Or: It will be madness not to see you again
If I don't see you again
I'm going to go crazy
And I lack your waist which cures everything
Or: And I need your waist which heals everything
I miss you, woman
And I'll never find a cure
It'll be craziness not to see you again
Or: It will be madness not to see you again

locuramadness / craziness

Locura literally means "madness" or "craziness". It's a powerful word used to describe a state of intense emotion or irrationality.

In this song, the title word locura captures the singer's desperation. He sings, "Será una locura no volverte a ver" (It will be madness not to see you again), expressing that the thought of never seeing his past love again is unbearable and will drive him completely insane.

This song is a total heartbreaker, all about a love that started way back in school. The singer is looking back on this intense relationship, remembering things like "Besitos a escondidas a la luz de la vela" (secret little kisses by candlelight). They were completely in love, but now he has no idea where she is. He blames "Maldito el tiempo, maldito el orgullo" (Cursed time, cursed pride), suggesting that their own stubbornness might have been what split them up.

The whole song is basically him spiraling, thinking about how he can't live without her. The chorus says it all: "Será una locura no volverte a ver" (It will be madness not to see you again). He's full of regret, remembering the "promesas de papel" (paper promises) he made. He even looks at her social media and thinks the filters on her photos are hiding her sadness. He ends on a desperate note, saying he's lost a piece of his soul and that even though he's laughing on the outside, inside he's crying. It's a classic pop song about the one that got away and the madness of wanting them back.
