Primera Cita Lyrics in English by CNCO

Vicio literally translates to "vice" or "addiction." While it can refer to a bad habit, in a romantic context, it's used to express an intense, almost uncontrollable need or craving for someone.

In "Primera Cita," CNCO sings, "Eres mi aire, eres mi agua, eres mi vicio" (You are my air, you are my water, you are my addiction). This powerful metaphor highlights how essential and captivating the person is to the singer, making it a memorable and passionate declaration of love.

This song is all about falling in love instantly. CNCO sings about meeting someone and knowing, right from the very first date, that this is it. He's completely swept away, asking, "¿Qué le hago yo? El amor es así" (What can I do? Love is like that). It's an intense feeling; he says that without her love, "yo me asfixio" (I suffocate) and calls her his "aire," his "agua," and his "vicio" (air, water, and vice). It's a dramatic, head-over-heels declaration of love at first sight.

He doesn't promise the world. Instead, he offers something more personal. He says, "Yo no te regalo estrellas / Yo te traigo melodías" (I don't give you stars / I bring you melodies), offering his music to bring color to her gray days. He wants to take care of her, promising to "aliviar tus pesadillas" (relieve your nightmares). The most romantic line might be when he says, "Hoy mi alma se viste de etiqueta" (Today my soul gets dressed up), which means he's putting his best self forward, hoping she'll come back to him after that amazing first date.
