How is this done?
Write you a love song that
Don't sound cheesy and be honest?
After a lifetime of listening to ballads that I don't believe
How do I feel here to tell you what I feel?
I must be the most fraudulent poet of all time
I don't know how to read the moles on your body in Braille
When we part I don't miss my breath
I breathe normally, but I miss you
Because I like to be with you talking and spending time
Making fun of something and teasing each other
Not everything is fun but you laugh so beautifully
That even if I don't understand the joke, I also smile
I know I love you, because I do see your flaws
Falling in love with an ideal I suppose is more intense, of course
That's where those lofty verses will come from
My love is calmer, I love you in everyday life
Your brush in my bathroom, the quiet hugs
Refusing to let the other give up the last bite
Look at you, look at me, and know what's happening
That's where it's proven that we fit
You put up with me and I put up with you
How do you say you love someone
The one who then doesn't accept his mistakes?
No one is perfect here, but we improve
I try to improve you, you have already improved me
You might have expected a more romantic text
But I didn't want to fall into the most classic clichés
I wanted to tell you what I feel without embellishing it
I don't know how to talk to you about butterflies, but I love you
I throw myself headlong with you
I follow you with my head
I take care of you, I ask you
I take care of myself, nananana-ah
Although we both bring luggage
Nothing weighs us down, the same language
Neither crazy about you, nor crazy with you
You breathe, I breathe
Mommy, I love you
From the tips to the soles
From the small smiles that you implant in me
From the most subtle and banal things
To the deepest things and your carnal instincts
I love that, mom, there's no doubt about it
Being able to look into your eyes, contemplate your naked soul
I could write every night how much I love you
But you always ask me that if I write I be sincere
Nothing is perfect, and I understood it a long time ago
But there are so many things I love and few things I hate about you
So I'm willing to take the position
To assume our defects because we are part of this
We're not always okay, and that's okay
There is no better aphrodisiac than grooming ourselves with our skin
Sometimes it's okay not to see you because you miss us
Habit becomes ungrateful, sometimes we don't value it
You are not your better half, I am not yours either
But I want you to include mine in your entire life
I want to have you until the end of time
Because having each other is my best hobby
Nothing lasts forever, let's enjoy the moments
It's like poker, not everything is diamonds and flowers
What I feel does not fit all within a bouquet
I don't know how to talk about butterflies, I know, but I love you
I throw myself headlong with you
I follow you with my head
I take care of you, I ask you
I take care of myself, nananana-ah
Although we both bring luggage
Nothing weighs us down, the same language
There are no butterflies
You breathe, I breathe
There are no butterflies
There are no butterflies
There are no butterflies
There are no butterflies

cotidianoeveryday / daily

Cotidiano translates to "everyday" or "daily". While it might seem simple, its use in this song is quite profound and goes against typical romantic song tropes.

The artist explicitly states he doesn't want to fall into romantic clichés or talk about "mariposas" (butterflies in the stomach). Instead, he emphasizes that his love is "más calmado" (calmer) and that he loves his partner "en lo cotidiano" (in the everyday). This highlights a mature, deep love found in shared routines and small, ordinary moments, making it a unique and relatable take on romance.

Have you ever tried to write a love song that doesn't sound cheesy? That's exactly what El Chojin, santa rm, and Teyou are grappling with in "No Hay Mariposas II"! They're tired of those over-the-top ballads and want to share a more real, everyday kind of love.

Instead of grand romantic gestures, they focus on the small, honest moments. It's about enjoying time together, laughing at jokes (even if you don't quite get them!), and accepting each other's flaws. As they say, "No sé hablarte de mariposas, pero te amo" [I don't know how to talk to you about butterflies, but I love you]. It's a refreshing take on love, celebrating the imperfect, genuine connection between two people who choose to be together through thick and thin.
