Verse 1
Maybe it was enough to breathe
Just to breathe very slowly
To recover every heartbeat within me
And it doesn't make sense now that you're not here
Where are you now?
Prechorus 1
Because I still can’t get used to it
December has already arrived
You're not here
I'll wait for you until the end
Chorus 1
Instead, no
There’s no time today to explain it to you
Or ask if I loved you enough
I'm here
And I want to talk to you now
Verse 2
Because they break against my teeth
The important things
Those words
That you'll never hear
And I drown them in a lament
Making them come out
They're all for you
Here, one by one
Prechorus 2
Do you feel them yet?
They're heavy and will settle
Between the two of us
If you're missing
I can't repeat them
I can't pronounce them
Chorus 2
Instead, no
Memories rain down on me
From those days when
We were running into the wind
I want to dream
That I can talk to you now
Chorus 3
Instead, no
There’s no time today to explain it to you
I also had
A thousand things to tell you
And in front of me
A thousand things that drag me towards you
Outro
Maybe it was enough to breathe
Just to breathe very slowly
Today it's late
Today, however, no

sumerjo — I submerge

Sumerjo is the 'I' form of the verb sumergir, which means 'to submerge' or 'to plunge'. It's a powerful verb that creates a vivid image of being underwater.

In this emotional ballad, Laura Pausini sings "Y las sumerjo en un lamento" (And I submerge them in a lament). She uses this word metaphorically to describe drowning her unspoken words in sadness, words she can no longer say to the person she misses.

Feel the weight of silence

Italian pop icon Laura Pausini invites us into a moment frozen in time with "En Cambio No". The song captures that breath-held instant after a loved one is gone, when every inhale feels heavy and every heartbeat sounds too loud. She paints December streets without the person she longs for, pairing gentle piano with soaring vocals to show how regret can echo louder than any goodbye.

Key emotions woven through the lyrics:

  • Remorse: she had "a thousand things" to say but waited too long.
  • Longing: memories "rain" over her as she dreams of speaking to them again.
  • Helplessness: words "break" against her teeth because they will never be heard.
  • Hope mixed with despair: she promises to wait until the end, yet admits "today is late".

Listening to this heartfelt ballad is like opening a diary page scented with nostalgia. It whispers a simple lesson: breathe, speak, and love while you still can.
