With half a soul until the day I saw you leave
The flag you planted here in my chest, babe, is still there
Your heel on the stairs, a rumble in the wall of my head
And the urge to sing to you appears sometimes by surprise
In search of that love
My sailboat set sail, sailing through your voice
Time asked me
If I want to heal and I told it no
To forget you, they want to come cure me
With intentions of giving me
Another sweetness, an alfajor
But I already tasted your flavor
Don't come to give me other kisses
I've married those from your skin
Even if you never give them to me
I have a rolled-up kiss to run away with you and I've never given it to you
Even when I swim freely, I only swim here in your lake
In search of that love
My sailboat set sail, surrounding your voice
The wind asked me
If it should dry you and I told it no
To forget you, they want to come cure me
With intentions of giving me
Another sweetness, an alfajor
But I already tasted your flavor
Don't come to give me other kisses
I've married those from your skin
Even if you never give them to me
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
To forget you, they want to come cure me
With intentions of giving me
For sweetness, an alfajor
But I already tasted your flavor
Don't come to give me other kisses
I've married those from your skin
Even if you never give them to me
Oh woah oh
Oh woah oh
Oh woah oh oh oh

alfajordulce de leche cookie

Alfajor refers to a traditional South American confection, often a sandwich cookie filled with dulce de leche and sometimes covered in chocolate or powdered sugar. It's a specific and culturally rich word that isn't commonly found in every song.

In "Para Olvidarte," the artists use "alfajor" as a metaphor for a sweet new love interest or a new

"Para Olvidarte" ("To Forget You") is Mau y Ricky's confession that moving on hasn't worked. The hook admits it outright — "Para olvidarte" ("to forget you") — describing someone who shows up "a curarme" ("to heal me") with someone new, only to find the old feeling never left. The chorus repeats "Aunque nunca me los" ("even if you never give them to me"), a stubborn refusal to let go even while chasing a cure that doesn't exist.

It's a classic breakup-in-denial song: every attempt at distraction just proves how present the memory still is. The repeated "oh" outro isn't filler — it's the sound of someone who's run out of words for the ache and is just sitting inside it.
