Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Palabras by Amaia Montero from Spanish to English.

Verse 1

Words

That announce premature goodbyes

Verse 1

That explode into a thousand pieces

When they go silent

Verse 1

That rise up your throat

Broken

Verse 1

That kill

I get lost

Verse 2

Thinking about us

And I swear that I don't regret

Verse 2

Having given you my life

I keep the good

Verse 2

I look into your eyes

And I know that the moment has come

And I tremble

You leave

And I can't think of saying a single word

That ends this silence that now reaches me

And I die killing

I kiss you slowly and I tell you

That love alone is no longer enough

My years, my life, my nights

In seven words

Tired

Of never stopping turning

In our bed

Flying by parachute

Through this house

Looking for traces of life

Nothing remains

That is worth anything

I get lost

Thinking about us

And I swear that I don't regret

Having given you my life

I keep the good

I look into your eyes

And I know that the moment has passed

And the ego

Leaves

And I can't think of saying a single word

That fits with this silence

That now reaches me

And I die killing

I kiss you slowly

And I tell you that love alone

Is no longer enough

My years, my life, my nights

They're over

I will always think that you were found

By my lucky star

I don't know how to heal my heart

And now that it's clear that neither

Of the two of us was that brave

I get lost

Between the people and your voice

Leaves

And I can't think of saying a single word

That ends this silence

That now reaches me

And I die killing

I kiss you slowly

And I tell you that love alone

Is no longer enough

My years, my life, my nights

In seven words

Today you leave

And the silence that entered my soul

Only looks out the window

To see you arrive

There's nothing left of us anymore

Our words ran out

And the memory that doesn't leave

Today wants to stay

SONG MEANING

Palabras is a heartfelt goodbye wrapped in shimmering pop. Amaia Montero invites us into the final moments of a relationship where words are both heroes and villains. Some erupt like fireworks, others choke in the throat, and the most important ones never make it out at all. Over a gentle melody, she paints the familiar scene of two lovers standing on the edge: memories flutter around them, silence spreads between them, and every attempt to speak feels too heavy for the air.

What makes the song so gripping is its honest confession that love alone is sometimes not enough. The singer treasures the good times, yet she accepts that the spark has faded. As she kisses him goodbye, she realises that their story now lives only in echoes and seven lingering words. Palabras turns that bittersweet insight into a moving anthem for anyone who has ever loved deeply, lost bravely, and learned to treasure even the silence that follows.
