Verse 1
A flower lasts a summer
A summer is three months
A year has twelve months
Can a year be that brief?
Because the dictionary is brief
To define who you are
A “love you” isn’t “I love you”
An “I love you” isn’t that strong
If what you feel isn’t strong
If it’s that you feel that you have loved
With the body and with the mind
Like I love you
Chorus 1
Going out into the world is like walking in the middle of a war
But at your side everything’s safer
Because I find peace
Chorus 1
I ask heaven that it protect you
That we’re always the same
That you love me the same
Chorus 1
I want to be with you the rest of my life
That we can be together until the end
To be able to wake up with your smile
Is my joy
Day after day
Verse 2
There’s no pain that’s eternal
A “see you later” isn’t eternal
“See you later” is a return
There’s no return without meeting
And a meeting is the most beautiful
When we’re body to body
Chorus 2
Going out into the world is like walking in the middle of a war
But at your side everything’s safer
Because I find peace
Chorus 2
I ask heaven that it protect you
That we’re always the same
That you love me the same
Chorus 2
I want to be with you the rest of my life
That we can be together until the end
To be able to wake up with your smile
Is my joy
Day after day
Chorus 3
That we’re always the same
That you love me the same
Chorus 3
I want to be with you the rest of my life
That we can be together until the end
To be able to wake up with your smile
Is my joy
Day after day

SONG MEANING

“Día Tras Día” is Andrés Cepeda’s heartfelt love letter to that special person who turns everyday life into a calm oasis. Playing with images of time — a summer, a year, a fleeting word like “te quiero” or “te amo” — the Colombian singer-songwriter asks: how can something so short capture feelings so deep? He decides it cannot, so he stretches the idea of love into something that lasts sunrise after sunrise. Even stepping into the world feels like walking through a war, yet by his partner’s side he finds peace, protection, and the courage to keep going.

At its core the song promises enduring companionship. Cepeda prays to the sky for their love to remain the same, dreams of waking up to her smile every morning, and insists that farewells always circle back to reunions. The chorus – “Día tras día” – sums up the message: true love is measured not in dramatic declarations but in the quiet joy of sharing life day after day.
