Callado is the past participle of the verb callar, meaning 'to silence' or 'to shut up'. As an adjective, it means 'silent' or 'quiet'.
In this song, Antonio José sings about "Las palabras que ha callado el tiempo" (The words that time has silenced). This poetic phrase suggests unspoken feelings or truths that have been suppressed or left unsaid over time, adding a layer of depth and longing to the lyrics. It's a beautiful way to express regret or missed opportunities in communication.
Si Tú Quisieras paints the picture of a love that is just one yes away from coming back to life. Antonio José and Maite Perroni trade heartfelt lines that feel like a winter stroll barefoot on cold streets: every step reminds the singer of the warmth that is missing. December without the other person feels scorching, tears still linger on the pillow, yet a quiet hope beats under the surface—the storm has passed and the answer is clear.
The chorus repeats a simple bargain: “If you wanted…” Everything can be fixed with a single look, a single moment of faith. The narrator promises an entire world, ready to cross the distance of skin in one second, but time has paused since the beloved walked away. The song blends longing, vulnerability and optimism, inviting the listener to believe that love can restart at any moment, if both hearts decide to meet a mi lado—right by my side.
