Below, I translated the lyrics of the song COPILOTO by Belén Aguilera from Spanish to English.

Verse 1

I was the car's copilot, I don't know how to drive

Trying to nail the song without knowing which to choose, choose

I wanted you to think that it was for you

As if one song were enough to predict

Chorus 1

A whole relationship

Stored, waiting in the glove compartment

I sinned with the song that I played

I followed the frenzy

Chorus 1

But you haven't watched the same movies that I have

You don't want to fall in love

So what do I want your number for

If you have nothing to tell me?

What makes me mad is having rehearsed enough to be

Copilot

I was copilot

Verse 2

One hand on the wheel, the other ends up on my knee

Mmm

Verse 2

I don't know if it's love or nerves, but I feel the tingles

Mmm

Verse 2

I smile, holding back, I think of flirting, you've turned me on

You pull off at an exit to finish what you've started

Chorus 2

Because you haven't watched the same movies that I have

You don't want to fall in love

So what do I want your number for

If you have nothing to tell me?

What makes me mad is having rehearsed enough to be

Copilot

I was copilot

Bridge

What makes me mad is having rehearsed enough

Having checked out your old photos

Having listened to interesting music

To be copilot

Chorus 3

I was copilot

Outro

I was the car's copilot, I don't know how to drive

SONG MEANING

COPILOTO drops us straight into the passenger seat of a late-night car ride where Belén Aguilera tries to steer the mood with nothing but the playlist. She cannot drive, yet she is in charge of the music, frantically skipping tracks while hoping the perfect song will hint at the crush she is too shy to confess. Every shuffle feels like a tiny love letter hiding in plain sight.

When the chemistry she imagines never quite sparks, the ride turns bittersweet. Her date is looking for fun, not feelings, and all the witty lines, vintage photos, and “interesting music” she practiced suddenly feel pointless. The repeated refrain “Yo era copiloto” becomes a metaphor for being stuck on the sidelines of her own love story: prepared, eager, but ultimately powerless to choose the destination.
