“De Tanto” is Chayanne’s heartfelt SOS from the very first minutes of a breakup. The Puerto Rican superstar paints the scene like a dramatic telenovela: you have barely closed the door, only half an hour has ticked by, and he already feels as if a full year has disappeared. Time stretches, memories chase him around the room, and every second without you is ‘interminable.’ Chayanne reminds us that when you believe no one can love your partner the way you do, their sudden distance feels almost impossible to understand.
This song is pure, melodic longing. Chayanne pleads for a return so he can breathe again, calling the emptiness in his soul a literal hole in the bed and the heart. The lyrics capture that universal swirl of panic, nostalgia, and hope after love slips away: the desire to replay the last kiss, the insomnia, the constant mental reruns of shared moments. In just a few passionate verses, “De Tanto” turns separation anxiety into a catchy pop ballad that invites listeners to belt out their own heartbreak while secretly rooting for love’s encore.
