Remain
How little remains
Of our love hardly anything remains
Hardly even words
Remain
Remain
It's only silence
That makes the cold, long night explode
The night that doesn't end
That's all that remains
Only the urge to cry remains
On seeing that our love drifts away
Face to face we lower our gaze
Because there's nothing left to talk about
Nothing
Remain
Little tenderness
And sometimes doing something crazy
A kiss, forced
Remain
Remain
A kind gesture
So life won't be unbearable
And thus drown the sorrows
That's all that remains
Only the urge to cry remains
On seeing that our love drifts away
Face to face we lower our gaze
Because there's nothing left to talk about
Nothing
Only the urge to cry remains
On seeing that our love drifts away
Face to face we lower our gaze
Because there's nothing left to talk about
Nothing

SONG MEANING

Frente A Frente invites us into the raw, twilight moment when a romance has finally burned out. Spanish rock legend Enrique Bunbury paints the scene with chilling simplicity: there is almost nothing left of the relationship except silence, a few forced gestures and the heavy urge to cry. Each repetition of “Queda” (“What’s left”) chips away at the couple’s past, counting down the remnant sparks that once kept them alive.

Standing literally face to face, both lovers lower their eyes, realizing conversation can no longer save them. The song captures that bittersweet mix of dignity and heartbreak: trying a polite smile, stealing one last reckless kiss, yet feeling the cold night stretch on forever. It is a melancholic anthem for anyone who has watched love slip away while still sharing the same room—proof that sometimes the loudest goodbye is spoken in complete silence.
