whenever i ask you

What when how and where?

You always answer me

Perhaps perhaps Perhaps

And so the days pass

and I despair

and you answering

Perhaps perhaps Perhaps

You are losing your time

Thinking thinking

For what you want the most

until when until when

whenever i ask you

What when how and where?

You always answer me

Perhaps perhaps Perhaps

And so the days pass

and I despair

and you answering

Perhaps perhaps Perhaps

You are losing your time

Thinking thinking

for what you want the most

until when until when

And so the days pass

and I despair

and you answering

Perhaps perhaps Perhaps

desesperando — despairing / growing desperate

Desesperando comes from the verb desesperar, meaning 'to despair' or 'to lose hope'. It's a strong emotional word that captures the feeling of growing increasingly desperate.

In this classic song, the singer uses desesperando to express their growing frustration and impatience with a lover who constantly responds with "Quizás, quizás, quizás" (Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps) when asked about their future together. It perfectly conveys the emotional toll of uncertainty in a relationship.

Il Divo's take on "Quizás, Quizás, Quizás" is a genuine standard dressed up in four-part harmony, and the drama fits. The setup is simple: someone keeps asking a lover "¿cuándo cómo y dónde?" [when, how and where?] and gets the same non-answer every time. "Quizás, quizás, quizás" [maybe, maybe, maybe] is the whole relationship in three words, repeated until it stops sounding like patience and starts sounding like a stall.

The second verse turns the screw. "Estas perdiendo el tiempo" [you're wasting time], the narrator says, then asks "Hasta cuando hasta cuando" [until when, until when], a question that never gets answered either, which is the joke and the ache of the song at once. Osvaldo Farrés wrote it in 1947 and it's been recorded by everyone from Nat King Cole to Andrea Bocelli, but Il Divo's version leans into the gap between the lush orchestral arrangement and a lyric that is, underneath it, someone quietly losing patience while waiting for a straight answer.
