Ganas De Verte Lyrics in English J Balvin

Home / Lyrics Translation / J Balvin / Ganas De Verte

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ganas De Verte by J Balvin from Spanish to English.

You want to lie to yourself

And that's normal

It happened to me too

But believe me that I'm still the same

Today I want to see you

We need to talk

We said that it was forever

I haven't forgotten, not yet

Today I want you

Of what we used to do before

Babe, I've been patient

I haven't forgotten that you're mine, babe

I couldn't take it anymore and I sent you a text

Today I don't want to sleep alone in my room

I don't know if I'm doing what's right

But I missed saying a couple of things

We need to talk, come on, cooperate

That waiting is killing me

I know that you've got a thousand out there who'd give anything

So they'd get one night with you

But none of them makes you feel

What you feel with me

I'm gonna explode if I don't tell you that

Today I want to see you

We need to talk

We said that it was forever

I haven't forgotten, not yet

Today I want you

Of what we used to do before

Babe, I've been patient

I haven't forgotten that you're mine, babe

I understood that I had to live without you

I saw you with someone else and I got offended

I lost my calm, I dared to call you

I deleted your number, but I memorized it

And life keeps spinning me around

And I'm walking in a straight line

It's an up and down and it's hard

Nobody has a perfect relationship

Life keeps spinning me around

And I'm walking in a straight line

It's an up and down and it's hard

Nobody has a perfect relationship

Today I want to see you

We need to talk

We said that it was forever

I haven't forgotten, not yet

Today I want you

Of what we used to do before

Babe, I've been patient

I haven't forgotten that you're mine, babe

I understood that I had to live without you

I saw you with someone else and I got offended

SONG MEANING

Ever sent a midnight text you weren’t sure was a good idea? That’s exactly where Colombian superstar J Balvin finds himself in “Ganas De Verte.” Over a smooth reggaetón beat he confesses a sudden, overwhelming urge to see his ex, replaying memories of promises made para siempre and the chemistry they once shared. The song captures that tug-of-war between pride and longing, when you know moving on is the smart choice but your heart insists on one more chance.

Balvin’s lyrics paint love as a roller coaster: jealousy when he spots her with someone new, frustration at the waiting game, yet an unshakable belief that nadie te hace sentir lo que sientes conmigo. By admitting his flaws and the ups and downs of any relationship, he reminds us that no romance is perfect—yet some connections are too strong to erase. “Ganas De Verte” is both a vulnerable apology and a hopeful invitation, perfect for anyone who’s ever battled the late-night longing to hit “send.”
