It's been two years and a day that I've lived without him

It's been two years and a day that I haven't seen him again

And even though I haven't been happy, I learned to live without his love

But while I was forgetting, suddenly one night he came back

Who is it?

What are you coming to look for?

It's already late

Because now I'm the one that wants to be without you

So go, forget my name, my face, my house

And turn around

Go, forget my eyes, my hands, my lips

that don't want you

Go, forget that I exist, that you met me

And don't be surprised

Forget everything, because you're the one that has experience at that

In search of emotions one day I left

From a world of sensations that I didn't find

And when I discovered that it was all a big fantasy, I came back

Because I understood that I wanted the things that live in you

Goodbye

There's nothing else to talk about

Goodbye

Because now I'm the one that wants to be without you

So go, forget my name, my face, my house

And turn around

Go, forget my eyes, my hands, my lips

that don't want you

Go, forget that I exist, that you met me

And don't be surprised

Forget everything, because you're the one that has experience at that

So go, forget my name, my face, my house

And turn around

Go, forget my eyes, my hands, my lips

that don't want you

Go, forget that I exist, that you met me

And don't be surprised

Forget everything, because you for that

have experience

SONG MEANING

“Olvídame Y Pega La Vuelta” is a fiery musical tug-of-war between two ex-lovers. After two years and a day apart, the man comes knocking, hoping to rekindle what once was. Jennifer Lopez answers with a firm, almost theatrical “Who is it?” then slams the door on nostalgia. She lists everything he must erase—her name, face, house, eyes, hands, lips—showing learners a barrage of vivid vocabulary while asserting her newfound independence.

Marc Anthony pleads his side of the story, confessing that he left chasing “emotions” and “sensations” only to discover they were an illusion. Yet the chorus flips back to J-Lo’s bold command: “Vete… y pega la vuelta” (“Go… and turn around”). The duet becomes a dramatic lesson on self-respect, closure, and saying goodbye when love no longer serves you. In short, the song is a passionate Spanish-language anthem about reclaiming your power when an old flame tries to reignite.
