When are we going to talk, babe?
Could we leave it for later?
Let's trust that it'll be better
And cover the sun again with a finger
Deep down I know it very well
That it's been a long time since we were okay
Who'd have thought, babe
This cold that now hovers around our home
And that the only conversation
Is between two sad silences that don't end
Deep down you know it well
That it's been a long time since we've been okay
Tell me-eh-eh-eh-eh
What were we missing to make it?
If I reached your love the way I did
I'm sure I'll find some way out
Let it hurt what has to hurt
No matter how much I don't want your leaving
If I reached your love the way I did
I'm sure I'll find some way out
If we've got nothing to lose
We deserve a goodbye
Free
We need to talk, babe
If you can barely look me in the eyes
Letting go may be better
Than uselessly hitting rock bottom
Deep down you know it well
That we stopped believing each other
Grant me one last time
That hug that gave me so much calm
And for a few hours pretend
That what we have is strong and doesn't end
That we still have life to live
And promises to keep
If I reached your love the way I did
I'm sure I'll find some way out
Let it hurt what has to hurt
No matter how much I don't want your leaving
If I reached your love the way I did
I'm sure I'll find some way out
If we've got nothing to lose
We deserve a goodbye
If I reached your love the way I did
I'm sure I'll find some way out
Let it hurt what has to hurt
No matter how much I don't want your leaving
If I reached your love the way I did
I'm sure I'll find some way out
If we've got nothing to lose
We deserve a goodbye
If I reached your love the way I did
Let come whatever has to hurt
If I reached your love the way I did
If we've got nothing to lose
We deserve a goodbye

ConcédemeGrant me / Allow me

Concédeme comes from the verb conceder, meaning 'to grant' or 'to concede'. It's a more formal and poignant way to ask for something, carrying a sense of earnest pleading.

In the song, the singer uses it to implore their partner, "Concédeme una última vez ese abrazo que me daba tanta calma" (Grant me one last time that hug that gave me so much calm). It highlights the desperation and longing for a final moment of comfort before an inevitable separation, making it a powerful and emotionally charged word.

Juan Pablo Vega teams up with the ever-charming Ximena Sariñana to paint the bittersweet moment when two lovers finally admit the spark is gone. Tenemos Que Hablar captures that awkward dance of postponing a serious conversation, only to realize the house has grown cold, the silences louder than words, and sunlight is being "covered with a finger." Instead of pointing fingers, they look for the courage to say goodbye with grace, accepting that heartbreak will sting but freedom awaits on the other side.

Throughout the song they revisit memories, ask what went wrong, and beg for one last comforting embrace. The repeated line “Si a tu amor llegué como llegué” (“If I arrived at your love the way I did”) shows humility and hope: they found each other once, so they can surely find a way out now. In essence, the duet is a tender lesson on honesty, closure, and the healing power of a proper farewell.
