The rectangular bed

And the forbidden passions

Feed the songs

And they make us sweat

Your body takes off to fly

The light doesn't want to make noises

And even though that we're hidden

And even though that nobody tells us so

Is there some god that blesses

The forbidden loves?

And between I love you and I love you

Don't see a threat

Is there some god that blesses

To the passing loves?

I want what you want

You want what I want

The light enters straight

Through the window

And my bed in the morning

A perfect geometry

What a favorite madness

Between your skin and the pillow

The muted light passes

Barefoot over your hair

Is there some god that blesses

The forbidden loves?

And between I love you and I love you

Don't see a threat

Is there some god that blesses

To the passing loves?

I want what you want

You want what I want

If someday we get together

And you want something else

Let's enjoy and forget

What the others think

If someday we get together

Like the hummingbird and the flower

Even if it's fleeting

Let's enjoy our love

Is there some god that blesses

The forbidden loves?

And between I love you and I love you

Don't see a threat

Is there some god that blesses

To the passing loves?

I want what you want

You want what I want

If someday we get together

If you want something else

Let's enjoy and forget

What the others think

If someday we get together

Like the hummingbird and the flower

Even if it's fleeting

Let's enjoy our love

SONG MEANING

Amores Prohibidos plunges us into a clandestine room where the only witnesses are a rectangular bed, slivers of light, and two hearts beating a little too loud. Juanes paints a vivid scene of secret passion: lovers who mute the world outside, let their bodies "fly," and turn stolen moments into fiery inspiration for songs. Each sensual detail—the geometry of the sheets, the light tiptoeing across skin—highlights how electric and exhilarating a hidden romance can feel.

Yet beneath the seductive imagery lies a thoughtful question: Is there any god who blesses forbidden or fleeting loves? By repeating this doubt, Juanes invites us to rethink rules and judgments imposed by society. His chorus refuses guilt, urging the pair to embrace what they both desire, even if their union is brief like a hummingbird kissing a flower. The track ultimately celebrates living in the present, savoring connection, and daring to love boldly—no matter how temporary or unconventional that love may be.
