Es Tarde Lyrics in English Juanes

Es Tarde captures the moment you finally realise a past love has lost its power over you. Juanes paints a vivid picture of closed doors and fading memories, showing how someone who once seemed unforgettable can become just another face in the crowd. The chorus’s repeated question “¿A dónde irá el amor?” feels like tossing an old photograph into the wind, trusting that time and distance will carry it away.

At its core, the song is a declaration of freedom. The narrator moves from heartbreak to self-assurance, proudly saying “Ya te olvidé” and relishing the peace that comes with letting go. The rainclouds of sorrow drift off, the sun rises, and what remains is a lesson: love can teach you to feel deeply, but it can also teach you to heal. "Es Tarde" reminds listeners that even the darkest nights end in dawn, and sometimes the best answer to a knock on the door of the past is simply, “no.”
