When you feel that life isn't on your side

Please, don't hesitate to look for me

I know that we're nothing now, but I still have love for you

Please, don't forget

That before being your boyfriend, I was your friend

And that's never going to change

You know that you can count on me

And truth is, it's no trouble to call you

Talk to you, to know how you're doing

It's no trouble for you to call me

Talk to me and ask me 'how are you?'

Open the door because I'm outside with a chocolate

And a bouquet of flowers to remind you

That we can be friends like we were before

And now you come to me with that little face

As if you had never broken a plate

Asking me to forgive you

That it wasn't such a big deal

I'm not like before anymore

Babe, I'm letting you know I'm not up for romances

I left the door open so that you could come in

And I regained my senses, I toast in my heart

There are no seasons left from that relationship

The little kisses on the face, I know it's not what you expected

What was being given is over

I know that what we had didn't work

That I wasn't a good boyfriend

But I'm asking you, babe, not to treat me badly

That you don't hate me

Let's leave that behind

I propose to you that we change the episode

That you're hurt is obvious

But put everything on the scale

And tell me if it's enough for you

What weighs more, love or revenge?

He who stays in the past hardly moves forward

That I become your buddy again, I don't lose hope

Because remember that

That before being your boyfriend, I was your friend and that's never going to change

You know that you can count on me

And truth is, truth is, it's no trouble to call you

Talk to you, to know how you're doing

It's no trouble for you to call me

Talk to me and ask me 'how are you?'

Open the door because I'm outside with a chocolate

And a bouquet of flowers so that you forgive me

And we can be friends like we were before

SONG MEANING

Antes De Novios is a warm, feel-good reminder that love can evolve without disappearing. Mario Bautista, the charismatic artist from the Philippines, teams up with Spain’s Ana Mena to tell the story of two exes who decide to park the drama and roll back the clock to the days when they were just best friends. Over a breezy Latin-pop beat, the singers swap verses packed with playful apologies, chocolate-and-flower peace offerings, and the repeated promise: “Antes de novio, fui amigo” – “Before I was your boyfriend, I was your friend.”

The lyric’s core message is simple yet uplifting: breakups hurt, but friendship can survive if both hearts stay open. Instead of choosing bitterness or revenge, the duo urges each other to call, chat, and check in any time, proving that real care is bigger than titles or labels. It is a catchy lesson in forgiveness, emotional maturity, and the sweet power of saying, “Let’s start a new episode together… as friends.”
