Verse 1

You didn't want to believe that we hurt each other

I didn't want to think that I could lose you

Today it hurts to pretend that we're two strangers

And only it's okay to talk to you on your birthday

But you and I know that it's for our good

Prechorus 1

If it makes sense again

That I come back to be with you

There will be an insurmountable advantage over others

If it makes sense again

That I come back to be with you

Chorus 1

We won't have to start from zero anymore

Or: We won't have to start from scratch anymore

Because I'm an expert at deciphering you

I know exactly when to give you a kiss

And when to save a kiss and hug you

We won't have to start from zero anymore

Unless you forget me

In that case my only consolation

It will be to hope that if I pray to heaven

Maybe I won't have to start from zero to make you fall in love

Or: Maybe I don't have to start from scratch to make you fall in love

Verse 2

I don't want to get in your calendar anymore

Nor hurt you with some maybe, no

'Hacer daño' literally translates as 'to do damage' and means 'to hurt' / 'to cause pain'

There are many fish in the sea every day

But history has said otherwise

Or: But history has said on the contrary

We both swim in the same aquarium

Or: The two of us swim in the same aquarium

And I know that you see it

Chorus 2

If it makes sense again

That I come back to be with you

We won't have to start from zero anymore

Or: We won't have to start from scratch anymore

Because I'm an expert at deciphering you

I know exactly when to give you a kiss

And when to save a kiss and hug you

We won't have to start from zero anymore

Unless you forget me

In that case my only consolation

It will be to hope that if I pray to heaven

Maybe I won't have to start from zero to make you fall in love

Chorus 3

We won't have to start from zero anymore

Because you were my full stop

I know exactly when to give you a kiss

And when to save a kiss and hug you

We won't have to start from zero anymore

Unless you forget me

In that case my only consolation

It will be to hope that if I pray to heaven

Maybe I won't have to start from zero to make you fall in love

SONG MEANING

In De Cero, Colombian band Morat sings about that awkward limbo after a breakup when both people know they are better apart yet secretly hope for a sequel. The narrator admits that they once hurt each other and now only feel "allowed" to talk on birthdays, but deep inside they believe their shared history is an unbeatable advantage. Why start over with someone new when you already speak your ex’s love language? He proudly calls himself an "expert" at reading her moods—he knows the perfect moment for a kiss or when to swap it for a hug.

The song’s bittersweet charm lies in its mix of realism and optimism. Morat recognizes that moving on is healthy, but also confesses a wish: if they ever cross paths again, they will not have to begin "from zero." The only real fear is being forgotten. Until then, the singer keeps faith that love—and perhaps a little help from the heavens—will grant them another chance to pick up right where the last chorus faded out.
