Qué Ganas Lyrics in English Morat

Home / Lyrics Translation / Morat / Qué Ganas

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Qué Ganas by Morat from Spanish to English.

When I saw you

I could only think about all the time that I lost

Because my life changed suddenly and I understood it

When I saw you

You said goodbye

And before you spoke your eyes already screamed it's over

And even though I put everything on the line for you it wasn't enough for you

You said goodbye

But don't look for me anymore

And don't pretend that you're easy to forget

What do you gain by showing up if you'll still leave with the wind?

What do you gain by slipping into every single song?

What do you gain by pulling the truth out of me when I lie?

And I fail in the attempt to hide my love from you

I lose my head, I lose sleep

I lose my reason, I lose my voice

But I don't know what you gain by stealing my heart

We were both

The ones who, at times, mixed up madness with love

And it's not your fault if that being crazy didn't work out

We were both

But don't look for me anymore

And don't pretend that you're easy to forget

What do you gain by showing up if you'll still leave with the wind?

I know that you gain something

What do you gain by slipping into every single song?

What do you gain by pulling the truth out of me when I lie?

And I fail in the attempt to hide my love from you

I lose my head, I lose sleep

I lose my reason, I lose my voice

But I don't know what you gain by stealing my heart

You leave and you don't give me time to miss you

And you hide your intention to come back

I've always been a vulnerable target

And I never saw that you were guilty of knowing where to aim

What do you gain by showing up if you'll still leave with the wind?

What do you gain by slipping into every single song?

Because surely you gain something

What do you gain by pulling the truth out of me when I lie?

When I lie

And I fail in the attempt to hide my love from you

I didn't hide it better

I lose my head, I lose sleep

I lose my reason, I lose my voice

But I don't know what you gain by stealing my heart

SONG MEANING

Qué Ganas is Morat’s witty yet heartfelt confession of post-breakup confusion. The Colombian band paints the moment you run into an ex and instantly feel every lost second. The singer recalls how his life flipped when he first saw her, how her silent goodbye spoke louder than words, and how, despite betting everything on the relationship, it was not enough.

The chorus revolves around the burning question “¿Qué ganas?” (What do you gain?): what does she get from drifting back into his mind, sneaking into every song, and exposing his true feelings whenever he tries to lie about moving on? He lists all he loses—his head, sleep, reason, and voice—while she “steals” his heart over and over. The track captures that bittersweet tug-of-war where love feels like madness, blame is shared, and the ex remains an inescapable melody riding on the wind.
