Imagine flipping through a calendar, page after page, and realizing every single square still echoes the same name. That is the heartbeat of “Pasan Los Días,” where Mexican singer-songwriter Natalia Lafourcade paints the ache of missing someone across minutes, hours, and whole lifetimes. She sings of a love so big it should conquer distance, yet she finds herself stuck between memory and reality, asking how to breathe in a world that suddenly feels empty.
The song is a bittersweet cocktail of longing and stubborn hope. Each chorus counts the days while the verses confess an unwavering desire to hold, kiss, and grow with the absent lover. Even as she doubts whether love is “sufficient” to bring them back together, her repeated plea — “Solo quiero quererte” (I only want to love you) — keeps the flame alive. In the end, “Pasan Los Días” invites listeners to feel the tension between time passing and love persisting, reminding us that distance might stretch the heart, but it never quite breaks it.
