Below, I translated the lyrics of the song LEJOS DEL CIELO by Rauw Alejandro from Spanish to English.

Chorus 1

Where? Where are you?

I've been calling for a while, answer

The hands of the clock aren't moving

You have me up in the air flying, but far from the sky

Even though losing you is scary, honestly it's better that you tell me no

Where? Where are you?

I've been calling for a while, answer

The hands of the clock aren't moving

You have me up in the air flying, but far from the sky

Even though losing you is scary, honestly it's better that you tell me no

Verse 1

One forgives, but who erases the scars?

Without warning life throws you a couple of quizzes

I've got over ten drafts of the letter that I wrote

And still I don't know if you're gonna understand what it says

What's the use of having a fortune if inside I'm breaking?

I close this chapter

It'll be a rest for my brain

Just crying, but in a Ferrari, yeah

Bridge

Bad one, you were bad

You were bad, don't be bad

Let me do it to you

For the last time in my bed

Chorus 2

Where? Where are you?

I've been calling for a while, answer

The hands of the clock aren't moving

You have me up in the air flying, but far from the sky

Even though losing you is scary, honestly it's better that you tell me no

Verse 2

Like when flowers aren't watered

Babe, I'm sad, I'm sad

If I had you screaming in the room, why'd you leave if you came?

I used to sleep easy, now I can't find sleep

I'm hitting the streets to cool down this hell

A couple of chicks ask me to be their owner

I've got a broken heart, but I don't show it

Babe, armored from head to toe, God protects me

I rise up badder from every fall

Watch me at the club, grinding, posted up in a corner

I thought I did, but the truth is I didn't know you

Chorus 3

Where? Where are you?

I've been calling for a while, answer

The hands of the clock aren't moving

You have me up in the air flying, but far from the sky

Even though losing you is scary, honestly it's better that you tell me no

SONG MEANING

Rauw Alejandro’s “Lejos del Cielo” feels like sending a text that never delivers. Throughout the track, the Puerto Rican star dials and redials a lover who refuses to pick up, leaving him suspended “in the air, flying but far from heaven.” The lyrics mix desperation with raw honesty: he’s afraid to lose her, yet he’d rather hear a firm “no” than remain stuck in emotional limbo. Each unanswered call makes time itself freeze, as if the clock’s hands have stopped moving.

Behind the catchy reggaetón beat lies a confession of heartbreak. Rauw reflects on scars that apologies can’t erase, drafts and redrafts love letters he’s unsure will ever be understood, and masks his pain on the dance-floor while telling himself he’ll rise stronger after every fall. The song captures that bittersweet space between love and letting go—where your heart hovers just out of reach of paradise, learning that sometimes the bravest move is to close the chapter and heal.
