If I had to choose between the light of the morning and the light of her gaze

When it gets here in my soul

If I had to choose from a thousand loves the ones I want

Or have her alone

While existence lasts

If I had to choose between suffering her love back

If living in a palace or dying in front of her door

I stay with her hands fitting my skin

I stay with her anguish one step from falling

I stay with her body the hours that are needed

I love her like this, loving me

I stay as I was by her side and at her feet

I stay with the dreams that I had and didn't achieve

I stay with her body the hours that are needed

With everything that I know and what I don't know

If I had to choose between the seven wonders

Or stuck here on my lips seven nights, seven days

If I had to choose between a million solitudes

I would stay with hers, it's the best of my evils

If I had to choose between suffering her love back

If living in a palace or dying in front of her door

I stay with her hands fitting my skin

I stay with her anguish one step from falling

I stay with her body the hours that are needed

I love her like this, loving me

I stay as I was by her side and at her feet

I stay with the dreams that I had and didn't achieve

I stay with her body the hours that are needed

With everything that I know and what I don't know

If I have to choose between oxygen and her love

Breathe mouth to mouth the heart

I stay with her body the hours that are needed

I love her like this, loving me

I stay as I was by her side and at her feet

I stay with the dreams that I had and didn't achieve

I stay with her body the hours that are needed

With everything that I know and what I don't know

SONG MEANING

If you had to pick just one treasure, would it be gold, glory, or love? In “Si Tuviera Que Elegir,” Latin pop legend Ricardo Montaner builds a playful yet passionate list of impossible choices – sunlight or her gaze, the Seven Wonders or seven nights of kisses, oxygen or her love – and always lands on the same answer: she wins every time. The song is a joyful declaration that no palace, no dream, not even breath itself can compete with the thrill of holding the person who makes his heart race.

Montaner’s lyrics sparkle with hyperbole to show how utterly inseparable he feels from his beloved. He prefers “her anguish one step from falling” to a life of comfort, proving that love’s highs and lows beat any safe alternative. By repeating “me quedo” – “I’ll stay” or “I choose” – he turns the chorus into a mantra of devotion, teaching us a romantic Spanish phrase while inviting us to sing along. In short, this track is a musical love letter that reminds us that when love is genuine, every other option fades into background noise.
