Contigo Lyrics in English Sebastian Yatra , Pablo Alborán

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Contigo by Sebastian Yatra from Spanish to English.
Once again a morning and it hurts to wake up
Once again a guitar and it hurts me to play
Once again a week in the same café
Once again a song that you're not gonna hear
I never said, 'don't leave', I should've said it
I never said that I love you, I didn't wanna hurt us
I never said that I'm waiting for you, but I'm still here
I never said that I'm sorry, yet I really was
When it was you and me, I wanted that the day would last longer
That I was gonna lose you so easily, I didn't know it
This love went by as fast as this life
And here I am
Tearing my voice apart
Looking for you and singing among the people
So that inevitably you hear me
And know that it's me
The same one you lost among the people
The one who loves you forever and is gonna come back
With you
And is always gonna dream about you
And every dawn with you
I'd give everything to come back
With you
I return to your name, I return to the waiting
I go back to doubting, even if it's for a second
Distance slams into every future
And I stay staring at the glass
Believing in your unreal reflection
I undo the knot in my throat
If time lets me sing to you again, and
When it was you and me, I wanted that the day would last longer
That I was gonna lose you so easily, I didn't know
This love went by as fast as this life
And here I am
Tearing my voice apart
Looking for you and singing among the people
So that inevitably you hear me
And know that it's me
The same one you lost among the people
The one who loves you forever and is gonna come back
With you
And is always gonna dream about you
And every dawn with you
I'd give everything to come back
With you
With you

SONG MEANING

Contigo means with you in Spanish, and that simple phrase is the heart of this bittersweet duet by Colombian singer-songwriter Sebastián Yatra and Spanish crooner Pablo Alborán. The lyrics paint the picture of a man who wakes up every morning to the same coffee, the same guitar, and the same ache of knowing his loved one is gone. He lists everything he never said—“no te vayas,” “te quiero,” “lo siento”—and now he clings to the only tool he has left: his voice. By singing the words out loud, he hopes she will hear him in the crowd and realize that the one she lost is still waiting, still loving, still dreaming of life contigo.

The song blends gentle guitars with soaring vocal harmonies to mirror the emotional roller-coaster of regret and hope. Each chorus erupts like a confession, promising that he will always dream, wake, and start over with her if fate allows. It is a universal story of missed chances and the fragile belief that true love can circle back, wrapped in the warm Latin pop sound that both artists are loved for. Whether you are learning Spanish or just love heartfelt ballads, “Contigo” invites you to feel every note and maybe even whisper the words you have been holding back.
