Tonterías translates to "nonsense" or "foolishness." It's a common word, but its use here is particularly poignant, setting the emotional tone for the entire song.
Sofía Reyes sings, "Que si dolía no eran tonterías" (That if it hurt, it wasn't nonsense). This line suggests that the pain she felt was real and significant, not just trivial or imagined. It immediately draws the listener into the emotional depth of the lyrics, making them wonder about the story behind such a strong declaration.
Have you ever wished you could go back in time to fix a past mistake in a relationship? That's exactly what Sofía Reyes and Leo Rizzi sing about in "Saberte Querer" [To know how to love you]. This song is all about the pain of realizing you didn't know how to love someone until it was too late.
They sing about feeling what the other person used to say, "Que si dolía no eran tonterías" [That if it hurt, it wasn't nonsense]. The singers regret not having the love the other person asked for, admitting "No lo conocía, ni yo lo tenía" [I didn't know it, nor did I have it]. Now, they're left wondering if it's too late to change their story, asking for "una noche más" [one more night] and wishing for an "invento / Que nos vuelva en el tiempo pa' saberte querer" [invention / That takes us back in time to know how to love you]. It's a really relatable feeling of wanting to rewrite history and learn to love better.
