Dear Tommy

I write you this letter

I don't know if you really read these letters

I write you to ask you for something

That for me is life or death

Don't think that I exaggerate, it's the truth

My name is Paco

And I'm writing you from Santiago

There's a girl that won't leave my mind

That's what you're so eloquent for

And she loves your songs

You can already imagine where I'm going

It's that with her

Words won't come out

And maybe

You could help me

To tell her that I die here for her

In a way a little more poetic

That this thing called romanticism

Doesn't come easily to me

Give me something so pretty

That pulls a thousand sighs from her

Tell her that I love her and nothing else

I don't know if it'll be enough

Mr. Tommy

Here I write you again

You haven't answered me

I thought you were a good guy

You might be very busy

But I'm desperate

Help me find the way

To tell her that I die here for her

But in a way a little more poetic

That this thing called romanticism

Doesn't come easily to me

Give me something so pretty

Something that nobody has ever told her

Tell her that I love her and nothing else

I don't know if it'll be enough

Friend Paco

Sorry for the delay

I hope that it doesn't bother you

That I copied your story here

In love I'm no expert

I don't know where you got that

And nothing could be farther from the truth

Don't confuse

Wordiness with feelings

Metaphors are just w*nks of the intellect

If you ask me what to tell your girl

Just tell her that you die for her

No better way occurs to me

That this thing called romanticism

It's just a chess game

When it comes to feelings

There's nothing like being direct

Tell her that you love her and nothing else

It'll surely be enough

SONG MEANING

Ever wished your favorite artist could ghost-write your love confession? That is exactly what happens in “Querido Tommy”. Paco, a hopeless romantic from Santiago, pens frantic letters to Puerto Rican singer-songwriter Tommy Torres, begging for the perfect, poetic line to win over the girl of his dreams. He is convinced that catchy lyrics and flowery metaphors will do the trick, because “eso del romanticismo a mí no se me da.”

Tommy’s answer flips the script. Instead of handing over glittering verses, he reminds Paco that true feelings beat fancy wording every time. Love is not chess; it is sincerity. In the end, the best line is the simplest one: “Dile que la amas y nada más.” The song’s playful back-and-forth shows that authenticity speaks louder than any elaborate rhyme, turning a humorous fan letter into a heartfelt lesson about honest expression.
