It was one of those days
When nothing ever happens
La Merced was partying
And summer was ending
I walked in by chance
To a seedy bathroom
And there it was, merciless
Luck waiting for me
Spoiled by alcohol, it smiled at me more
It smiled at me more
And you come and you go
You lift me to the sky
You bite my mouth and in free fall, I want
And you come and you go
Like a mirage
Neither were you that real nor did I feel the same
From a plank we made ourselves
A refuge so perfect
We escaped well together
From what scared us
At the morning coffee, we were already different
Different again
And you come and you go
You lift me to the sky
You bite my mouth and in free fall I want
And you come and you go like a mirage
Neither were you that real nor did I feel the same
The season changes and you taste different
My dreams dance according to the current
We say goodbye to what never reached us
Four conformists breathe down your neck
A life is trivialized in the magazine
The most immediate boils down to nothing
We've learned to point and we leave for nothing
The story is told depending on who keeps it quiet
And in the street is when I run into you the most
And you come and you go
You lift me to the sky
You bite my mouth and in free fall I want
And you come and you go
Like a mirage
Nor were you that real
And you come and you go
You lift me to the sky
You bite my mouth and in free fall I want
And you come and you go
Like a mirage
Neither were you that real nor did I feel the same
And you come and you go
You lift me to the sky
You bite my mouth and in free fall I want
And you come and you go
And you come and you go
Nor were you that real

SONG MEANING

Caída Libre paints the picture of a love affair that bursts into life by sheer accident. On what seems like an unremarkable day during the end-of-summer fiestas in Málaga’s La Merced, the narrator steps into a shabby restroom and, almost magically, collides with fate. Fueled by alcohol and adrenaline, the encounter rockets her “to the sky,” only to send her plunging back in “free fall.” The lyrics capture that rush of first attraction – stolen kisses, dizzy smiles, and the intoxicating promise that something extraordinary might bloom from nothing.

Yet this spark proves to be a mirage. Just as quickly as the lover appears, they drift away, leaving the singer questioning what was real and what was merely wishful thinking. Seasons shift, morning coffee feels different, and the pair’s improvised “perfect refuge” dissolves under daylight. Vanesa Martín uses vivid imagery to explore fleeting passion, the stories we tell ourselves, and the bittersweet acceptance that some connections are meant to be brief. In the end, “Caída Libre” celebrates the thrill of taking emotional risks while acknowledging that not every leap lands safely – and that’s precisely what makes the ride unforgettable.
