Bésame Lyrics

[Intro: Shakira]
Ah-ahh
Ah-ahh
Ahhh

[Verso 1: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira]
Te digo la verdad (Uh)
Si la vida es bonita tú y ellas son tan parecidas
Al final no me atrevo a dejar que el destino decida
Si existe algún riesgo de verme sin ti
Yo no quiero apostar (Ummm)

[Verso 2: Shakira]
Te aviso desde ya
Por si no lo notaste hace tiempo esto ya no es broma
Ni con todo el café de Colombia me quito tu aroma
A tu boca perdona
Pero me quiero pegar
Te quieres pegar

[Coro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
No lo pienses tanto y bésame
Que se acaben los misterios
Bésame de una vez
Cero miedo vamo’ enserio pa’ adelante
A quién le duela, que se aguante
Ya no tienes que ir atrás
Mejor ven pásate al volante
No lo pienses tanto y bésame
Que se acaben los misterios
Bésame de una vez
Cero miedo vamo’ enserio pa’ adelante
A quién le duela, que se aguante
Ya no tienes que ir atrás
Mejor ven pásate al volante(Ahh)

[Post-Coro: Shakira]
Ah-ahh
Ah-ahh
Uhhh

[Verso 3: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
Te escribí esta cancion y una lista de cosas pendientes
La primera es hacerte el amor con carácter urgente
La segunda quedarme pa’ siempre
La tercera es como la primera
Un pero más urgentemente

[Pre-Coro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
Todo lo que quiero lo quiero contigo
Si tú eres mi reina yo soy tu rey
Quiéreme sin pena no hay nada contigo
Por dentro y por fuera soy como me vez amor
Me haces mejor
Que más te digo
Mira vámonos

[Coro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
No lo pienses tanto y bésame
Que se acaben los misterios
Bésame de una vez
Cero miedo vamo’ enserio pa’ adelante
A quién le duela, que se aguante
El amor no es pasajero
Cuando vamos al volante

[Post-Coro: Shakira]
Ahhh

[Puente: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
La otra noche soñé contigo
La otra noche soñé contigo
Que me estaba muriendo de frío
Me calentó tu mirada
La otra noche soñé contigo
La otra noche soñé contigo
Que me estaba muriendo de frío
Me calentó tu mirada

[Coro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
Bésame
Que se acaben los misterios
Bésame de una vez
Cero miedo vamo’ enserio pa’ adelante
A quién le duela, que se aguante
Ya no tienes que ir atrás
Mejor ven pásate al volante (Ahh)

[Outro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira]
Ahhh-ahhh
Ahhh-ahhh
Ahhh-ahhh
Auuu

Bésame Lyrics Meaning

[Intro: Shakira]
The intro sets the tone for the song with Shakira’s ethereal vocalizations, evoking a sense of yearning and emotional vulnerability. Her soft “Ah-ahh”s build anticipation and signal the emotional depth to come, serving as a prelude to the heartfelt dialogue that follows.

[Verso 1: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira]
Alejandro opens with a reflection on fate and love, comparing life’s beauty to the person he addresses. He confesses his fear of letting destiny choose if it might mean losing her, revealing a hesitancy rooted in love. Shakira echoes this emotional tension, suggesting a reluctance to gamble with something so important. Together, their voices present a mutual acknowledgment of the stakes involved in their connection.

[Verso 2: Shakira]
Shakira takes a more direct tone, warning that their relationship has evolved far beyond casual affection. She playfully references Colombian coffee to express how deeply the other person’s presence lingers on her—emotionally and physically. Her candid desire to be close, to the point of obsession, highlights her emotional transparency and readiness to dive into love without restraint.

[Coro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
The chorus is a powerful plea to abandon fear and hesitation. Sanz and Shakira urge each other to embrace their feelings fully, letting go of secrecy and doubts. The phrase “bésame” (kiss me) is a symbolic request for emotional truth and intimacy. The metaphor of switching seats to take control (“pásate al volante”) represents actively steering the relationship forward, reinforcing the song’s theme of bold love.

[Post-Coro: Shakira]
Following the intensity of the chorus, Shakira’s soft vocalizations serve as a soothing, reflective moment. It reinforces the lingering emotion of the plea while keeping the listener immersed in the song’s sensual rhythm.

[Verso 3: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
This verse shifts to declarations of intent, with Sanz offering a romantic to-do list. Each item escalates in emotional significance—from physical connection to lifelong commitment—culminating in a repeated urgency to act on love. The lyrical progression shows the depth of feeling and the desire to turn passion into permanence.

[Pre-Coro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
In this section, both artists affirm their devotion and emotional compatibility. Sanz embraces his role as her equal, while Shakira acknowledges the emotional improvement love brings. They collectively reject shame and fear, underscoring that their love is not just emotional but transformative, making them better together.

[Coro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
The chorus returns with renewed strength, reinforcing the song’s core message. This time, there’s a subtle lyrical evolution suggesting that their connection isn’t fleeting—it’s not a “passenger” love. The reaffirmation of emotional control through the “volante” metaphor signals that they’ve moved from pleading to certainty.

[Post-Coro: Shakira]
Shakira’s lingering “Ahhh”s here add a dreamy, almost wistful texture. It bridges the intensity of the chorus with the emotional depth of the following bridge, maintaining the song’s emotional flow.

[Puente: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
The bridge introduces a more intimate, dreamlike narrative. Both singers recall a shared dream where love provided warmth in the cold. This metaphor highlights how their emotional bond transcends physical presence, offering comfort even in imagined moments, reinforcing the depth and necessity of their connection.

[Coro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira & Ambos]
The final chorus is a triumphant culmination of their emotional journey. The urgency remains, but there’s now a sense of resolution. The repeated invitation to kiss acts as a final push toward surrendering completely to love, with no turning back—only forward, together.

[Outro: Alejandro Sanz, Shakira]
The outro mirrors the intro’s haunting harmonies, creating a cyclical emotional arc. Their voices fade out in harmony, suggesting continuity—an echo of the enduring love they’ve just committed to.
