The song’s lyrics revolve around a man who is trying to persuade a woman to leave her current partner for him.

He repeatedly tells her to “dile que bailando te conocí” (tell him that I met you dancing) and “cuéntale que beso mejor que él” (tell him that I kiss better than him), emphasizing his superior qualities and the intense connection they share.

The lines “Que quizás fue la noche la que te traicionó / O el perfume de mi piel lo que te cautivó” (Perhaps it was the night that betrayed you / Or the scent of my skin that captivated you) suggest that the circumstances of their encounter, possibly fueled by alcohol or the thrill of the moment, led her to stray from her relationship.

The protagonist encourages her to admit her feelings for him and not to seek forgiveness from her current partner, as he believes their bond is stronger.

The repetition of “Otra, otra noche, otra” (Another, another night, another) underscores his desire for more time with her, reinforcing the theme of passion and infidelity.

Overall, the song captures the intense emotions and moral complexities of a love triangle.
