The song "Columbia" by Quevedo tells the story of a person who returns from studying in Columbia to their island with nothing to do. They find the year to be long and filled with responsibilities. However, their perspective changes when they meet someone unexpected. The lyrics describe how this person enters a disco and catches the attention of the protagonist. Despite their initial resistance, they develop a connection and even say "I love you" to someone they initially didn't want anything to do with. The song explores the complexities of a summer romance, acknowledging that it may not last beyond August but still wanting to create lasting memories. The lyrics also touch on the fear of commitment and the doubts that arise in the relationship. The song reflects on the experiences and moments shared during the summer, such as holding hands on the beach, late-night kisses, and singing together. The protagonist hopes that their time together was not in vain and cherishes the healthy relationship they had, which was something they had never experienced before.

He returned from studying in Columbia to the island with nothing to do

The year became long for him, studying and fulfilling his duty

On the phone, his friend tells him that this summer is for drinking

He just wants to go out and not depend on anyone

Until she met me, she didn't expect it

I saw her entering the club, she returned the gaze

A nervous little smile, she got upset between kisses

She let out an 'I love you' to someone she didn't want anything with

Until she met me, she didn't expect it

I saw her entering the club, she returned the gaze

A nervous little smile, she got upset between kisses

She let out an 'I love you' to someone she didn't want anything with

Baby, we both know it's summer and maybe

When August ends, we won't see each other again

But I want to have something for when you're not here

So let's accumulate memories every time I bite your lip

You push me and press me against the wall

Staring at me intensely as if for the last time

I know she studies in the USA and uses me at her will

Baby, I know you

Are very afraid of commitment and so am I

You want to forget me, mmm, hate me

If that helps you, but babe, I have doubts

Because I know it's only you

Laughing while we f*ck in the dimly lit room

We have the last drink and, come on, take care, cheers

And even though she's never been sentimental

Until she met me, she didn't expect it

I saw her entering the club, she returned the gaze

A nervous little smile, she got upset between kisses

She let out an 'I love you' to someone she didn't want anything with

I'm reliving everything we did this summer

Hand in hand on the beach, kisses without 'I love you'

Staying up late to wake up early

You sang my songs while I played the piano

The island felt smaller every time we looked at each other

Listening to reggaeton at 180 in any stretch

She's leaving, but I hope nothing is in vain

I had never had something so healthy

Until she met me, she didn't expect it

I saw her entering the club, she returned the gaze

A nervous little smile, she got upset between kisses

She let out an 'I love you' to someone she didn't want anything with

He returned from studying in Columbia to the island with nothing to do

Good night, yeah

The year became long for him, studying and fulfilling his duty

Good night, good night

On the phone, his friend tells him that this summer is for drinking

He just wants to go out and not depend on anyone
