The Loving Meaning of Rauw Alejandro’s ‘Besito En La Frente’ (English Lyrics)

The song is about cherishing a relationship so deeply that even a small gesture—like a kiss on the forehead

Archivado en: Rauw Alejandro  •  

‘Besito en la Frente’ is a love song where Rauw Alejandro dives into passion, gratitude, and the kind of intimacy that feels eternal. The track is part of his album Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0.

At its heart, the song is about cherishing a relationship so deeply that even a small gesture—like a kiss on the forehead—feels loaded with meaning. Rauw describes his partner as free, powerful, and almost spiritual, someone who lifts him up and makes life feel limitless. There’s both sensuality (references to dancing, physical closeness, and desire) and tenderness (the forehead kiss as a symbol of pure love and respect).

The lyrics also play with themes of eternity and fear of loss. He admits that the idea of living without her terrifies him, and even says if she ever leaves, he’d rather burn in fire. But instead of being dark, the tone of the song stays celebratory and romantic, like a dance that refuses to end.

‘Besito En La Frente’ English Lyrics

[Intro]

Eh, eh, ra, ra-ra-ra, eh, yeah
Aeh
Aeh
(Rauw)
What a blessing, what I’m seeing (the sun is rising)
The light on your skin is asking me (to take it slow; yah!)

[Chorus]

Baby, you don’t understand how much I like you
When you go down, you lift me up to heaven
A life without you, I don’t want it (uh-wuh)
Just thinking about losing you scares me (uh-wuh), eh
A little kiss (a little kiss) on the forehead (uh-wuh)
For everything we’ve lived through
And if this moment never comes back
At least I know it wasn’t wasted (yah!)

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh-oh-oh
You and I are eternal
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Eternal (ra-Rauw)

[Verse]

Mami (prru), your soul’s as free as spring
For our love, no borders exist
Tied to you like leather and wood (yah!)
The drum beats, morena
Dance, let the heat slip off your clothes
We won’t leave until our feet can’t take it (ey)
Dancing in your areíto
Promised land, you want me to stay
The water of your flower lifts me higher
Until I reach the sky (ay)
My chest even tightens
The day you’re gone—that day must never come
If you leave, let the fire burn me (mami)
Let the fire burn me

[Chorus]

Baby, you don’t understand how much I like you
When you go down, you lift me up to heaven (uh-wuh)
A life without you, I don’t want it
Just thinking about losing you scares me (yeah), eh
A little kiss (a little kiss) on the forehead
For everything we’ve lived through
And if this moment never comes back
At least I know it wasn’t wasted
