A song that moves like a dance
Joséan Log doesn’t rush this song.
“Chachachá” feels exactly like its name:
- slow
- intimate
- gently persuasive
It’s not loud love.
It’s the kind that leans in and says: stay a little longer.
The repetition, the softness, the pauses — all of it mirrors a dance where:
- nothing is forced
- everything unfolds

Chachachá – Joséan Log Lyric Translation
Dame de tu vida y de tu tiempo
Give me some of your life and your time
suficientes para ver
enough to see
dentro de tus ojos el momento
inside your eyes the moment
que me obligue a renacer
that forces me to be reborn
Dame vida y dame aliento
Give me life and give me breath
que yo ya perdí el conocimiento
because I have already lost awareness
sólo quédate un momento
just stay for a moment
hasta evaporarnos en el viento
until we evaporate into the wind
No hay motivos
There are no reasons
para decirnos adiós tan pronto
to say goodbye so soon
sigo vivo
I am still alive
créemelo mi amor no soy tan tonto
believe me my love, I am not that foolish
si tú quisieras
if you wanted
esta noche ir a bailar
tonight to go dance
un chachachá
a chachachá
yo te puedo enamorar
I can make you fall in love
Dame de tu vida y de tu tiempo
Give me some of your life and your time
que te quiero conocer
because I want to get to know you
déjame sentir el movimiento
let me feel the movement
de tu cuerpo al florecer
of your body as it blooms
Dame vida y dame aliento
Give me life and give me breath
que yo ya perdí el conocimiento
because I have already lost awareness
sólo quédate un momento
just stay for a moment
hasta evaporarnos en el viento
until we evaporate into the wind

What the song is really saying
This is not about dramatic love.
It’s about:
- asking gently
- staying a little longer
- letting connection happen slowly
The key idea:
“No hay motivos para decirnos adiós tan pronto”
There is no reason to rush an ending.
It’s a soft rebellion against:
- overthinking
- rushing relationships
- leaving too early
