Romeo Santos' song "Ciudadana" is a romantic ode to a long-distance relationship, expressing the singer's longing to be reunited with his beloved. The lyrics describe the singer's anticipation of his flight to her country, his memories of their time together, and his frustration with the obstacles that keep them apart. He expresses his desire to make time move faster so that they can be together again, and ultimately declares that she is a citizen of his heart. The song is a passionate plea for the power of love to overcome the tyranny of distance.

The flight is scheduled for twelve
In ten hours I land in your country
That same old hotel from that night
I have faith to see you there again
You know that for you I invent four hundred days in the calendar
Tomorrow at twelve and a half we are devouring
Chorus 1
Love, those four letters mark your destiny
Separated, nevertheless, so united
This is so special
I curse the distance, I prefer to be with you
That magic, that power falls into your hands
Very absurd that we're separated
But life is like this
Already they denied the visa and it has me tormented
Verse 2
If you're ever going to tell our story
Make it clear that I loved you
There is no passport or law that opposes
There is no government that can beat us
Love is power
Damn tyranny and its conditions
The cause of which you're far from me
In Havana where we gave each other loves
Estranged, destined to suffer
You know that for you I invent four hundred days in the calendar
Tomorrow at twelve and a half we are devouring
Chorus 2
Love, those four letters mark your destiny
Separated, nevertheless, so united
This is so special
I curse the distance, I prefer to be with you
That magic, that power falls into your hands
Very absurd that we're separated
But life is like this
Already they denied the visa and it has me tormented
Ladies and gentlemen, I will welcome you to Havana, Cuba
In a few hours I see you alone
How do we speed up time?
May the waves be witnesses
Because already you are a citizen of my body
