The 2017 hit captures a love that pulls between Cuba and Atlanta, half in Spanish, half in English.
The 2017 hit captures a love that pulls between Cuba and Atlanta, half in Spanish, half in English.
The Spanish lines 'Con cada mirada desgarras mi piel' cut deeper than the English verses.
They're raw, almost physical, each look tearing skin, where the English sections feel more like pop narration.

Half of my heart is in Havana, oh na-na
The Spanish lines 'Con cada mirada desgarras mi piel' cut deeper than the English verses. They're raw, almost physical, each look tearing skin, where the English sections feel more like pop narration. The bilingual structure isn't just decoration; it mirrors the divided heart the song describes.
The phrase 'Half of my heart is in Havana, oh na-na' does the heavy lifting. It's not just about missing a place; it's about being physically in one city while your loyalty stays anchored somewhere else. That 'half' admits the split isn't clean, part of you is always elsewhere, pulled by memory or a person.
That 'half' does all the work. It confesses you can't give yourself fully to where you are because something essential stayed behind.
The way 'na-na' hangs in the air after each city name gives the chorus its lingering, unresolved quality.

Havana, oh na-na
Half of my heart is in Havana, oh na-na
He took me back to East, Atlanta na-na-na
All of my heart is in Havana
There's somethin' 'bout this his manners
Tan pronto me vino a buscar lo supe
Me dijo son tantos los que ya tuve
No puedo soltarme no seas tan cruel
Con cada mirada desgarras mi piel
Ya no sé qué hacer
Lo supe en un segundo
Tú cambiarías mi mundo
Ya no puedo más
Y es que me duele mucho
Decir adiós, oh na-na na-na
La Habana, oh na-na
Mi corazón está en la Habana, oh na-na
Ya me llevo devuelta a Atlanta na-na-na
Mi corazón está en la Habana
Mientras su amor me llama, la Habana, oh na-na
Got me feelin' like uh uh uh
I knew it when I met him
I loved when I left him
Got me feelin' like uh uh uh
And then I had to tell him
I had to go, Oh na-na na-na
La Habana, oh na-na
Mi corazón está en la Habana, oh na-na
He took me back to East Atlanta na-na-na
All of my heart is in Havana
My heart is in Havana
La Habana, oh na-na
