"Acompañame A Estar Solo" is a song written by Guatemalan singer-songwriter Ricardo Arjona for his tenth studio album, Adentro (2005). It was produced by Arjona, Dan Warner, Lee Levin and Tommy Torres and performed by Arjona. The song was one of the two demos Arjona sent to Torres the "hookiest and darkest tracks" he had before working with him on the production of Adentro, the other being "Iluso". Torres heavily worked on them, finally grabbing the attention of Arjona.

"Acompañame A Estar Solo" was released as the album's lead single on October 25, 2005, and became Arjona's sixth top ten hit on the Billboard Latin Songs chart, reaching No.7. It became his first lead single not to reach No.1 position on that chart, after "Desnuda", "Cuándo" and "El Problema". The song was nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year at the Latin Grammy Awards of 2006, losing on both categories to Shakira's song "La Tortura".

Adentro was the first time Arjona collaborated with Tommy Torres. Arjona commented that it was "a very representative and tremendously complete album," adding that "having different producers made it rich in possibilities." Arjona proved new sounds in Adentro. Evan Gutierrez from Allmusic considered the instrumentation, performance, and overall sonic palette to be "minimalist" and "unassuming". "Acompañame A Estar Solo" is a latin pop song written by Ricardo Arjona and produced by Arjona, Dan Warner, Lee Levin and Puerto Rican singer-songwriter Tommy Torres, who also arranged the song. On an interview, the singer commented that he first "tested" Torres by sending him the "hookiest and darkest tracks" on the album, "Acompañame A Estar Solo" and "Iluso". Torres said that he "went all out on the first demo, hiring a full band that included a string orchestra", which grabbed the attention of Arjona.
