Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Toda la noche
Jugando con tu cintura
Mi piel desnuda
Deseos que duelen tanto
Y tu no me escuchas
Lo veo y siento el frio
Con el alma en un hilo estoy por ti
Por tu querer
No me quieres oir porque el amor
No te hizo bien
Con el alma en un hilo estoy por ti
Por tu amor
Olvida ese temor confia en mi
Y quiereme
Deseos de hallar tu cara
Sobre mi almohada
Jugando con tu cabello
Sobre mi espalda
Deseos que duelen tanto y tu no me escuchas
Lo veo y siento el frio sigue la lucha
Con el alma en un hilo estoy por ti
Por tu querer
No me quieres oir porque el amor
No te hizo bien
Con el alma en un hilo estoy por ti
Por tu amor
Olvida ese temor confia en mi
Y quiereme
The lyrics to Afonso Pais/Albert Sanz/R.J. Miller Trio's song "Con Alma" delve deep into the complexities of desire, longing, and unrequited love. The singer expresses intense yearning to be with their loved one, spending the entire night playing with their waist and feeling the closeness of their naked skin. These desires are portrayed as aching and somewhat painful, as the loved one seems to be distant and not listening, leaving the singer feeling cold and disconnected.
Despite the emotional turmoil and the pain of unreciprocated feelings, the singer remains hanging by a thread of hope for their beloved. The phrase "Con el alma en un hilo estoy por ti" encapsulates this sentiment beautifully, conveying the vulnerability and fragility of their emotional state. They are willing to endure this emotional struggle for the sake of their love, but the fear of rejection and the scars left by past failed relationships linger, making it difficult for the loved one to fully trust and open up.
The lyrics also touch upon the longing for intimacy and closeness, symbolized by the desire to see their loved one's face on their pillow and play with their hair on their back. This intimate imagery highlights the depth of the singer's feelings and the yearning for a connection that seems just out of reach. The repeated theme of feeling unheard and facing the harsh reality of a cold response adds layers of emotional complexity to the song, painting a poignant picture of unfulfilled love and the struggle to bridge the gap between two hearts.
Ultimately, the plea to forget the fear and trust in the singer's love echoes throughout the lyrics, emphasizing the importance of mutual understanding, communication, and vulnerability in a relationship. The message to "quiereme" (love me) serves as a poignant call for acceptance and emotional reciprocity, urging the loved one to let go of their past hurts and insecurities and embrace the possibility of a deeper connection. In essence, "Con Alma" captures the bittersweet essence of love and longing, portraying the delicate dance of emotions and the resilience required to navigate the complexities of the heart.
