Ausencia
Alberto Beltrán Lyrics

The lyrics to Alberto Beltrán's song "Ausencia" depict the painful experience of separation and the enduring presence of the absent loved one in the singer's life. The first line speaks to the inevitable occurrence of two hearts drifting apart, and the second line highlights the decision to say goodbye in order to forget. However, the third line mentions the persistence of absence, which the singer carries with them in order to facilitate healing from the pain of separation. The following lines express the emotional turmoil that the singer endures as they try to cope with the absence of the loved one. Their thoughts fly far away and their heartbeats are like a mournful melody.

The chorus repeats the singer's attempt to find relief from their pain through absence but expresses a sense of betrayal when it doesn't bring the expected consolation. The singer feels frustrated and helpless because despite their efforts to move on, they cannot forget the absent loved one, and their absence continues to haunt and affect them deeply. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the enduring pain experienced after a separation and the difficult journey of healing and moving on.
