Amigo
Alberto Vazquez & Joan Sebastian Lyrics

The lyrics of "Amigo" by Alberto Vazquez and Joan Sebastian delve into the complexities of unrequited love and the acceptance of being relegated to the role of a friend rather than a romantic partner. The singer expresses their deep feelings for the subject, emphasizing their love for her soul, eyes, and mouth. However, the response from the subject is that they only see the singer as a friend, setting the tone for a platonic relationship going forward.

Despite the singer's declaration that they are willing to wait for the subject due to their immense love, the subject reveals that they also have feelings for someone else, making any romantic prospect between them impossible. This realization leads the singer to come to terms with the fact that they can only offer friendship to the subject, as dictated by the circumstances and the other person's affections.

The chorus of the song repeatedly emphasizes the notion of being just friends, highlighting the painful reality that the singer must face. The subject's dreams and affections lie elsewhere, leaving the singer on the sidelines as a mere friend who is ultimately insignificant in the grand scheme of things. The acceptance of this fate, governed by destiny and the subject's indifference, adds a sense of resignation and melancholy to the singer's predicament.

The closing verses capture a bittersweet moment of playful interaction between the singer and the subject, where they pretend that their earlier confession was just a joke. The subject's parting gesture of a kiss on the soul and cheek underscores the deep emotional connection they share, even if it can only manifest as friendship. The repetition of the chorus drives home the theme of unrequited love and the inevitability of being merely a friend, echoing the singer's realization that they are ultimately insignificant in the subject's romantic life.
