Thomas was awarded a vocal scholarship to Boston's prestigious Berklee College of Music but opted, instead, to forego the opportunity when he was asked to tour as a lead singer for the legendary Venezuelan salsa band - La Dimension Latina.
Ender moved to Miami in 2000. There he took a series of odd jobs to support himself while continuing to chase his musical aspirations. He recorded some demos and also appeared on albums by noted Latin performers like Alejandro Sanz and Ricardo Arjona. It was during his sessions with Arjona that Ender met Brazilian producer/musician Cesar Lemos.
Lemos introduced him to Yanni and Ric Wake, when they were looking for someone who could sing in Spanish. Impressed by Ender's rich and highly emotive vocals the pair invited him to join them for their new project. "I figured, let's give this a try because this is my passion," he said. "Once I met them, I felt like I'd known them my entire life. We became fast friends."
Given the chance to work with Yanni and Wake has spurred Thomas' creativity. The result is the cross-cultural depth that now propels everything he writes and sings. "Writing is the most beautiful form of expression a musician can have," he says. "I have been offered an opportunity to say whatever I want to in musical form." "It is the passion and the drama of the music I am making with Yanni and Ric that brings out the best in me. I have so much inside of me and I just want to give it all away."
As Yanni has said, "Ender was born to sing."
Para Olvidarte
Ender Thomas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Inventa que me fuiste infiel,
Déjale saber al mundo que encontraste al hombre que no pude ser,
Castígame con tu desprecio,
Disfruta viéndome en el suelo,
Dime que en las madrugadas no me extrañas nada matame de celos.
Dime todo lo que te imagines...
Hasta dime que te enamoraste,
Para ver si así puedo olvidarte.
Para Olvidarte...
Tendrías que arrancarme el corazón,
Llevarte mis recuerdos con tu adiós...
Tal vez así podre olvidarte.
Para Olvidarte...
Tendría que vivir en otra piel,
Con sangre fría y alma de papel...
Porque tu huella es imborrable...
Y todo es tan fácil,
Pero yo...
Me niego a olvidarte...
Dime que el amor se fue,
Sin intenciones de volver...
échame toda la culpa de nuestro fracaso una y otra vez...
Dime todo lo que te imagines...
Huuuumilla me...
Hasta dime que te enamoraste,
Para ver si así puedo olvidarte.
Para Olvidarte...
Tendrías que arrancarme el corazón,
Llevarte mis recuerdos con tu adiós...
Tal vez así podre olvidarte.
Para Olvidarte...
Tendría que vivir en otra piel,
Con sangre fría y alma de papel...
Porque tu huella es imborrable...
Trato de que pase el tiempo a ver si un día me despierto y no te pienso...
No te pienso...
Es demasiado tarde para odiarte,
Te confieso que no puedo...
Para Olvidarte... (Para Olvidarte)
Tendrías que arrancarme el corazón, (corazón)
Llevarte mis recuerdos con tu adiós...(con tu adióus...)
Tal vez así podre olvidarte.
Para Olvidarte...
Tendría que vivir en otra piel, (otra piel...)
Con sangre fría y alma de papel...
Porque tu huella es imborrable.
Y no
Y todo es tan fácil,
Pero yo...
Me niego a olvidarte...
Nououou...
Me niego a olvidarte...
The lyrics to Ender Thomas's song Para Olvidarte describe a person's struggle to move on from a past relationship. The singer clearly is still in love with the person they are singing about, though they are resigned to the fact that they cannot be together. They implore their former lover to humiliate them, to make it easier to forget about them, and they plead with them to tell them that they have fallen in love with someone else, hoping that this will cause them to finally be able to forget. The refrain "Para olvidarte", which translates to "to forget you", is repeated throughout the song as an expression of the singer's desire to move on.
Despite their efforts, however, it becomes clear that the singer cannot simply forget about their former lover. They describe how they would have to "live in another skin, with cold blood and soul of paper" to truly rid themselves of their ex's memory. The song ends with the singer acknowledging that they cannot bring themselves to hate the person they were once with, and that their love seems to be a permanent part of them.
Overall, Para Olvidarte is a poignant and gut-wrenching exploration of the aftermath of a broken relationship. The lyrics convey a sense of desperation and heartbreak that is sure to resonate with anyone who has experienced the pain of lost love.
