Afectos Personales
Eros Ramazzotti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cuando te busco tú me respondes siempre
y no me preguntas, porque tú me conoces,
sabes ya que necesito tu complicidad
Aveces huir de esta realidad,
Eres el ala que aveces me falta,
Con un amigo como tú yo estoy seguro que
Solos no, no estaremos solos nunca más,
Si nos rodean los afectos personales
descubriremos que maravillosa es la amistad porque
nos ata pero sin usar las cadenas,
Nos une siempe más, y más
Alma tan dulce, esta eres tu querida amiga,
Aunque aveces tú sabes ser mordaz
y picarme tanto como una ortiga
Pero me gusta, y es porque,
yo puedo hablarte abiertamente de mi,
Confiarte secretos que yo a nadie conté
y así no estar solos y explorar esta vida sin temer
Solos no, no estaremos solos nunca más,
Si nos rodean los afectos personales
descubriremos que maravillosa es la amistad porque
nos ata pero sin usar las cadenas,
Nos une siempe más
Y no es posible, no, la vida sin amigos
Sabes bien, maravillosa es la amistad porque
nos ata pero sin usar las cadenas,
Y unidos nos mantiene, nos unirá siempre más,
hasta el final
Y no es posible, no, la vida sin amigos
Y no es posible, no...
The lyrics of Eros Ramazzotti's song "Afectos Personales" express the importance and value of friendship. Ramazzotti acknowledges that the world is beautiful with a friend like the one he is singing about. This friend is someone who is always there for him, without questioning why he needs them or what he wants from them. This person knows him so well that they anticipate his needs and provide him with the support and complicity he requires.
Ramazzotti recognizes that sometimes it is necessary to escape from reality, and this friend is the one who takes him there. They are united by their "afectos personales," their shared love and connection. This connection liberates them rather than ties them down, and they are never alone because they have each other.
The singer emphasizes that this friend is someone he can confide in, share his secrets with, and explore life without fear. This trustworthiness is what binds them together in friendship. The lyrics remind us that life is not possible without friends, and the bond we share with our friends ties us to them in a meaningful way that unites us always.
