Contigo en la distancia
Havana Social Club Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
En que pueda apartarte de mí
Ya todo parece distinto
Porque no estás junto a mí
No hay bella melodía
En que no surjas tú
Ni yo quiero escucharla
Es que te has convertido
En parte de mi alma
Ya nada me conforma
Sino estás tú también
Más allá de tus labios
Del Sol y las estrellas
Contigo en la distancia
Amada mía, estoy
The lyrics to Havana Social Club's song Contigo en la Distancia speak to the feelings of a lover who cannot bear to be apart from their beloved. The singer describes the all-consuming nature of their love, indicating that no moment of the day is complete without the presence of their lover. The singer notes that without their beloved they can see no beauty in the world - even music, which is supposedly universal, loses its luster if it is not being listened to with their partner.
The chorus of the song, which is repeated twice, underlines the depth of the singer's devotion to their loved one. The line "Es que te has convertido en parte de mi alma" indicates that their beloved has become an integral part of their being, and that they can find no contentment or satisfaction in life without their presence. The chorus also makes it clear that the singer's love endures, even when their physical distance from their partner may be great. Ultimately, the song expresses a sense of longing and yearning for the one who holds the singer's heart.
