Pero Vas A Extrañarme
Isabel Pantoja Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Si lo has pensado y esta vez vas a dejarme
Nada puedo hacer son cosas del querer
Tender que vivir sin ti y acostumbrarme
Si con mi amor yo ya no puedo retenerte
Si en el camino ya no vas a acompañarme
Nada puedo hacer son cosas del querer
Puede que seas feliz viviendo en otros brazos
Puede que en otro amor intentes olvidarme
Pero vas a extrañarme, pero vas a extrañarme
Tu sabes como y cuando, tu lo sabes
Se que pondrás distancia entre tu amor y el mío
Se que al pensar en mi tu evitaras nombrarme
Pero vas a extrañarme, pero vas a extrañarme
Poquito o mucho se que vas a extrañarme
Si no hay nada que decirnos y es muy tarde
Si no te queda ni un minuto para amarme
Nada puedo hacer son cosas del querer
Tender que vivir sin ti y acostumbrarme.
The lyrics to Isabel Pantoja's song "Pero Vas A Extrañarme" speak about a difficult breakup and the acceptance that the person leaving has made the decision to go. The singer is resigned to the fact that there is nothing she can do to change their mind, and acknowledges that it is simply a part of love. She must learn to live without them and move on without looking back. The song also touches on the idea that the person leaving may try to forget about her, but the reality is that they will miss her, even if it is just a little bit.
The first verse establishes the premise that the person has decided to leave the singer's life. The repetition of "nada puedo hacer" (there's nothing I can do) emphasizes the singer's powerlessness in the situation. The second verse further emphasizes the idea that the singer has accepted that the person is leaving permanently and that there is no way to change their mind. In the chorus, the singer predicts that the person leaving will eventually miss her, despite their attempt to forget about her. The final verse acknowledges that it is too late to do anything to save the relationship and that the singer must learn to live without the person she loves.
