The song "Algo De Ti" by Joe Veras is a romantic ballad about a man experiencing a shift in his relationship with his partner. He describes how suddenly things have changed - the way she speaks to him, her demeanor, and her gaze. He misses the way she used to be, and he feels like he's a different person because of it. Despite this, he still loves her deeply and is enamored with her. The chorus emphasizes his love, saying that he fell in love, got accustomed to her, and is now adoring her, while he feels fixated on her. The lyrics showcase the rollercoaster of emotions one can experience when in love, including the fear of losing what you love most, the happiness such love brings, and the obsessiveness that can come with it.
The chorus of the song is repeated throughout, indicating the significance of the singer's feelings for his partner, regardless of everything that has changed or could still happen. The song talks about how the happiness of the poor is short-lived, a reference to the fleeting nature of love and happiness in general. The singer's fears are echoed as he hopes that his partner won't abandon him suddenly, like some people may leave this earth abruptly. The song overall is a lamentation on the impermanence of love and a tribute to the powerful impact it can have on one's life.
