Olvidame Si Puedes
Jose Luis Perales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Aunque sera difícil borrar del corazón
Tantos momentos colmados de ternura
Tanta belleza, tantas noches de amor
Tantos abrazos bajo la luna llena
Tantas palabras dichas a media voz
Y olvidar que nos vimos una tarde
Que nos enamoramos una vez
Olvida tu si puedes, olvida tu si puedes
Olvida tu si puedes, inténtalo otra vez
Olvida tu si puedes, olvida tu si puedes
Olvida tu si puedes, porque yo no podre
Fue tan hermoso habernos conocido
Y dejarnos la vida derrochando el amor
Fue tan hermoso y tan irrepetible
Tanta belleza en un beso de amor
Tantos abrazos bajo la luna llena
Tantas palabras dichas a media voz
Y olvidar que nos vimos una tarde
Que nos enamoramos una vez
Olvida tu si puedes, olvida tu si puedes
Olvida tu si puedes, inténtalo otra vez
Olvida tu si puedes, olvida tu si puedes
Olvida tu si puedes, porque yo no podre
The lyrics to José Luis Perales's song "Olvidame Si Puedes" are a heart-wrenching ode to lost love. The singer is imploring his former lover to forget him if she can, acknowledging that it will be difficult to erase all the moments they shared. He reminisces about their past, describing the tenderness, beauty and the many nights spent together. He also expresses his admiration for their shared memories by mentioning their moments of passion under the full moon and the whispered words of love they spoke to one another. He then acknowledges that their love began on a day they met, and that he had fallen in love with her once. The singer then pleads with her to try to forget him, giving her the chance to move on, while acknowledging that he himself will not be able to forget her.
The song is a beautiful piece of romantic poetry, expressing the powerful emotions of love and loss that many people experience throughout their lives. It speaks to the universal experience of falling in love, and the pain that comes with losing someone who was once so important.
