Eres Tú
La Contrabanda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me enamorй de ti, me enamorй de ti
Y ahora eres tu la vida mia
A fuerza de contarte entre mis cosas,
Como un apunte diario a recordar
Que estаs dentro de mi, vives dentro de mi
Y ahora eres tu la vida mia
Coro: eres tu!
Sabe la playa que tiene su mar, (tu!)
Que es un romance de amor sin final (tu!)
Y yo me muero de duda al pensar
Que tu nunca me llegues a amar
Coro: eres tu!
Sabe la estrella que tiene su cielo (tu!)
Que es un enlace de amor tan profundo (tu!)
Y se que no hay en este mundo
Quiйn me libre (como tu) de mis noches de desvelo
A fuerza de mirarte cada dia, de oir tu voz, de sentir tu alegria
Me enamorй de ti, me enamorй de ti
Y ahora eres tu la vida mia
Coro: eres tu! (bis)
Coro 2: no hay nadie como tu
No hace nadie lo que me haces tu... Amor
The lyrics of La Contrabanda's song Eres Tu describe the intense love and infatuation that the singer has for someone they have been watching and listening to every day. The repetition of the phrase "a fuerza de" emphasizes the compulsion and inevitability of their love, as if it was impossible to resist falling in love with this person. The singer describes how this person has become the center of their world, the one who brings them joy and fills their life with meaning. The chorus repeats the phrase "eres tu" (it's you), affirming the subject of the song as the one and only love of the singer's life.
However, in the second verse, the tone shifts as the singer expresses doubt and fear that this love will never be reciprocated. The metaphorical connection between love and nature, specifically the beach and the stars, further amplifies the intensity of the singer's emotions. They describe the overwhelming depth of their love, and the fear of being unable to escape their longing for this person. The repetition of the phrase "no hay nadie como tu" (there's no one like you) in the second chorus highlights the uniqueness and importance of this person to the singer.
Overall, the lyrics of Eres Tu convey a strong sense of longing, infatuation, and fear of rejection. The singer's emotions are depicted with intensity and fervor that can resonate with many who have experienced strong feelings of love.
