Perfidia
Los Panchos Lyrics

The opening line of the song "Perfidia" by Los Panchos sets the tone for the rest of the track. The beginning lines of the song depict the singer as feeling isolated and misunderstood by those around him. He sings that "Nadie... Comprende lo que sufro yo" ("Nobody... understands the suffering that I am going through"). The singer has been brought to tears and is now unable to cry aloud, he can only express himself through his singing.

As the song progresses, the singer turns his focus to a lost love. He speaks directly to his former love, asking if he has ever ceased to adore her. He then paints a vivid picture of his heart's anguish, likening the vast and endless ocean to a mirror of his own broken heart. The singer relentlessly searches for his lost love, but she is nowhere to be found. He wonders what she is doing, where she is going, and how far she is from him. The singer is left with a deep sense of longing and despair in the absence of the one he loves.
