Y Sigo Preguntandome
Malu - [EMG] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Que el tiempo haga que se multiplique sentimientos
Cómo puede ser que tus recuerdos se endulcen
Con los meses,esos que llevo sin verte
Y sigo preguntándome cómo existe algo tan puro
Que no consiga verme disfrutando de una vida
Donde no estés tú porque sin ti he descubierto
Ay! Ven y escucha mi alma
La esperanza es para mí como tu nombre
Que es para mí gran parte del color de mi bandera
Y el tiempo es cruel conmigo porque quiso detener
El ciclo de agonía que pasé por nuestro amor
Y no se estiró en aquellos años de alegría
Y sigo preguntándome cómo tras nuestros momentos
No han quedado restos por tu parte de esos besos
Que te hagan renacer lo que sustenta mi alma
Y me guía en los sueños
Y es que mira no sé cómo decirte que aún te quiero
La esperanza es para mi como tu nombre
Que es para mi gran parte del color de mi bandera
Y el tiempo es cruel conmigo porque quiso detener
El ciclo de agonía que pasé por nuestro amor
Y no se estiró en aquellos años de alegría
Sé que la vida pasa y pasa y no te he vuelto a ver
Y que me alimento de un reencuentro
Que creo en mi ilusión
Pero niño tienes que entender que esto no es vida
Y el tiempo es cruel conmigo porque quiso detener
El ciclo de agonía que pasé por nuestro amor
Y no se estiró en aquellos años de alegría
Ay de alegría
In "Y Sigo Preguntándome," Malu - [EMG] reflects on the power of time, memory, and emotions, and how they have affected her relationship with someone she loves. The song opens with Malu marveling at how something so large and profound can be multiplied by feelings over time. She wonders how memories of this person have been sweetened by the passing of months since they last saw each other. Malu then reflects on how this love is so pure and all-consuming that it's hard for her to imagine enjoying life without this person. She longs for them to come back and hear her soul, to show them how much she still loves them.
As the song progresses, Malu grapples with the cruelty of time, how it has robbed them of the happiness they once shared together. She wonders why their past moments together have not left any trace, "restos," of the love they had, as if the time they spent together did not matter. She finds comfort in the hope of a future reunion, but acknowledges that she cannot keep living her life in anticipation of that. The song ends with the repetition of the line "El tiempo es cruel conmigo," ("Time is cruel to me"), which highlights the pain and longing that Malu feels.
The lyrics of "Y Sigo Preguntándome" are poetic and poignant, and they do an excellent job of conveying complex emotions through powerful imagery. Malu's voice and phrasing in the song add to its haunting and melancholy tone, making it a beautiful and moving piece of music. The song reminds us of the ways in which time can shape our memories and our relationships, and how we are forced to confront the passage of time when it separates us from the people we love.
