Te Acordarás De Mi
Manu Tenorio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cuando tu recuerdo es el aire en mi garganta
Y después de todo tengo que darte las gracias
Porque ahora cuando canto a mi voz le salen alas.
Te tienes que acordar de mí
Porque tu cuerpo era agua entre mis manos,
Porque tu boca era la orilla de tus labios
Te tienes que acordar de mí,
Es imposible que te hayas olvidado,
Y desde entonces, hasta ahora y mientras tanto,
Cada vez que canto, mi voz se desangra por ti.
Te tienes que acordar de mí
Porque tu cuerpo era agua entre mis manos,
Porque mi boca era la orilla de tus labios
Y solo por eso que te has de acordar de mí.
Te tienes que acordar de mí,
Es imposible que te hayas olvidado,
Y desde entonces, hasta ahora y mientras tanto,
Cada vez que canto, mi voz se desangra por ti
The lyrics of Manu Tenorio's song Te Acordarás De Mi express the heart-wrenching pain and longing felt by someone who has been left behind by a former lover. The opening lines describe how the singer's voice is like a bolero that is bleeding out, a metaphor for the emotional turmoil he is experiencing. The imagery of his ex-lover's memory being the air in his throat underscores the extent to which his pain is all-consuming.
Despite this, the singer expresses gratitude towards his ex-lover, acknowledging that the experience has given him wings to fly. The chorus emphasizes the idea that he wants to be remembered, that his former lover's body was like water in his hands and her mouth was the shore of her lips. He declares that it is impossible for her to have forgotten him, and that every time he sings, his voice bleeds out for her.
The second verse repeats these themes, with the added emphasis that the singer believes it is inevitable that his former lover will remember him, that the memories of their time together are too powerful to have disappeared. The emotional intensity of the song builds to a crescendo, as the singer insists that he must be remembered for the way his ex-lover made him feel, and how much he loved her.
