Marc Anthony Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tal vez tu tenías razón
Y era inútil esconderse
O soñar, comprometerse
Tantas cosas
Tal vez tu tenías razón
Tal vez tu tenías razón
Que gritaba, que perdías
Tantas cosas
Era yo
Y tan fácil que a mi ha sido
No enredar nuestros destinos
Y dejar que los caminos
Continuaran separados
Pero tal vez yo tenía razón
Y solo había que vivir
Ay sin miedo, sin excusas
Vivir
Inventando la locura
Vivir
Como Dios habría querido
Vivir
Recordándolo al olvido
Vivir
Rescatando lo perdido
Vivir
Y perder hasta la vida
Viviendo, oh
Es cuestión de corazón
Es cuestión de corazón
Ay, de morir en el intento
De sentir cada momento
Tantas cosas
Tantas cosas
Que aunque duelan
Son la esencia de la vida
Tal vez yo tenía razón
Y solo había que vivir
Solo habría que vivir
Hay que vivir, que vivir
Solamente hay que vivir
Solo habría que vivir
Como Dios habría querido
Darnos al amor
Solo habría que vivir
Es cuestión de corazón
Entregarlo todo
Solo habría que vivir
Hay que vivir, que vivir
Te digo, nena, hay que vivir
Solo vivir
Quiero estar junto a ti
Yo no quiero sufrir
Ven y dime que sí
Solo vivir
Entregarlo todo
Solo vivir
The song "Viviendo" by Marc Anthony talks about the choices we make in life and the fear of taking risks. The lyrics suggest that perhaps the person he was with at some point in his life was right about not hiding or dreaming, but instead taking action and living life without fear or excuses. The singer acknowledges that he was the source of fear and uncertainty in the relationship and reflects on how easy it would have been to avoid entangling their destinies and to continue down their separate paths. However, the chorus reiterates that maybe he was right in believing that life is meant to be lived without fear or excuses. This means embracing the madness, cherishing the moments even if they hurt, and holding onto the essence of life itself.
The song's structure and graphics, along with the lyrics, express that life is beautiful, and you have to live it without reservations, praising freedom and acknowledging that this beautiful journey is based on love and intimacy.

No entiendo porque estoy obsesionado con esta canción? yo se que es muy linda, pero me trae un gran sentimiento al alma.
Didmasela
Me too (Yo también) and I listen to it more than 10 times everyday. I think its because the song is so romantic that it touches the heart and soul, body and mind and causes goose bumps. In addition, the song was well written, well composed and well sang. Someone please translate to Spanish.
