el breve espacio
Mario Ortiz y Su Orquesta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Todavia quedan restos de humedad
Sus olores llenan ya mi soledad
En la cama su silueta se dibuja cual promesa
De llenar el breve espacio en que no esta
Todavia yo no se si volvera
Nadie sabe al dia siguiente lo que hara
Rompe todos mis esquemas
No confieza ni una pena no me pide nada a cambio de lo que da,
Suele ser violenta y tierna
No habla de uniones eternas
Mas se entrega cual si ubiera solo un dia para amar,
No comparte una reunión mas le gusta la canción que comprometa su pensar
Todavia yo no se se quedara temo mucho a la respuesta de un jamás,




La prefiero compartida antes que vaciar mi vida
No es perfecta mas se hacerca a lo que yo simplemente soñé...

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Mario Ortiz's song El Breve Espacio convey a sense of loneliness and longing for a lost love. The singer describes the remnants of the past relationship that still linger in the air, filling his solitude with memories and scents. He can still see her silhouette in his bed, as if she promised to fill the empty space where she is not. However, he is unsure if she will ever come back, as nobody knows what the next day will bring.


The singer then goes on to describe the woman's character, which is both violent and tender, and not looking for long-term commitments. She doesn't trust easily and doesn't ask for anything in return for what she gives. She enjoys songs that touch her heart and mind, and she's not interested in parties or gatherings. The singer admits he doesn't know if she will stay, and the possibility of a rejection scares him. Yet, he prefers to share her with someone else than to empty his life, as she comes closer to what he had always dreamed of.


Overall, the song expresses a bittersweet sentiment towards a relationship that was both beautiful and painful. The singer is torn between the desire to have her back and the fear of losing her forever, but ultimately accepts her for who she is, flaws and all. The lyrics are evocative and poetic, painting a vivid picture of the singer's emotions and inner struggles.

Bodo Channel que buen tema. Respetos totales.

@Spurs19921993

El año más grande de Ernesto Sánchez como arreglista (1988), con "Lluvia", de finales de 1987, Ven, devorame otra vez" 1988, y "El breve espacio", que aunque no sonó en la radio, es a mi gusto, el mejor tema y arreglo de la producción

@Spurs19921993

Un piano bello; se escuchó como una pieza; lo que se espera de un arreglo de salsa romántica.

@sninoperez9319
