Eres Tu
Mocedades Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pensar que ayer aún me querías
Dos en la carretera y entre tú y yo
Tan sólo cinco metros de asfalto
Yo te miré, tú me miraste
Quise decirte no te marches
Dos en la carretera pensando igual
Y tú ¿quién eres tú?
Nunca te he conocido
Y yo ¿quién seré yo?
Si tú te has ido
Adiós, quiero decir
Hasta la vista
Si algún día
Nos une el viento
Van cada uno por su lado
Los corazones apagados
Dos en la carretera y entre ellos dos
Tan sólo cinco metros de asfalto
Y tú ¿quién eres tú?
Nunca te he conocido
Y yo ¿quién seré yo?
Si tú te has ido
Adiós, quiero decir
Hasta la vista
Si algún día
Nos une el viento
Y tú ¿quién eres tú?
Nunca te he conocido
Y yo ¿quién seré yo?
Si tú te has ido
Adiós, quiero decir
Hasta la vista
Si algún día
Nos une el viento
The lyrics of Mocedades's song Eres Tú describe a sense of longing and confusion that arises after a relationship has ended. The verses talk about two people who used to travel together, but are now going their separate ways. The singer ponders about how things used to be in the past, and how far apart they are now. The lines “Tú vas al sol, yo a la deriva/Pensar que ayer aún me querías” suggest a feeling of loss and regret that comes after realizing that the person they once cared for has moved on. The chorus, “Y tú ¿quién eres tú?/Nunca te he conocido/Y yo ¿quién seré yo?/Si tú te has ido”, highlights how, after a break-up, the person who once knew every aspect of their partner’s life now feels like a stranger to them. The song ends with a sense of resignation, but also with a hint that, maybe, they will meet again someday – “Si algún día/Nos une el viento”.
Overall, Eres Tú is a poignant portrayal of the emotions one goes through after a relationship ends. The image of two people travelling only a few meters apart from each other, yet feeling distant, captures the feeling of being close yet so far. The lyrics also highlight how a break-up can make one question their own identity – “Y yo ¿quién seré yo?” – and how difficult it can be to let go of the past.

Like a promise, you are, you are...
like a summer morning.
Like a smile, you are, you are [to me]
That's how, that's how, you are [that's how I perceive you]
You are like my hope, you are, you are... [to me]
like a fresh rain in my hands.
Like a strong breeze, you are, you are [to me]
That's how, that's how, you are [that's how I perceive you]
You are the water of my fountain
You are the warmth in my home
You are
You are something like, ohhhh
Like the fire in my fireplace (something like the fire from my fireplace)
You are..,
(You are something like, ohhhh)
The wheat in my bread
My love, you are something like that
Like my poem, you are, you are [to me]
Like a guitar in the night,
you are all my horizon, you are [to me]
That's how, that's how, you are [that's how I perceive you]
You are the source of my water
You are the warmth in my home
You are (You are something like, ohhhh)
Like the fire in my fireplace (something like the fire from my fireplace)
You are (You are something like, ohhhh)
The wheat of my bread (my love, you are something like that ).
You are...

Like a smile, it's you, it's you
So, so, it's you
All my hope, it's you, it's you

Like a strong breeze, it is you, it is you
So, so, it's you
[Chorus]
You are like the water of my fountain
You are the fire of my home
(It's you) Something like that, it's you
(Like the fire of my bonfire) Something like that, like the fire of my bonfire
(It's you) Something like that, it's you
(The wheat of my bread) My life, something like that, is you
[Verse 2]
Like my poem, it's you, it's you
Like a guitar in the night
All my horizon is you, is you
So, so, it's you

You are like the water of my fountain
You are the fire of my home
(It's you) Something like that, it's you
(Like the fire of my bonfire) Something like that, like the fire of my bonfire

(The wheat of my bread) My life, something like that, is you
[Outro]
(It's you) Something like that, it's you
(Like the water from my fountain) Something like that, like the water from my fountain
You are the fire of my home

Esa mujer tan bella tenia solo 27 años en esa cancion, nació en 1947. Me da nostalgia ver como se va la juventud con el pasar de los años, esa cancion la estoy escuchando hoy 1 septiembre 2022 y realmente es una cancion angelical. Esa epoca eran los años dorados por la bella musica de la época, las bellas MUJERES al natural. Gracias a todos los que vieron este comentario, saludos de la República Dominicana.

Así es nuestra juventud se nos escapa sin darnos cuenta y solamente nos queda la nostalgia y los recuerdos de los años maravillosos , la bella vida es como una película con dos protagonistas ,el de la plena juventud y el de al correr los años la vejez ,de verdad que da nostalgia al ver ese vídeo ,la cantante tan jovencita y muy bonita al natural ,y saber que hoy en dia ya es una mujer de edad con el cabello completamente blanco 🤔 ,pero lo romántico nunca envejecerá ni morirá ,🖐️🤗

I can't believe I found this song on YouTube to this day of 2024. I love it, and I have been loving it since 1992, when my teacher of Spanish language played that song as a quiz. I was in Grade 9. What a lovely song.

This song knocked me out. I was 8 years old when I first heard it. It still has such an impact. I am glad it still receives recognition.

I was 18 or 19 when I first heard this song. The year was between 1973-1975. I am now 66 years old! When I hear it, it brings back the most fabulous memories of living in Argentina.This song has always and will always give me chills! It will always be a favorite of mine!
