el breve espacio
Nicho Hinojosa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
sus olores llenan ya mi soledad,
en la cama su silueta
se dibuja cual promesa
de llenar el breve espacio
en que no está...
Todavía yo no sé si volverá,
Rompe todos mis esquemas,
no confiesa ni una pena,
no me pide nada a cambio
de lo que dá.
Suele ser violenta why tierna,
no habla de uniones eternas,
mas se entrega cual si hubiera
sólo un día para amar.
No comparte una reunión,
mas le gusta la canción
que comprometa su pensar.
Todavía no pregunté «¿te quedarás?».
Temo mucho a la respuesta de un «jamás».
La prefiero compartida
antes que vaciar mi vida,
no es perfecta
mas se acerca a lo que yo
simplemente soñé...
The lyrics of Nicho Hinojosa's song El breve espacio describe the feeling of emptiness and loneliness after a loved one has left. The remnants of their presence still linger, filling the silence and the memories. The silhouette of their body on the bed serves as a reminder of the promise of their love, a promise that now seems unfulfilled since they are no longer there. The singer is unsure if his lover will return, as no one knows what the future holds. Her unpredictable behavior and her refusal to share her emotions only add to his confusion and anxiety.
Despite the uncertainty, the singer is willing to accept her for who she is - sometimes violent, sometimes tender. She does not believe in eternal promises, but she gives herself wholly to love as if there is only one day left to live. She may not enjoy social gatherings, but she enjoys songs that challenge her thoughts. The singer admits that he has not asked her to stay, fearing that her answer may be a final goodbye. But he prefers to share her with others than to live a life without her. Although their love may not be perfect, it is close to what he had always dreamed of.
Overall, the lyrics convey the bittersweet feeling of holding on to love after it has slipped away. The singer is torn between the fear of losing his lover and the desire to appreciate their love in the present moment. The song's melancholy melody and poetic lyrics capture the emotions of a heartbroken lover.
