Te vuelve a poner frente a mi (frente a mi)
Mira lo que son las cosas del destino (destino)
Asi no te fuiste de mi (de mi)
Me dejaste naufragando a la deriba
Sin brujula y sin salbavidas
Mira lo que son las cosas del destino
A ti hoy te a undido
CHORUS
Me dejaste llorando
Me dejaste perdida
Me dejaste colgada al dolor de tu olvido
Me dejaste flotando
Con el alma en un hilo
Te llevaste el recuerdo y me dejaste el olvido
Asi como olvidarte........
Me dejaste naufragando a la deriba
Sin brujula y sin salbavidas
Mira lo que son las cosas del destino
La tabla que a mi me salvo
A ti hoy te a undido
CHORUS
Me dejaste llorando
Me dejaste perdida
Me dejaste colgada al dolor de tu olvido
Me dejaste flotando
Con el alma en un hilo
Te llevaste el recuerdo y me dejaste el olvido (x2)
Y asi como olvidarte........
The song "La Tabla" by Ninel Conde is a ballad that narrates the story of a woman who was left heartbroken by her lover. The opening lines "Mira lo que son las cosas de la vida, te vuelve a poner frente a mi" means "Look at what life has brought us, bringing you back in front of me." The woman is surprised to see her ex-lover after being left behind to drift aimlessly without any help. She uses the phrase "Mira lo que son las cosas del destino" (Look at what destiny has done) to express surprise and disappointment at the unexpected turn of events.
The chorus, "Me dejaste llorando, me dejaste perdida, me dejaste colgada al dolor de tu olvido, me dejaste flotando con el alma en un hilo, te llevaste el recuerdo y me dejaste el olvido" (You left me crying, lost, hanging on to the pain of your forgetfulness, floating with my soul on a thread, you took the memory and left me with oblivion), depicts the woman's emotions of sadness, abandonment and betrayal. She is unable to forget her former lover and is stuck in a limbo of pain and uncertainty.
Overall, the song is about heartbreak and how destiny plays a role in one's life. The woman's discovery of her ex-lover unintentionally sinking the same "tabla" or board that saved her from drowning, speaks to the power of fate and how life can turn around unexpectedly.
