Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
un carta cierto dia
carta que hasta tus manos
no llegara
En ella yo te rogaba
en ella yo te pedia
que vuelvas pronto
Pero ya ves
esa herida que dejaste
fue lo que me impido
que lo sepas tu
Que aun llora mi corazon
y a pesar de tu traicion
te quiero ingrata
te quiero todavia (bis)
La carta la guardare
como un recuerdo
si depronto vuelves
y ya no te quiero
Entonces la rompere
en mil pedazos
porque
con eso borro todo lo pasado (bis)
...
La carta la guardare
como un recuerdo
si depronto vuelves
y ya, ya no te quiera
Entonces la rompere
en mil pedazos
porque
con eso borro todo lo pasado (bis)
The lyrics to Noe Morales's song LA CARTA describe a man who once wrote a letter to his love, but never had the courage to deliver it. In the letter, he pleads for her to return to him, begging for her love and promising to forgive her for whatever betrayal may have occurred. However, he never actually gives the letter to her. Instead, he holds onto it as a token of their past love and as a reminder of the pain he still feels in his heart.
Despite the hurt and betrayal he has experienced, the man still loves his former partner deeply. He acknowledges the wound she left behind and the difficulty he has faced in moving on, but he cannot help but still want her in his life. The letter becomes a symbol of his unrequited love and his longing for a second chance with the person he once cherished.
Ultimately, the man decides that if his former love returns and he no longer wants her, he will destroy the letter in order to erase their past and move forward with his life. However, until then, the letter serves as a bittersweet memento of a love once lost.
