Prisionero Del Recuerdo
Pedro Infante Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
las rejas de la prisión
no pude olvidarla nunca
porque vivo prisionero
en la cárcel de su amor.
Es por eso que aunque quiera
no te puedo ya olvidar
las cadenas de tus labios
y por ti aprendí a llorar.
Es muy triste mi destino
prisionero del recuerdo
sufriendo me desespero
porque inútilmente quiero
la prisión de tu amor
destrozar
In Pedro Infante's song "Prisionero Del Recuerdo," the lyrics speak of a love that has trapped the singer in a prison of memories. The song describes how the singer is unable to forget the one who has put him in this prison of love. The lyrics use the metaphor of a bird ("Pajarillo") that has felt the bars of the prison, but is unable to escape. The singer compares himself to this bird, who feels trapped in the prison of love, unable to forget the woman who has put him there. He has learned the power of her lips, and how they have caused him to cry.
The singer's fate is a sad one, as he is a "prisoner of memories," suffering and desperate, wanting to destroy the prison of love that he is trapped in, but unable to do so. The lyrics suggest that the singer has tried to move on, but to no avail, as the chains of his love remain strong. The song is a poignant reflection of the power of memory and the hold that love can have over us.

It goes without saying! No hay necesidad de decirlo porque se sabe. Y los envidiosos tambien lo saben. Esos quisieran que sus cantantuchos cantasen como el!
