Así
Ricardo Fort Lyrics

ASÍ

Así, como una rosa desecha por el viento
Así como una hoja reseca por el sol
Así como se arroja de costado un papel viejo
Así mi alma tu imagen arrojó.

Así, como se marcha la noche con el día
Así como se aleja un velero hacia altamar
Así como se escapa el agua entre los dedos
Así te deje ir, sin meditar...

Más hoy, que estoy tan solo y tan cansado de llorar
Quiero saber si tú querrías regresar
Junto a mi lado para amarnos otra vez.
Tal vez, estés pensando que no quiera ya de ti
Ese calor que alguna vez yo te pedí
Y que después... abandoné, así, así...
Más hoy, que estoy tan solo y tan cansado de llorar
Quiero saber si tú querrías regresar
Junto a mi lado para amarnos otra vez.
Tal vez, estés pensando que no quiera ya de ti
Ese calor que alguna vez yo te pedí




Y que después... abandoné, así, así...
Así.

Overall Meaning

In Ricardo Fort's song "Así," the lyrics explore themes of loss, regret, and the desire for reconciliation. The song begins by comparing the singer's state of mind to various elements of nature that have been affected by external forces. The comparison to a rose destroyed by the wind and a dried leaf scorched by the sun suggests a sense of vulnerability and fragility. Additionally, the mention of a crumpled old paper being discarded symbolizes how the singer's soul has cast aside their image of the person they are addressing.


The second verse continues with the theme of departure and separation. The night leaving with the day and a sailboat drifting out to sea convey a similar message of things or people moving away. The metaphor of water slipping through fingers represents the singer's realization that they let go of this person without truly considering the consequences.


The chorus reflects the singer's current emotional state, expressing loneliness and fatigue from crying. However, it also reveals their desire for the person to return and start over. They wonder if this person would consider coming back and being by their side to love each other once again. The following lines acknowledge that the person might be skeptical, thinking that the singer no longer wants the warmth and affection they once asked for, but then abandoned. The repetition of "así" at the end signifies the resignation and acceptance of the situation.


Overall, "Así" portrays the singer's introspection and longing for a second chance with a lost love. It highlights their realization of their own mistakes and the hope for reconciliation.
