Sin Ti No Soy Nada
Rocio Jurado Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Como ese tren del que ves sólo sus ventanillas.
Eres caricia, dolor inquietud y miradas
Te quiero y te odio, me olvido y me atrapas,
Me escondo en mi gente y sin ti, sin ti no soy nada.
Abres la puerta de mi alma con una palabra
Eres mi dueño absoluto y no me lo esperaba
Te quiero y te odio, te olvido y me atrapas,
Me rindo al saber que sin ti, sin ti no soy nada.
Estribillo
Ya lo he dicho todo amigo mío
Ya no me queda nada,
Ya desnude mi cuerpo
Y con el he desnudado el alma,
Me llevaran los viento si tú,
Si tú no me abrazas
Porque la noche es fria y sin ti,
Sin ti yo no soy nada
¡Ay! ¡Ay! sin ti yo no soy nada.
Surges como un huracán que atraviesa mi vida,
Como ese tren del que ves sólo sus ventanillas.
Eres mi dueño absoluto y no me lo esperaba
Te quiero y te odio, te olvido y me atrapas,
Me rindo al saber que sin ti, sin ti no soy nada.
Estribillo
Ya lo he dicho todo amigo mío
Ya no me queda nada,
Ya desnude mi cuerpo
Y con el he desnudado el alma,
Me llevaran los viento si tú,
Si tú no me abrazas
Porque la noche es fria y sin ti,
Sin ti yo no soy nada
¡Ay! ¡Ay! sin ti yo no soy nada.
The lyrics of Rocio Jurado's song "Sin Ti No Soy Nada" express the conflicting emotions that the singer experiences in a tumultuous relationship. She describes her partner as a force of nature that disrupts her life, like a hurricane or a passing train. He brings both love and pain, causing her to both love and hate him, to forget him and be ensnared by him. Despite trying to hide within her own social circle, she realizes that without him, she is nothing. He has the power to open her up and break down her defenses with just a word or a look. He has become her absolute master, and she surrenders to the knowledge that without him, she is incomplete.
The refrain repeats the idea that without him, she has nothing. She has revealed everything about herself to him, both physically and emotionally. She fears being borne away by the winds of life if he doesn't embrace her, as the night is cold and empty without him. The song ends with a final plea for him to hold her, as she is nothing without him. Emotional turmoil, passion, dependency, and surrender to the other are the dominant themes of this song.

Chorus: I have said everything there is to say, my friend. I am left with nothing. I have bared my body, and with it, my soul. The winds will carry me away if you don't embrace me. Because the night is cold and without you, I am nothing. Oh, without you, I am nothing.
