The lyrics to Rubby Perez's song "Tonto Corazón" (Stupid Heart) tell the story of a man who is struggling to move on from a past relationship. He acknowledges that the relationship has ended, but his heart still beats for his former partner. He tries to tell his heart to stop holding on, but it resists and he is unable to control it. He pleads for help because he feels he can no longer understand or control his heart's desires.
The lyrics illustrate the difficulty of letting go of past love and how the heart can often lead us to places that our minds may not agree with. The repetition of the phrase "te necesita mi corazón" (my heart needs you) emphasizes the strong hold that love can have on a person, even after a relationship has ended. The song is a heartfelt plea for help in moving on from a love that just won't let go.
Overall, "Tonto Corazón" paints a vivid picture of the struggle to overcome the powerful emotions that come with heartbreak. The singer is trapped in a cycle of longing and denial, unable to move on from a relationship that has already ended. The song captures the universal experience of heartbreak and the way in which we can become slaves to our own emotions.
