Una Vez Mas
Sandra Mihanovich Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
el alma se queda sin palabras
se que en la oscuridad
mueren los sueños de la piel
di más de lo que tuve
y solo dando pude volver a comenzar
Una vez más hoy vuelvo a elegir
una vez más hoy vuelvo a estar viva
vuelvo a creer una vez más
Se que siempre puede el tiempo
llevarse el amor de tu destino
se que siempre puede el fuego
destruir el miedo de querer
di más de lo que tuve
y solo dando pude volver a comenzar
Una vez más hoy vuelvo a elegir
un corazón que me pueda presentir
una vez más hoy vuelvo a estar viva
vuelvo a creer una vez más
Si alguna mañana
no te encuentro junto a mí
tendré la fuerza de seguir
Una Vez Más by Sandra Mihanovich is a powerful song about overcoming heartbreak and choosing to love again. The lyrics speak to the emptiness that can come with loneliness and the danger of giving into fear. The singer acknowledges that in the loneliness of the night, dreams can die and the soul can be left speechless. But, through the give and take of love, she has learned that it is possible to start anew. She has given more than she had before, and in doing so, has found the strength to choose to live again.
The song is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the power of love to heal. It is a reminder that while love can be fragile and fleeting, it is also worth the risk. The singer knows that time can take away love and that fear can destroy it, but she chooses to persevere despite these challenges. Ultimately, Una Vez Más is a hopeful song, full of heart and soul, that reminds us to keep the faith and to keep on loving, no matter what obstacles we may face.
