The single, "I Could Fall In Love", was kept from reaching the top spot on the chart by "Tú Sólo Tú", but with this feat, Selena became the second performer ever to have singles in the top two spots of the Hot Latin Tracks chart in the same week (the first being Ana Gabriel).
On the Billboard Latin Regional Mexican Airplay chart, the single debuted and peaked at number one, spending nine weeks at the top.
Tú Sólo Tú
Selena Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Borracha y apasionada, nomás por tu amor
Mira como ando mi bien
Muy dada a la borrachera y a la perdición
Tú, solo tú
Has llenado de luto mi vida
Abriendo una herida en mi corazón
Eres causa de todo mi llanto
De mi desencanto y desesperación
Mira como ando mi bien por tu querer
Solo tu sombra fatal, sombra del mal
Me sigue por donde quiera con obstinación
Y por quererte olvidar
Me tiro a la borrachera y a la perdición
Tú, solo tú
Has llenado de luto mi vida
Abriendo una herida en mi corazón
Tú, tú, solo tú
Eres causa de todo mi llanto
De mi desencanto y desesperación
The lyrics to Selena's song Tu Solo Tu paint a vivid picture of a woman who is struggling to cope with the pain and heartbreak caused by a past lover. The singer is portrayed as being deeply in love with this person, to the point where she is consumed by her emotions and turns to alcohol as a means of coping. She is described as being "drunk and passionate" solely because of her love for this person. The repetition of "Mira como ando mi bien por tu querer" ("Look how I am, my love, because of your love") reinforces the idea that her entire existence revolves around this one person.
Furthermore, the lyrics highlight the emotional turmoil that the singer is grappling with. She describes being "filled with mourning" and having an "open wound" in her heart as a result of this person's actions. Her love for them is the only thing that causes her to weep, and is the source of her disappointment and desperation.
As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges the overwhelming influence that this person continues to have over her life. She refers to them as a "fatal shadow, a shadow of evil" that follows her relentlessly no matter where she goes. She confirms that she turns to alcohol and recklessness to try and forget about them, but the pain and heartbreak never seem to disappear.
In summary, the lyrics of Tu Solo Tu describe a woman who is deeply in love with a person who has caused her immense pain and suffering. She is consumed by her emotions, turning to alcohol and recklessness to try and cope with her unrequited love. However, her deep love for this person continues to haunt her, causing her to grapple with feelings of disappointment and desperation.
