En Los Días Que Te Quise

Adriana Arydes' song 'En Los Días Que Te Quise' is a poignant exploration of love, loss, and the enduring power of memories. The lyrics take the listener on a journey through a past relationship, filled with moments of joy and sorrow. The song begins with a nostalgic recollection of the early days of the relationship, where the protagonist remembers singing verses for her lover's friends and the deep connection they shared. The imagery of the lover's eyes filled with eternal sadness, which he tried to hide in a cigarette, sets a melancholic tone that permeates the song.

The chorus emphasizes the intensity of their love during those days, where the world seemed to revolve solely around them. The lyrics 'Todo el mundo era tu, todo el mundo era yo' (The whole world was you, the whole world was me) highlight the all-encompassing nature of their affection. The song also touches on the pain of separation, as the protagonist reflects on who or what caused their 'luna' (moon) to shatter into pieces and led to their eventual parting. Despite the physical distance and the passage of time, the love they shared remains etched in the protagonist's heart, making it impossible to forget.

Arydes uses powerful metaphors such as 'fuego y lluvia' (fire and rain) and 'sol y luna' (sun and moon) to describe the duality and intensity of their relationship. These elements symbolize the highs and lows, the passion and the calm, that characterized their time together. The song's emotional depth is further enhanced by the recurring theme of divine guidance, as they walked 'de la mano de Dios' (hand in hand with God), suggesting a spiritual connection that transcended their earthly experiences. 'En Los Días Que Te Quise' is a beautiful testament to the enduring impact of a profound love, even when it is no longer present in one's life.
