Todos Estos Años

In 'Todos Estos Años,' Amaia delves into the bittersweet emotions of parting and the desire to hold onto cherished memories. The song opens with the poignant lines, 'Ya me voy, ¿qué es lo que voy a hacer? Me da miedo separarme de ti,' which translates to 'I'm leaving, what am I going to do? I'm scared to be apart from you.' This sets the tone for a narrative filled with longing and the fear of separation. The plea, 'Por favor, no te olvides de mí,' or 'Please, don't forget me,' underscores the deep emotional connection and the anxiety of being forgotten by a loved one.

The recurring desire to 'imprimir todas tus fotos' and 'imprimir todos estos años'—'print all your photos' and 'print all these years'—serves as a metaphor for the need to preserve memories. This act of 'printing' symbolizes an attempt to make transient moments permanent, to hold onto the essence of a relationship that is about to change. The repetition of this desire throughout the song emphasizes the importance of these memories and the fear of losing them.

Amaia also touches on broken promises and unfulfilled plans with the lines, 'Promesas que ya se rompieron, el recuerdo de un plan que nunca viviremos,' meaning 'Promises that are already broken, the memory of a plan we will never live.' This reflects the inevitable changes and disappointments that come with time and distance. The song concludes with a heartfelt wish to 'imprimir hasta lo imposible'—'print even the impossible'—highlighting the desperation to keep the loved one close, even if only in memory. The final line, 'Y que estés aquí,' or 'And that you are here,' encapsulates the ultimate longing for presence and connection, despite the physical separation.
