Sabes

In 'Sabes,' Andrés Obregón delves into the emotional complexities of love and separation. The song's lyrics reveal a deep yearning for a loved one who is physically distant but emotionally close. Obregón's words paint a vivid picture of the pain and longing that come with being apart from someone you deeply care about. The repeated phrase 'Sabes' (You know) serves as a poignant reminder of the shared understanding and connection between the two individuals, despite the physical distance that separates them.

The song is rich with metaphors and imagery that convey the depth of the singer's emotions. For instance, the line 'Sabes que veo en tu boca más que un te amo' (You know I see more than an 'I love you' in your mouth) suggests that the singer perceives a profound and unspoken bond that goes beyond mere words. Similarly, the mention of 'huellas' (footprints) that 'no se borran' (do not erase) symbolizes the lasting impact and memories that the relationship has left behind, offering comfort and a sense of closeness even when apart.

Musically, 'Sabes' is imbued with a sense of nostalgia and melancholy, yet it also carries a hopeful undertone. The singer acknowledges the pain of separation but also finds solace in the memories and the emotional connection that remains strong. The refrain, with its gentle melody and repetitive 'tara, ra, ra, ra,' adds a soothing, almost lullaby-like quality to the song, reinforcing the idea that love and memories can bridge the gap created by distance. Obregón's heartfelt delivery and the song's intimate arrangement make 'Sabes' a touching ode to enduring love and the bittersweet nature of longing.
