Amores Cobardes

Andy & Lucas's song 'Amores Cobardes' delves into the emotional turmoil of a love that has faded over time. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who is struggling with the end of a relationship. He confides in a friend, asking them to relay his feelings to his former lover. The protagonist is seen sitting alone, crying, and reflecting on the love that once was but has now withered away. This imagery sets the tone for the song, highlighting the pain and helplessness he feels.

The chorus, or 'estribillo,' emphasizes the difficulty of moving on. The protagonist admits that he wants to forget his former lover but finds it impossible. The phrase 'amores que se lleva el aire, amores que son cobardes' (loves that the wind takes away, loves that are cowardly) suggests that some loves are fleeting and lack the courage to endure. This metaphor of the wind taking away love underscores the transient and fragile nature of their relationship.

In the second verse, the protagonist asks his friend to tell his ex-lover not to expect to see him again and to move on with her life. He admits that he lacks the courage to say these things to her face, which adds another layer to the theme of cowardice. The song captures the essence of a love that couldn't withstand the test of time and the emotional struggle of letting go. Andy & Lucas use simple yet powerful language to convey the universal experience of heartbreak and the difficulty of moving on from a love that has ended.
