De Quién Serás
Darviin
The Longing of Unrequited Love
The song "De Quién Serás" by Darviin is a poignant expression of longing and unrequited love. The lyrics convey the feelings of someone who is deeply missing their loved one, questioning where they are and why they are not present. The repeated line 'De quién serás, que nunca estás' which translates to 'Whose will you be, you're never here,' suggests a sense of abandonment and the pain of being left behind. The singer is trying to follow the footsteps of the absent lover, but feels that the distance between them only grows with each attempt.
The second verse of the song introduces a desire for closure. The singer wants to see their loved one one last time to say goodbye and move on. There is a sense of resignation in the lyrics, as the singer is ready to let go of what no longer serves them. The mention of leaving behind a song as a farewell indicates that the singer is using music as a means to express their emotions and perhaps reach out to the absent lover one last time.
The final part of the song paints a picture of what the singer wishes could happen: sharing their written thoughts, having a conversation over coffee, and simply being together. It's a bittersweet fantasy that contrasts with the reality of their situation. The song captures the essence of unfulfilled love and the struggle to come to terms with it, wrapped in a melody that resonates with anyone who has ever experienced a similar heartache.
