Tu norte soy yo

The song 'Tu norte soy yo' by Fabian Corrales is a poignant portrayal of unrequited love and the deep longing for a connection that seems just out of reach. The lyrics express the pain and frustration of loving someone who sees you only as a friend, and the hope that one day they will realize that you are their true north, their guiding star, and the love they've been searching for.

The opening lines set the tone for the song, revealing that the singer has been carrying the burden of his feelings for three months, finding it difficult to even be in the presence of the object of his affection without being able to express his love. The use of metaphors like 'me vuelves cenizas' (you turn me to ashes) and 'eres la única luz' (you are the only light) illustrates the intensity of his emotions, painting a picture of someone who feels destroyed by the indifference of their beloved, yet sees them as their only salvation from the darkness of their current state.

The chorus of the song encapsulates the central theme of hope against all odds. The singer imagines a world where he is the 'norte' (north) for his love, the one who can change her life for the better, just as the once ridiculed idea that the Earth is round eventually became accepted truth. This comparison suggests that he believes his love is a truth that will one day be recognized and embraced. The song is a blend of despair and optimism, capturing the complex emotions that come with loving someone who may never love you back.
