Si Te Hubiera
Greeicy
The Lingering Ache of Unrequited Love
Greeicy's song 'Si Te Hubiera' delves into the complex emotions of unrequited love and the lingering pain that accompanies it. The lyrics express a deep sense of longing and regret, as the singer reflects on what could have been if the other person had reciprocated her feelings. The phrase 'Si te hubiera contagiado de lo que sentía' suggests that if she had been able to make the other person feel the same way, they would have felt immensely rich, not in a material sense, but emotionally fulfilled. This metaphor of emotional wealth highlights the depth of her feelings and the void left by their absence.
The song also explores the difficulty of moving on from someone who is no longer present in her life. Despite knowing logically that nothing will happen between them, her heart still clings to the memories and emotions associated with that person. This internal conflict is poignantly captured in the lines 'Por mi mente lo tengo claro, bien claro está / Pero cuando le pregunto al corazón.' The mind and heart are at odds, with the heart refusing to let go even when the mind understands the futility of holding on.
Greeicy's lyrics also touch on the torment of missing someone while simultaneously not wanting to see them. The lines 'Te extraño, pero no quiero verte' encapsulate this paradoxical feeling. The pain of their absence is so intense that it makes her question her luck and curse the day she met them. This emotional turmoil is a testament to the powerful impact that unrequited love can have on a person's psyche, leaving them in a state of perpetual longing and unresolved feelings.
