The lyrics paint a vivid picture of someone who is trying to navigate the complex emotions of love, loss, and hope.

However, he is also consumed by the desire to reconnect, to hear her voice, and to rekindle the love they once shared.
The song's title, "La Estrategia" (The Strategy), reflects the protagonist's internal conflict and his attempts to devise a plan to win back his lover's affection.
