Rediscovering Love: The Healing Power of Connection
In 'me haces bien,' Josue Alaniz explores the transformative power of love and connection. The song begins with the narrator reflecting on a period of emotional numbness, where the concept of love seemed distant and unattainable. This sets the stage for a poignant journey of rediscovery, as the narrator encounters someone who reignites their capacity to feel and love. The lyrics 'Tenía un rato que ya no sentía nada' and 'Había olvidado como era esto de querer' poignantly capture this initial state of emotional desolation.
As the song progresses, the narrative shifts to the blossoming of a new relationship. The metaphor of nurturing a plant—'Si riegas algo sabes que va a florecer'—illustrates the idea that love, like a plant, requires care and attention to grow. The narrator finds solace and a sense of home in this new connection, as expressed in the lines 'No sé qué tienes que otra vez me siento en casa.' This newfound relationship brings a sense of slow, deliberate time, suggesting that meaningful connections allow us to savor moments more deeply.
The song also touches on the uncertainty of the future, acknowledging that while the days may be numbered, the present moment is what truly matters. The lyrics 'Tal vez, tal vez ya tenemos contados los días' and 'Porque no dejamos que el tiempo decida' emphasize living in the moment and letting time take its course. The recurring refrain 'Porque tú me haces bien' underscores the healing and positive impact this relationship has on the narrator, encapsulating the song's central theme of love's restorative power.
