Corazón corazón

Julio Iglesias' song 'Corazón corazón' is a heartfelt plea from a lover who is deeply entangled in the throes of love and fear of loss. The lyrics convey a sense of desperation and vulnerability, as the narrator begs his beloved not to leave him. The repeated phrase 'no me quieras matar, corazón' (don't want to kill me, heart) underscores the emotional intensity and the life-or-death stakes he feels in this relationship. This line is a powerful metaphor for the pain and devastation that losing his love would cause him.

The song delves into the complexities of love and memory. The narrator reflects on the moment he confessed his love, a moment that changed his life irrevocably. He acknowledges that he cannot live without his beloved's affection, and the thought of losing her is unbearable. The lyrics 'Es inútil dejar de quererte' (It's useless to stop loving you) and 'Ya no puedo vivir sin tu amor' (I can no longer live without your love) highlight his deep emotional dependency and the futility of trying to move on.

Iglesias also touches on themes of gratitude and recognition. He reminds his beloved of their shared past and the role he played in her life, urging her to remember 'quién te hizo mujer' (who made you a woman). This line suggests a deep bond and a sense of mutual shaping and growth within the relationship. The song's emotional depth is further amplified by Iglesias' soulful delivery, making 'Corazón corazón' a poignant exploration of love, loss, and the human heart's resilience.
