La Liga Del Sueño
The Melancholic Beauty of Impossible Love
La Liga Del Sueño's song "Somos" delves into the poignant and bittersweet nature of an impossible love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love that, despite its intensity and depth, is destined to remain unfulfilled. The opening lines set the tone with a sense of longing and sorrow, as the narrator reflects on a farewell kiss that left a lasting impact on their soul. This moment of parting is not just a physical separation but an emotional one, leaving the narrator's heart in a state of mourning.
The recurring theme of being an "impossible dream" highlights the unattainable nature of their love. The lovers seek solace in the night, a time when they can momentarily escape the harsh realities of the world. This metaphor of the night as a refuge underscores the transient and elusive quality of their relationship. They are like two leaves brought together by the autumn wind, only to be separated again, emphasizing the fleeting and fragile nature of their connection.
The song also explores the idea of duality in love. The lovers are described as "two beings in one," whose love is so profound that it feels like they are dying from it. This intense connection is kept secret, adding a layer of tragedy to their story. The repeated line "Somos dos gotas de llanto en una canción" (We are two drops of tears in a song) encapsulates the essence of their love—beautiful yet sorrowful, a poignant melody that lingers in the heart. The song concludes with a resigned acceptance of their fate, acknowledging that they are nothing more than this impossible dream, a fleeting moment of beauty in a world that cannot contain their love.
