Llegaste Justo a Tiempo

“Llegaste Justo a Tiempo” by Lenny Salcedo is a heartfelt ballad that delves into the themes of despair, loneliness, and the transformative power of love. The song begins with the imagery of sadness approaching the window of the singer's heart, symbolizing a period of deep emotional turmoil.

The turning point in the song occurs with the arrival of a significant other, who brings light and hope into the singer's life. This person appears just when everything seems to be falling apart, providing solace and companionship in moments of solitude. The repeated phrase “Llegaste justo a tiempo” (You arrived just in time) emphasizes the timely intervention of this love, which rescues the singer from the brink of emotional collapse.
