Cómo Lo Hago

Los Rebujitos' song 'Cómo Lo Hago' delves into the depths of longing and heartache, capturing the essence of a love that has slipped away. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with the pain of separation, carrying the emotional burdens of their past relationship. The opening lines, 'Hoy te lo diré / Que me llevo tus dolores en el alma,' set the tone for the song, revealing the protagonist's internal struggle and the weight of their sorrow.

The song employs powerful metaphors to convey the tumultuous emotions experienced by the protagonist. The comparison of their feelings to the relentless crashing of waves and the birth of the wind ('Como el agua se golpea / Con las olas y nace el viento') illustrates the uncontrollable and natural force of their emotions. This imagery is further enhanced by the recurring motif of 'air' and 'waves,' symbolizing the remnants of the relationship that the protagonist clings to, such as the 'air of the waves of your hair' and 'the kisses I owe you.' These metaphors highlight the protagonist's desperate attempt to hold on to the intangible memories of their lost love.

The chorus, with its repeated question '¿Cómo lo hago?' ('How do I do it?'), underscores the protagonist's confusion and helplessness in trying to move forward. The lyrics express a deep yearning for reconciliation, as seen in lines like 'Si tu boca ya no brilla con mi boca / Si tú solo me provocas / Esperando que regrese.' The song captures the universal experience of heartache and the struggle to let go, resonating with anyone who has faced the pain of a broken relationship.

'Cómo Lo Hago' is a poignant exploration of love, loss, and the enduring hope for reunion. Los Rebujitos' emotive delivery and the evocative lyrics create a powerful narrative that speaks to the complexities of human emotions and the enduring impact of love.
