Quien Nos Dijo
Luciano Pereyra
Rediscovering Love: A Tale of Unfinished Business
Luciano Pereyra's song "Quien Nos Dijo" delves into the complexities of rekindled love and the lingering emotions that come with it. The lyrics tell the story of two former lovers who, after a long period of separation, find themselves face-to-face once again. The initial encounter is charged with emotion, as both characters realize that their feelings for each other have not faded. The physical reactions—shortness of breath and goosebumps—highlight the intensity of their connection, suggesting that their love is far from over.
The recurring question, "Quien nos dijo amor que lo nuestro terminó?" (Who told us, love, that our story was over?), serves as a poignant refrain throughout the song. It reflects the confusion and regret both characters feel about their past decision to part ways. The lyrics suggest that external forces or misunderstandings may have driven them apart, but their bodies and hearts never truly let go. This theme is further emphasized by the line, "Si mi cuerpo no te olvida y al mirarte quedo enfermo de pasión" (If my body doesn't forget you and I become sick with passion when I see you), illustrating the deep, physical longing that remains.
The song also touches on the idea that words are unnecessary when the connection is so strong. "No hacen falta las palabras y que hablen nuestros cuerpos por los dos" (Words are not needed, let our bodies speak for us) encapsulates this sentiment perfectly. The physical act of coming together again, stealing kisses, and undressing each other in a desperate attempt to feel, underscores the raw, unspoken bond they share. Pereyra's emotive delivery and the passionate lyrics make "Quien Nos Dijo" a powerful exploration of love that refuses to die, no matter the time or distance.
