Como Hago Para Olvidarte

Makano's song 'Como Hago Para Olvidarte' is a poignant expression of the pain and confusion that comes with unrequited love. The lyrics tell the story of someone who has fallen deeply in love, only to find that their feelings are not reciprocated. The artist reflects on the unexpected nature of this love, emphasizing how quickly and intensely he became enamored with someone he barely knew. The angelic gaze and the way of kissing of the other person led him to build hopes and dreams that are now causing him distress.

The chorus, 'Dime como hago amor para olvidarte,' which translates to 'Tell me how do I do, my love, to forget you,' captures the central dilemma of the song. The singer is tormented by the presence of this person in his soul and mind, unable to let go despite the pain. The song delves into the disparity between the two individuals' feelings; while the singer gave his all, emotionally, the other person was merely playing with his feelings. This betrayal is compounded by the fact that he opened his heart and soul to someone who did not value his love.

The song concludes with a sense of resignation and a painful decision. The singer acknowledges that he may have to suffer, but he resolves that this will be the last time he allows himself to love so deeply. The repetition of the inability to erase the memory of the loved one from his heart underscores the depth of his emotional turmoil. Makano's style, often characterized by romantic and heartfelt lyrics set to reggaeton and Latin rhythms, allows the listener to feel the raw emotion behind the words.
