Y Sigo Preguntándome

Malú's song 'Y Sigo Preguntándome' delves deep into the complexities of love and longing. The lyrics are a poignant exploration of how love can grow and evolve over time, even in the absence of the loved one. The singer reflects on the paradox of how memories can become sweeter with time, despite the pain of separation. This introspection is evident in lines like 'como puede ser que tus recuerdos se endulcen con los meses,' which translates to 'how can it be that your memories become sweeter with the months.' The song captures the essence of a love that remains pure and untainted, even when the person is no longer present.

The chorus, or 'estribillo,' emphasizes the significance of hope and the cruel passage of time. Malú compares hope to the name of her beloved, suggesting that it is an integral part of her identity and existence. The lyrics 'La esperanza es para mí como tu nombre' highlight how hope and love are intertwined, providing a sense of purpose and color to her life. However, the passage of time is depicted as a relentless force that prolongs her agony, making it difficult to move on from the joyous years they once shared.

In the latter part of the song, Malú questions why the moments they shared haven't left a lasting impact on her beloved. She expresses her frustration and longing, wondering why the kisses and memories that sustain her soul haven't rekindled the same feelings in him. The song concludes with a realization that life continues to pass by, and she is left clinging to memories and illusions. The repeated chorus underscores the enduring nature of her love and the hope that somehow, someday, things might change.
