The Nostalgic Echoes of 'Eramos' by Manolo Garcia

The song 'Eramos' by Manolo Garcia is a poetic reflection on the passage of time and the loss of identity and essence that can accompany it. The lyrics evoke a sense of nostalgia and a longing for a purer, more primal state of being. Garcia uses natural imagery, such as a 'roof of leaves' and 'fresh grass,' to symbolize a time when things were untouched and unspoiled. The repetition of the word 'Eramos,' which means 'We were,' underscores the theme of reminiscing about the past.

The song's narrative seems to lament the distance from this original state, expressing uncertainty about the present ('Today I do not even know who I am') and the future ('And today I do not even know where I am going'). The mention of 'flame of love' and 'awakening skin' suggests that reconnecting with passion and sensation can restore a sense of self and direction. This idea implies that despite the changes and complexities of life, the core of one's identity can be rediscovered through love and emotional awakening.

Manolo Garcia's style often blends rock with poetic lyrics, and 'Eramos' is no exception. The song's rich imagery and metaphorical language paint a picture of a world that was once simple and elemental, contrasting it with the present complexity. The song is a call to remember and perhaps to return to the essential qualities that define us, suggesting that within the depths of our being, the essence of who we were still lingers, waiting to be rekindled.
