Longing and Love in '25 Noches' by MYA and Abraham Mateo
In '25 Noches,' MYA and Abraham Mateo delve into the emotional turmoil of separation and the longing for a loved one. The song captures the essence of missing someone deeply, as the lyrics recount the 25 nights spent apart. The opening lines set the tone, emphasizing the difficulty of being away from a significant other and how time becomes an adversary in their relationship. The mention of printed photos and a lingering perfume in the luggage evokes a sense of nostalgia and the tangible remnants of their last moments together.
The chorus expresses a fervent desire to reunite, with the singers yearning to be close to their partner's lips and to express their feelings through song. This longing is palpable, as they admit to feeling incomplete without their loved one. The repetition of the phrase 'quiero estar cerquita de tu boca cuando todo acabe' (I want to be close to your mouth when it's all over) underscores the intensity of their desire to be reunited, regardless of the passage of time.

This highlights the depth of their emotional connection and the void left by their absence. The song's emotional resonance is amplified by its relatable themes of love, longing, and the struggle to endure time apart from a loved one.
