Se Nos Hizo Tarde

Olivia Wald's song "Se Nos Hizo Tarde" delves into the emotional aftermath of a broken relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person who has been deeply hurt by a past lover and has decided to move on. The opening lines, "Para que volviste, se ve que no entendiste," set the tone for the song, indicating that the return of the ex-lover is unwelcome and that the protagonist has no intention of rekindling the relationship. This sentiment is reinforced with the declaration, "No volveré atrás, no me dejo lástimar," emphasizing a firm resolve to avoid further pain and not to look back.

The chorus, with lines like "Ya no me vengas a pedir perdón, después de partir me el corazón," highlights the protagonist's refusal to accept apologies or any form of reconciliation. The repeated assertion, "No quiero nada de tu amor, ya no me lo creo," signifies a loss of trust and a desire to reclaim independence. The protagonist expresses a longing to return to their former self, the person they were before the relationship began, as seen in the lines, "Hoy vuelvo a ser la misma que supe ser sin ti."

The song also touches on the difficulty of moving on, acknowledging the lingering memories of the relationship. The line, "No puedo decir que no recuerdo nuestros besos," admits that the memories are still present, but the protagonist has learned to live without them. The repeated phrase, "Se nos hizo tarde," serves as a poignant reminder that the opportunity to start over has passed, and it is too late to mend what was broken. Olivia Wald's heartfelt delivery and poignant lyrics make "Se Nos Hizo Tarde" a powerful anthem of self-recovery and resilience after heartbreak.
