Paulina Goto's song 'Te Voy a Extrañar' is a poignant exploration of loss and the enduring presence of a loved one even after they are gone. The lyrics delve into the emotional turmoil that follows the absence of someone dear, capturing the heartache and the struggle to move forward. The opening lines, 'Vencer la ausencia de tu risa / Es un reto al corazón,' set the tone for the song, highlighting the challenge of overcoming the void left by the loved one's laughter. This sentiment is further emphasized with the line, 'Nadie, nunca me explicó / Todo lo que dolería,' underscoring the unexpected depth of the pain experienced.
