The Longing Dream: A Tale of Unrequited Love in 'SueñO Su Boca'
Raul's song 'SueñO Su Boca' is a poignant exploration of unrequited love and the deep yearning that accompanies it. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who is captivated by a woman he sees every day. Her elegance and the way she carries herself leave a lasting impression on him, causing him to dream about her constantly. The imagery of 'temblando las aceras' (the sidewalks trembling) as she walks by highlights the profound impact she has on him, almost as if the world itself reacts to her presence.
The chorus reveals the depth of his obsession, as he confesses that he has been dreaming of her kisses for so long that it has driven him to the brink of madness. Each night, he imagines being with her, only to wake up and face the harsh reality of her absence. This cycle of hope and despair underscores the torment of unfulfilled desires. The repetition of 'Hace tanto que sueño su boca' (I've been dreaming of her mouth for so long) emphasizes the relentless nature of his longing.
In the latter part of the song, Raul delves into the pain of separation and the hope of reconciliation. He reflects on the time that has passed since she left and how he has become a part of her forgotten past. Despite the distance and the passage of time, he clings to the hope of being reunited with her. The line 'Pero a veces el orgullo, ciega a los enamorados' (But sometimes pride blinds lovers) suggests that pride and ego may have played a role in their separation, adding a layer of complexity to their relationship. Ultimately, the song captures the essence of longing, the pain of unrequited love, and the hope that dreams can sometimes offer solace, even if only temporarily.
