Corazón Pecador

In 'Corazón Pecador,' Santamarta delves into the emotional turmoil of forbidden love. The song's protagonist confesses that his heart is 'sinning' simply by looking at the object of his desire. This sets the stage for a narrative filled with longing and regret, as he feels like a 'poor guy' for wanting something he knows he shouldn't have. The use of the word 'pecando' (sinning) adds a layer of moral conflict, suggesting that his feelings are not just socially unacceptable but also morally wrong in his eyes.

The lyrics vividly describe his intense desire to touch and love this person in ways he never imagined. His soul 'feels fire' for her, indicating a burning passion that consumes him. However, this passion is met with the harsh reality that she belongs to someone else. The repeated lines 'Y deseo esa boca, Y deseo ese cuerpo' (And I desire that mouth, And I desire that body) emphasize his unfulfilled longing. The word 'lastima' (pity) punctuates his lament, underscoring the sorrow and frustration of his situation.

The song also touches on the theme of missed opportunities. He laments that he 'arrived late' and doesn't have the 'keys to open her body,' symbolizing that he missed his chance to be with her. This metaphor of keys and doors adds a poetic touch to his sense of loss and unattainable desire. Santamarta's 'Corazón Pecador' is a poignant exploration of the pain and complexity of loving someone who is out of reach, blending emotional depth with lyrical elegance.
