Entre Sobras y Sobras Me Faltas (feat. Antonio Orozco)
Sebastián Yatra
The Bittersweet Symphony of Lost Love
Sebastián Yatra's song "Entre Sobras y Sobras Me Faltas," featuring Antonio Orozco, is a poignant exploration of love lost and the lingering regrets that follow. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a relationship that fell short of its potential, filled with missed opportunities and unfulfilled moments. The song's title, which translates to "Between Leftovers and Leftovers, I Miss You," encapsulates the essence of longing for what once was, even if it was imperfect.
The song begins by listing the simple, everyday moments that the couple missed out on—nights in flannel pajamas, lazy mornings, and spontaneous trips. These mundane yet intimate experiences are contrasted with the emotional turmoil that ensued, symbolized by "four shots" and "twenty daggers" that the heart endured. This juxtaposition highlights the complexity of relationships, where small, seemingly insignificant moments can hold immense emotional weight.
Yatra and Orozco delve into the emotional aftermath of the breakup, expressing how the heart often defies logic and reason. The repeated phrase "entre sobras y sobras me faltas" underscores the paradox of missing even the flawed aspects of a past love. The song suggests that despite the pain and the numerous times they said "no," the remnants of the relationship still hold a significant place in their hearts. This emotional depth is further amplified by the soulful delivery of both artists, making the song a heartfelt ode to the bittersweet nature of love and loss.
