Que Lloro (feat. Juanse Laverde)

Sebastián Yatra's song 'Que Lloro,' featuring Juanse Laverde, delves deep into the emotional turmoil of unrequited love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person grappling with the realization that their feelings are not reciprocated. The opening lines set the tone, with the protagonist asking their love interest to stay for a moment but not to look at them, as they cannot bear the intensity of their gaze. This moment of vulnerability is a recurring theme throughout the song, highlighting the internal struggle of wanting to express feelings but being paralyzed by fear and pain.

The chorus reveals the depth of the protagonist's loneliness and sorrow. They confess that they have never felt as alone as they did the previous day when they finally understood that they never truly had the person they love, nor did they lose them. This paradoxical realization is a poignant commentary on the nature of unrequited love—how one can feel a profound connection to someone who may not even be aware of their feelings. The lyrics also touch on the fleeting and fragile nature of love, comparing it to a fire that can burn brightly but will wither if forced.

As the song progresses, the protagonist comes to terms with the fact that the person they love is not meant for them. The repeated lines 'Que lloro por ti, que lloro sin ti' (I cry for you, I cry without you) emphasize the inescapable pain of loving someone who does not love you back. The song's emotional climax is reached when the protagonist acknowledges that their love is unrequited and that they must let go, even though it causes them immense sorrow. 'Que Lloro' is a heartfelt exploration of the complexities of love and the pain of accepting that some relationships are not meant to be.
