Tengo Que Aprender Ahora

In 'Tengo Que Aprender Ahora,' Trinidad delves into the emotional turmoil of moving on from a past relationship. The song's lyrics are a raw and honest portrayal of the struggle to let go of someone who was once deeply cherished. The opening lines, 'tengo que aprender ahora a no tenerte entre los que yo quiero,' set the tone for the entire song, highlighting the painful necessity of learning to exclude a former lover from the list of cherished ones. This sentiment is further emphasized with the line, 'tengo que aprender a odiarte,' which reveals the internal conflict of trying to foster feelings of resentment to cope with abandonment.

The song transitions into a narrative of seeking solace in a new relationship. The protagonist expresses a desire to teach a new partner his preferences and habits, as seen in the lines, 'enseñarle mis costumbres, las condiciones para ser amantes.' This act of teaching is not just about sharing personal likes but also about using the new relationship as a means to heal and forget the past. The repeated emphasis on 'enseñarle que me gusta el amor a la mañana, con muchas ganas' underscores the longing for a passionate and fulfilling connection that can overshadow the pain of the previous one.

Trinidad's lyrics also touch on the lingering presence of the past lover, symbolized by the scent left behind, 'tengo que sacarme el gusto de ese perfume que tu me dejaste.' This metaphor of scent represents the deep, almost indelible mark that the past relationship has left on the protagonist. The song concludes with a hopeful yet desperate plea for the new partner to help erase the memories of the former lover, 'hasta pedirle que borre de mi alma el nombre de ella.' Through this poignant narrative, Trinidad captures the universal experience of heartbreak and the arduous journey of finding love again as a path to emotional recovery.
