Que Sera de Ti

Verónica Ávila's song 'Que Sera de Ti' is a poignant exploration of longing and the deep emotional impact of a lost love. The lyrics convey a sense of urgency and desperation as the singer seeks to reconnect with someone who once played a pivotal role in her life. The repeated question, 'Que sera de ti?' (What will become of you?), underscores the uncertainty and emotional turmoil that comes with not knowing the fate of a loved one.

The song delves into the transformative power of love, highlighting how the presence of this person changed the singer's life in profound ways. The lines 'Cambiaste sin saber toda mi vida' (You changed my whole life without knowing) and 'Motivo de una paz que ya se olvida' (Reason for a peace that is now forgotten) reflect the deep emotional bond and the subsequent void left by their absence. This emotional landscape is further enriched by the singer's admission of not knowing whether she loves the other person more than herself, indicating a complex interplay of self-identity and romantic attachment.

Ávila's plea for the return of her loved one, expressed through lines like 'Ven, que esta sed de amarte me hace bien' (Come, this thirst to love you does me good) and 'Yo quiero amanecer contigo' (I want to wake up with you), captures the essence of human vulnerability and the desire for emotional fulfillment. The song also touches on the relentless passage of time and its role in widening the gap between the two, as seen in 'El tiempo corre y nos separa' (Time runs and separates us). This adds a layer of existential reflection, making the song not just about personal loss but also about the broader human experience of love and separation.
