Rekindling Lost Love in 'Para Volver a Comenzar'
The song 'Para Volver a Comenzar' by Voz Veis is a poignant ballad that delves into the themes of love, regret, and the desire to rekindle a past relationship. The lyrics tell the story of someone reflecting on a lost love, acknowledging their own cowardice in the face of the relationship's end, and expressing a deep yearning to try again and rebuild what was once broken.
The opening lines set the scene of a departure, with the protagonist's partner leaving amidst a mix of doubts and a fear that memories might reignite old feelings. This departure is not one of anger or bitterness, but rather one tinged with sadness and a sense of what might have been. The singer admits to being a coward and now wishes to make amends, suggesting that it's better to attempt reconciliation late than never. The metaphor of 'changing the entire world for both of us' signifies the willingness to do whatever it takes to restore their love.
The chorus repeats the phrase 'tu eres la niña de mis ojos' (you are the apple of my eye), emphasizing the deep affection and importance the other person holds. The broken dreams mentioned are not beyond repair, as the singer believes they can piece them back together. The references to dancing among clouds to Chopin's tunes and the power of the partner's touch to work miracles add a layer of romantic idealism to the song. The repeated plea to 'start over' captures the essence of the song: a heartfelt wish to return to a time of love and happiness, and to fix what was once lost.
