El amor Contigo

Yasmin Levy's song 'El amor Contigo' delves into the intricate and often painful nature of love. The lyrics paint a picture of a love that is fraught with difficulty and near impossibility. The opening lines, 'El amor contigo es Dificil / Es casi imposible,' set the tone for a relationship that is challenging and unfulfilling. The phrase 'Tu eres de todas / Y realmente, de nadie' suggests a lover who is emotionally unavailable, belonging to everyone and yet to no one, highlighting a sense of loneliness and unreciprocated affection.

The second stanza reveals a deep yearning for a different life, one free from the suffering caused by this unrequited love. The lines 'Si / Pudiera yo vivir / De nuevo esta vida / Sin sufrir por amarte / Prefiereria / Murir' express a poignant desire to escape the pain, even if it means choosing death over a life filled with heartache. This dramatic expression underscores the intensity of the emotional turmoil experienced by the narrator.

In the final stanza, the narrator reflects on their modest desires in the relationship. They never asked for grand gestures or deep revelations, only the simple ability to love. 'Nunca pedi que tu me ames / Que me descuvras tus secretos / Que me / Esperes impasiente / Que me deses por las noches / Que me seques lagrimas / Que me / Hagas reir / Solo pedi poder amarte' encapsulates a pure, selfless love that seeks nothing in return. This contrast between the narrator's simple wish and the complex reality of their love adds a layer of tragic beauty to the song, making it a poignant exploration of the human heart's capacity for love and suffering.
