Contigo

Yolandita Monge's song 'Contigo' is a passionate ode to the transformative power of love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of an intense and all-consuming relationship. The opening lines, 'Adicta a mi boca tu boca tus manos cabalgandome,' immediately set the tone for a deeply physical and emotional connection. The use of words like 'adicta' (addicted) and 'cabalgandome' (riding me) suggests a relationship that is both intoxicating and overwhelming. This is further emphasized by the imagery of eyes 'desnudandome' (undressing me) and the absence of any 'disfraz' (disguise), indicating a raw and honest intimacy.

The song continues to explore the various facets of this relationship, from the joy of shared moments ('charlamos, reimos, sonamos') to the comfort and security found in each other's arms ('tus brazos me abrazan con ganas'). The phrase 'son horas de una tempestad' (they are hours of a storm) captures the tumultuous yet exhilarating nature of their love. The repeated declaration of 'te amo, te siento, te tomo' (I love you, I feel you, I take you) underscores the depth of her feelings and the sense of possession and belonging that comes with it.

As the song progresses, it delves into the transformative impact of this love. Lines like 'contigo he vuelto a sentir' (with you, I've felt again) and 'tu logras de mi una nueva mujer' (you make me a new woman) highlight how this relationship has rekindled her emotions and reshaped her identity. The recurring theme of 'contigo' (with you) serves as a powerful reminder of the central role this person plays in her life, making her feel alive and cherished. The song concludes with a sense of complete surrender and devotion, encapsulated in the line 'contigo yo apago mi ser' (with you, I extinguish my being), signifying the ultimate merging of two souls into one.
