ANÁLISIS | SIGNIFICADO
In this poignant ballad by Ricardo Arjona, titled 'It Hurts to See You' in English, the songwriter expresses the pain of witnessing someone they care about fall for someone else. The lyrics paint a picture of a heartache-filled scenario where the protagonist feels sidelined, watching as the object of their affection chooses another. The bittersweet emotions of longing, jealousy, and resignation are palpable as the singer laments their unrequited love. Despite feeling left out and unseen, they continue to hold on to hope and a sliver of affection, even if it means accepting a smaller part in the other person's life. The song beautifully captures the universal experience of loving someone who may never fully reciprocate those feelings, striking a chord with anyone who has experienced the ache of unreturned love.
