Yo Quiero Dibujarte

Elio Roca's 'Yo Quiero Dibujarte' is a song that delves deep into the fervent emotions of love and desire. The lyrics express a longing to capture the essence of the beloved in a way that transcends mere words. The singer feels that life slips away when not in the presence of their loved one, and when together, there's an urge to freeze time to savor the moment. However, the acknowledgment of being unable to do so leads to a declaration of intense affection.

The repeated phrase 'Yo quiero dibujarte con mis manos' (I want to draw you with my hands) and 'Yo quiero dibujarte con mi boca' (I want to draw you with my mouth) suggests a deep yearning to know the beloved intimately, to explore and experience their being in a tactile and sensual manner. The imagery of drawing with hands and mouth conveys a physical closeness and a creative act of love, as if the lover is a work of art to be cherished and adored. The heat and passion of the relationship are likened to a fire, emphasizing the intensity of their connection.

The fear of loss is also a theme in the song, with the singer admitting to being 'blind with love' and unable to even contemplate the idea of separation. This vulnerability underscores the depth of the singer's feelings, making the song a poignant ode to the all-consuming nature of love. Elio Roca's romantic ballad style, often characterized by its emotive delivery and lush arrangements, serves as the perfect backdrop for this heartfelt expression of love and desire.
