Razones de Amor

Farid Ortiz's song 'Razones de Amor' delves into the intense emotions and irrational behaviors that love can provoke. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a man who is utterly consumed by his feelings for a woman. He acknowledges that people might think he's crazy for being so infatuated, but he believes that his emotions are justified. The song opens with the protagonist describing how even the gentle breeze turns into a hurricane when he sees her, symbolizing the overwhelming power of his love.

The chorus emphasizes the idea that love can drive a person to madness. Ortiz sings about forgetting everything, even how to get home, when he sees her playful and coquettish demeanor. This highlights the disorienting and all-consuming nature of his affection. The repeated phrase 'razones de amor' (reasons of love) underscores that these intense feelings are valid and real, even if they seem irrational to others. The protagonist finds himself lost in her eyes, convinced that the love he sees there is worth any amount of suffering.

In the latter part of the song, Ortiz describes a poignant moment where he plays his best song on the guitar for her. Her emotional response, opening her window and crying, signifies a deep connection and mutual understanding. This moment reinforces the idea that love, despite its madness, is a powerful and transformative force. The song captures the essence of being so deeply in love that it feels like losing one's mind, yet finding solace in the shared emotions and experiences that make it all worthwhile.
