The Heartache of Letting Go: Lasso's 'Te Veo'

Lasso's song 'Te Veo' is a poignant reflection on the struggle of moving on from a past love. The lyrics open with the artist waking from a dream where he sees the smiling face of someone he cared for, only to be jolted back to the reality that they are no longer there. This sets the tone for a song that is steeped in the pain of reminiscence and the difficulty of letting go.

The chorus of 'Te Veo' reveals the internal conflict the singer faces. Despite his promises to himself that he wouldn't fall in love or be affected by this person, he admits defeat in what he calls a 'lost war.' The metaphor of smelling like flowers is used to describe the irresistible allure of the person he loves, highlighting the natural, almost instinctive, pull he feels towards them despite his rational intentions to move on. This humanizes the experience, making it relatable to anyone who has tried and failed to resist falling for someone.

The song also touches on the public persona versus private feelings. The artist mentions how it may seem like he's lying on television and that his feelings were an illusion, suggesting a discrepancy between how he is perceived by others and what he truly feels. The repeated line 'Te veo' (I see you) followed by 'vuelvo a levantarme' (I get back up) and 'vuelvo a respirar' (I start to breathe again) implies that the mere thought of this person gives him the strength to keep going, even though he knows he must eventually wake up and face a world without them.
