Porque Dices Que Me Amas

Lolita de La Colina's song 'Porque Dices Que Me Amas' is a heartfelt exploration of the transformative power of love. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of how a simple declaration of love can breathe new life into someone who felt lifeless and alone. The opening lines, 'Hoy mi mar no tiene olas / Y mis manos no están solas,' suggest a sense of calm and fulfillment that comes from knowing one is loved. This newfound love alleviates feelings of envy and loneliness, as the singer no longer envies other couples because she has found her own source of happiness.

The song delves deeper into the rejuvenating effects of love, with lines like 'Hoy mi piel envejecida / Ha cobrado nueva vida.' Here, the artist uses the metaphor of aging skin gaining new life to illustrate how love can make one feel young and vibrant again. The imagery of a boat finding its port and the realization that she has not 'died' further emphasize the idea that love provides a sense of purpose and belonging.

In the chorus, Lolita de La Colina highlights the mutual nature of this love, singing 'Simplemente porque has dicho / Que me amas como yo.' This reciprocity is crucial, as it shows that the love is not one-sided but shared and equally passionate. The metaphor of giving new branches to a dried-up tree symbolizes how love can revive and nourish one's spirit. The song concludes with the beautiful imagery of someone planting 'primavera este diciembre,' signifying that love can bring warmth and renewal even in the coldest, most barren times of life.
