Así Las Cosas Por Acá

The song "Así Las Cosas Por Acá" by Luis Angel (El Flaco) is a heartfelt ballad that delves into the emotions of lingering love and regret. The lyrics express the singer's inability to move on from a past relationship, despite attempts to do so. The phrase 'No funcioné con nadie más' which translates to 'I didn't work with anyone else,' underscores the idea that the singer has been unable to form a meaningful connection with others after the end of this significant relationship.

The song's chorus, 'Te sigo amando como siempre,' which means 'I still love you as always,' reveals the depth of the singer's feelings. It's a declaration that, despite the passage of time and the separation, his love remains unchanged. This sentiment is further emphasized by his desire to communicate this directly to his former partner, rather than have them hear it from someone else. The singer's vulnerability is on full display as he admits to his mistakes, referring to them as 'Semejante estupidez,' or 'such stupidity,' and expresses understanding if forgiveness is not granted.

The recurring theme of hope is evident in the lines 'No he perdido el interés / Y mucho menos la esperanza / Que regreses otra vez,' which translate to 'I have not lost interest / And much less the hope / That you will return again.' The singer holds onto the possibility of reconciliation, indicating that the door to the past relationship is still open in his heart. The song resonates with anyone who has experienced the difficulty of letting go and the longing for a second chance at love.
