Contigo (feat. Pablo Alborán)

The song 'Contigo' by Sebastián Yatra, featuring Pablo Alborán, is a poignant ballad that delves into the themes of regret, longing, and the pain of lost love. The lyrics express the sorrow of waking up to another day without the loved one, the difficulty of engaging in once-shared activities like playing the guitar, and the haunting presence of the person in familiar places like a café. The repetition of 'otra vez' (once again) emphasizes the cyclical nature of the singer's pain and the struggle to move on from the past.

The chorus reveals a deep yearning for the loved one to hear the singer's voice and recognize the unchanged feelings despite the separation. The singer laments the missed opportunities to express love and the realization that the relationship ended too quickly, much like the fleeting nature of life itself. The desire to return to the loved one is expressed through the repeated phrase 'Y va a volver contigo' (And will return to you), highlighting the hope and dream of rekindling the lost connection.

Sebastián Yatra's musical style often includes romantic and heartfelt lyrics, and 'Contigo' is no exception. The collaboration with Pablo Alborán, another artist known for his emotive delivery, adds depth to the song's melancholic tone. The song captures the universal experience of regret over unsaid words and the enduring hope for a second chance at love. The emotional weight of the song is carried by the artists' passionate vocals, which convey the raw emotion of the lyrics.
