Así Fue

Zayda's song 'Así Fue' is a poignant ballad that delves into the complexities of love, heartbreak, and moving on. The lyrics express the pain and difficulty of ending a relationship, not out of lack of love, but because circumstances have changed. The protagonist is speaking to a former lover, asking for forgiveness for causing pain and suffering. The repetition of 'Perdona' (forgive me) emphasizes the regret and the weight of the decision to leave.

The song's narrative reveals that the protagonist has fallen in love with someone else, despite still having feelings for the past lover. This new love is described as 'divino' (divine) and 'un buen amor' (a good love), suggesting a deep and transformative connection that has helped the protagonist to heal and forgive. The honesty with both the new partner and the former lover is highlighted, suggesting a moral struggle and the importance of integrity in the face of emotional turmoil.

The chorus 'Así fue' (that's how it was) serves as a resignation to the past and an acceptance of the present. The protagonist acknowledges that the separation was not their fault, as the former lover left without explanation. Despite the pain, the protagonist has found strength and growth through this experience. The song ends with a message of closure, urging the former lover to forget and move on, as the protagonist has done. 'Así Fue' is a testament to the resilience of the human heart and the bittersweet journey of letting go of a past love to embrace a new future.
