Song Meaning of “Historia de un Amor” by Giovanni
Historia de un Amor is a somber and heartbreaking tale of a love that has been lost and the heartache that comes with it. The narrator laments how the flame of their love has been extinguished and how he can no longer find solace in the thought of having them by his side. “If only I could turn back the hands of time, then I would be able to feel what I had when you were here.”
The refrain speaks of the sorrow and pain he feels in knowing his love is gone and that his dreams of them together have now faded away, haunted by only memories of the past. The ultimate contrast being that the instrumentals remain soft and romantic even as his heart sinks and he finds himself unable to move forward.
Though the song is a tragedy, the narrator still cherishes the special memory of what once was between them. “I will never forget you my love, and I will not let our time spent together be forgotten.” As the song fades into the night, the listener is left with the bittersweet memories of the love and passion the narrator and his beloved once shared.
