estorbahinders / gets in the way

Estorba translates to "hinders" or "gets in the way." It's a vivid verb that implies something is an obstacle or an annoyance.

In the song, Alejandra Guzmán sings, "Frente al espejo me estorba la ropa" (In front of the mirror, my clothes get in the way). This line powerfully conveys her intense desire and impatience, as even her clothing is an impediment to her passion and imagination. It's a memorable and evocative word that captures the song's sensual mood.

In "TUYA," which means Yours in English, Alejandra Guzmán sings about a powerful and passionate longing for a lover who isn't physically present. The song creates a very intimate scene, with the singer lighting candles and using her vivid memories to imagine her partner is with her. She sings, "Parece que hoy no te puedo tener / Pero mi memoria te puede traer" (It seems today I can't have you / But my memory can bring you), highlighting how she uses her imagination to bridge the distance.

This intense memory sparks a deep physical desire. The lyrics become more direct as she describes being alone, thinking of her lover's mouth, and satisfying her own urges: "Improvisando aquí en la cama / Sola quitándome las ganas" (Improvising here in bed / Alone, satisfying my desires). The core of the song is the feeling of connection and belonging, as the repeated word "tuya" emphasizes. It's this thought, "Cuando me acuerdo que soy tuya" (When I remember that I am yours), that allows everything to flow naturally and powerfully.
