Inalcanzable translates to "unattainable" or "unreachable." It's a captivating word that evokes a sense of longing and desire for something just out of reach.
In this song, David Bisbal uses it to describe the woman he loves, calling her "Tú, la inalcanzable, la imposible." This highlights her mysterious and almost mythical quality, making her even more desirable and central to his world. It's a powerful word that perfectly captures the romantic tension and yearning in the lyrics.
David Bisbal sings about falling for someone he never saw coming. The title, "Quién me iba a decir" ("Who would have told me"), is the question he keeps asking himself: who could have predicted that this person would become the rain to his storm, the cure to what was wrong with him, the peace he had been missing.
He describes her as both close and out of reach: the woman he always dreamed of but never expected to actually have. Whatever happens to the world around them, none of it matters to him anymore ("qué más da" - "what does it matter") as long as she is with him.
It's a love song built on disbelief, the feeling of being caught completely off guard by someone who ends up meaning everything.
