and
and
I thought that with time I would forget you
I thought this pain would end but
more time but time passes and I
remember you
Just like that, perhaps you already moved on from me, the soldier
perhaps you no longer care that I'm
suffering
within the song that showed the crying
to think
of forgetting you, I have to be strong
I'm always saying it and I don't manage to
I have to forget you, I have to be strong
I'm always saying it and I can't
and
I thought that with time I would forget it
I thought this pain would end
time passes but time passes and I
remember you more and more, perhaps you are already taken from me
the soldier, perhaps you no longer care that
I'm suffering, that vibrated from the expense that
wall of crying, thinking
of forgetting you, I have to be strong
I'm always awake and I can't
that to forget you, I have to be strong
I'm always saying it and I can't
that to forget you, I have to be strong
I'm always saying it and I don't understand
I have to forget you, I have to be strong
I'm always saying it and I can't

llantocrying / weeping

Llanto translates to "crying" or "weeping". While tears are common, this word specifically refers to the act of crying itself, often implying a deep emotional release.

In the song, the lyrics mention "el llanto" (the weeping), highlighting the profound sadness and emotional pain the singer is experiencing as they struggle to forget someone. It's a poignant word that captures the raw emotion of heartbreak.

Have you ever tried really hard to get over someone, only to find yourself thinking about them even more? That's exactly what Agua Marina sings about in "Tengo que olvidarte" [I have to forget you]. The singer keeps telling themselves, "pensaba que con el tiempo me olvidaría" [I thought that with time I would forget], and that the pain would end. But instead, as time passes, they remember the person "más y más" [more and more].

It's a really relatable feeling of being stuck, knowing you should move on, but just not being able to. The singer wonders if the other person has already forgotten them, or if they just don't care about their suffering anymore. They repeat, "tengo que olvidarte, tengo que ser fuerte, siempre estoy diciendo y no puedo" [I have to forget you, I have to be strong, I'm always saying it and I can't]. It's a powerful and honest look at the struggle of letting go.
