Me Hace Tanto Bien Lyrics in English by Alejandro Fernández
Desbordar literally means 'to overflow' or 'to spill over'. It's a powerful and evocative verb that paints a vivid picture of something exceeding its boundaries.
In this song, Alejandro Fernández uses it beautifully to describe an overwhelming emotional experience: "desbordar los sentimientos" (to overflow the feelings). It conveys a sense of emotions so strong they can no longer be contained, making it a memorable and poetic choice to express deep love and passion.
This song is all about that terrifying, wonderful moment when you decide to just let go and fall in love. Alejandro Fernández starts by admitting he's scared, saying things like, "Tengo miedo de perderte" (I'm afraid of losing you). He knows that falling in love means his reason could "quebrar de amor" (break from love) and he'll lose control. It's a feeling many of us know well!
But then, he completely changes his mind. He decides that trying to control love is pointless and gives in completely. He uses these beautiful nature metaphors to describe the feeling. He says, "Y yo soy / La hoja que lleva el viento" (And I am / The leaf carried by the wind), and the person he loves is the wind itself, the "aire que me levanta" (air that lifts me). In the end, he realizes that this surrender feels amazing. The whole point of the song is in the title line, "Tu amor me hace tanto bien" (Your love does me so much good).
