Que Locura Enamorarme De Ti Lyrics in English by Eddie Santiago
Enviciare comes from the verb enviciar, which means "to get someone addicted to something" or "to corrupt". It's a word packed with intensity and a hint of danger.
In this classic salsa track, the singer makes a bold promise to his forbidden love: "Te enviciare de mí" (I will get you addicted to me). It's a powerful declaration that goes beyond simple affection, perfectly capturing the song's theme of an all-consuming, obsessive desire.
Have you ever had a crush on a friend who was already with someone else? Puerto Rican salsa legend Eddie Santiago takes that feeling and turns up the heat. He starts by confessing his secret love to his friend, calling it a "locura" (madness) to have fallen for her. He can't keep it inside anymore, telling her, "Y en silencio yo te quiero / Y tu amor tiene otro dueño" (And in silence I love you / And your love has another owner). He's jealous of everything, even the wind that touches her, and feels like his love is an "amor voraz que crece como el fuego" (a voracious love that grows like fire).
But this isn't just a sad song about unrequited love. Halfway through, he stops lamenting and starts trying to convince her. He describes his dreams of them being together and then makes his move with some very bold promises. He tells her if she gives him just one chance, "Te enseñare lo que es amor / Quemare tus entrañas" (I will teach you what love is / I will burn your insides). It's a dramatic and passionate plea for her to leave her partner and choose him instead.
