700 Días Lyrics in English by Joss Favela
Aferrado comes from the verb aferrarse, meaning to cling to, hold on tightly, or stubbornly stick to something. It's a strong verb that conveys a sense of desperation or deep attachment.
In "700 Días," the singer uses aferrado to express how he has desperately clung to the memory of his past love: "Si no me hubiera aferrado a tu recuerdo" (If I hadn't clung to your memory). This word beautifully captures the lingering pain and inability to let go of a cherished past, making it a poignant and memorable choice.
Have you ever held onto a memory to keep from feeling sad? In "700 Días," Joss Favela sings about a love that ended almost two years ago. He says it's been 700 días (700 days), and now he and his ex are like "two strangers who once walked hand in hand."
To cope with the pain, the singer clings to beautiful, specific memories of their time together, like a night spent under the stars. He admits that thinking of her with someone else can make him cry, but he chooses to focus on the good times. He sings, "your memory always makes me smile," showing how even when a relationship is over, the happy moments can still bring comfort.
