From walking so much through life
Son of my heart
The years are weighing on me
My horse got tired
Maybe the moment is drawing near
That I'll have to say goodbye to you
When I'm no longer with you
The one who kissed your cheeks
The one who sometimes hugged you
And sometimes scolded you
Remember that he was your father
The man that loved you most
If one day you remember the old man
That worried about you
If you ever wanted a kiss from him
And you can't find me here anymore
Ask your mother for one
Of the many that I gave her
Young son of mine, if you want a kiss
Or a hug from your dad, ask your mama for it
Your mama has plenty, of the ones I gave her
Watch where you walk
So your foot doesn't slip
Try to follow my steps
Where I walked firmly
And avoid hitting the stones
That I stumbled on
When you miss your father
That went to heaven with God
And you want to hug him
And show him your love
The kisses you give your child
I receive them up there
If one day you remember the old man
That worried about you
If you ever wanted a kiss from him
And you can't find me here anymore
Ask your mother for one
Of the many that I gave her

SONG MEANING

Grab your sombrero and tissues

El Hombre Que Más Te Amó is a tender norteño ballad where Mexican legend Lalo Mora slips into the boots of a loving father who feels time catching up with him. Speaking directly to his son, he reminisces about shared hugs, playful scoldings, and horse-back days gone by. As the years weigh on him, he gently prepares his child for the inevitable goodbye, making sure the boy knows that no one will ever love him more than his dad.

In this heartfelt farewell, the father leaves two priceless gifts: advice and affection. He urges his son to watch his step, avoid the same mistakes, and follow the sturdy footprints he once carved. And because love never really leaves, he offers a sweet workaround: every kiss the son plants on his own child will soar up to heaven where Dad will feel it too. Until then, any time the boy longs for one of those warm paternal hugs, he can borrow one from Mom—she’s still carrying countless kisses the old man once gave her. It’s a moving reminder that family love is circular, surviving miles, mistakes, and even mortality.
