Toda Una Vida Lyrics in English by Leoni Torres
Hechizo translates to "spell" or "charm". It's a captivating word that evokes a sense of magic and enchantment, making it stand out from everyday vocabulary.
In the song, Leoni Torres sings, "Como un hechizo de amor en mis venas" (Like a love spell in my veins). He uses this word to express how deeply and magically he is affected by his beloved, as if her love has cast a powerful, irresistible spell over him. This poetic imagery makes the word memorable and enticing.
Leoni Torres spends this whole song making one promise, and the title tells you how big it is: "Si tú me quieres, tengo toda una vida" (if you love me, I have a whole lifetime) "pa' darte mi amor" (to give you my love). Not a night, not a season. A lifetime.
He opens by turning the compliment around: "Como tú, no hay nadie que me cuide y me quiera" (like you, there's no one who looks after me and loves me). She is the one who takes care of him, and he says so before anything else. The images stay physical rather than lofty. She is "como un hechizo de amor en mis venas" (like a love spell in my veins), and by the chorus he has stopped pleading and started daring her: "Nena, provócame, anda, acaríciame" (baby, tempt me, come on, caress me). The last stretch repeats itself, the way a bolero does when the singer has run out of new arguments and just says the best one again. "Y que muero de amor" (and that I'm dying of love) would be too much in most songs. Torres, who came up singing with Charanga Habanera before going solo, delivers it like it costs him nothing.
