Piensa En Mi Lyrics in English Luz Casal

Piensa En Mí is a classic bolero, reborn through Luz Casal’s haunting voice for Pedro Almodóvar’s film Tacones lejanos. From the first sigh, she slips into the role of a lover who lives on pure devotion: every heartbeat, every tear, every breath is tied to the memory of the one she adores.

The lyrics are a desperate plea: “Si tienes un hondo penar, piensa en mí”. Whenever sorrow strikes or tears threaten to fall, she wants to be the refuge that comes to mind. Her love is so absolute that life itself feels useless without the other person. In just a few lines Casal paints the intensity of passion that borders on obsession—love that teaches her to “sin,” love that makes her willing to surrender everything, even her own life, if she cannot share it. The song invites learners to feel the bittersweet mix of longing and tenderness that is at the heart of many Spanish boleros.
