Look how I am, woman, because of your love
You have made me a wretch without faith and without pain
Look how I am, my dear
Drunk and passionate, just for your love
You, only you
Have filled my life with mourning
Opening a wound in my heart
You, only you
Are the cause of all my tears
Of my disillusionment and despair
Only your fatal shadow, shadow of evil
Follows me wherever with obstinacy
And to try to forget you
I throw myself into drunkenness and perdition
You, only you
Have filled my life with mourning
Opening a wound in my heart
You, only you
Are the cause of all my tears
Of my disillusionment and despair

SONG MEANING

Tú Solo Tú plunges us into the classic ranchera scenery: a lonely cantina, a broken‐hearted charro, and a glass that never stays full for long. Vicente Fernández sings as if he is talking straight to the culprit of his misery, repeating that only you are responsible for the funeral‐like gloom that now surrounds his life. Every line is soaked in tequila, regret, and longing, painting a vivid picture of a man who roams the night, wounded in pride and spirit.

The lyrics reveal a cycle of pain that feels impossible to break. He blames her for the “wound” in his heart, the endless tears, and his self‐destructive dive into drunkenness. Yet, the stubborn shadow of this love follows him everywhere, refusing to fade. By the end, we understand that his despair is matched only by his passion—proof that in ranchera music, love and suffering are inseparable dance partners. The song is a heartfelt lesson in Spanish expressions of sorrow, obsession, and unshakable love.
