Me encanta la música de esta canción, es requetebonita. Pero estoy de acuerdo con ustedes que la letra sí es muy confusa. Creo que ella ya vive, pero algo ha destruido la relación entre ellos, y que para él, ella es como si fuera muerta. Muy triste, pero la vida es así a veces, ¿no?
Yo nunca he oído de Fernando Delgadillo, pero me encanta su voz. Y Lili y Marcos, ustedes son tan divertidos! Marco, eres muy dramatico. "¿Ella está muerto?" Y Lili, "Pues sí Marco. Tienes razon!" lol!
Creo que la mujer está vivo y que ellos había un separación espectacular y que ella nunca lo quiere ver más, como si él fuera muerto.
Haha! No! Esta muerto! ^_^.
Drama queen! jajajaja
Me da gusto saber que les gusta esta canción. Mztish creo que Marco le gusta el drama...jajajaja
Fernando Delgadillo es un gran cantautor!
Aqui hay un video con la letra de la canción para karaoke!

"when i break up with them i kill them" ¡ay, la viuda negra!
make sure no one finds the bodies if you are going to make public statements like this. ;-)

me gusta la teoria que "ella" esta muerte y también me parece que tiene que ser nombrado "Roma"
"they say all roads lead to rome and its true because each night mine leads me to the hole that names you."
(aunque me occure que una tumba no es un hueco cuando es"ocupado".)
otra teoria: Quisas él sea un católico que ha perdido su fé en la iglesia de Roma )
creo que: tan terrible es el odio que ni te atreves a mostrarme tu desprecio. Tiene más sentido cuando la se formula como pregunta.
Is the hatred so terrible that you dare not even show me your distain?

i like your analysis...very interesting!!!
gracias mztish, muy amable. although that was the edited version....
the line they skipped over was "lo malo son las noches que mojan mi mano"
The worst thing are the nights that wet my hand. Does he only have one arm? playing the guitar would be a challenge? at bedtime does he put his hand out the window to see if its raining? or maybe when he falls asleep does his roommate put his hand in a bowl of warm water.
I must be honest thats not where my mind went first
but this is a family show so perhaps its best not to think about it too much.
oh, and roma is also short for romani so this could well be the equivalent of, "i recall a gypsy woman"
i think el hueco que te nombra is probably more figurative in that it is the hole in his life called roma. falling asleep with your name on my lips doesnt need to be literal either and "tus ojos" her eyes are his eyes when he closes his eyes to sleep he closes her eyes because she lives within him
