“A Fugir de Ser” paints a playful yet bittersweet picture of two people who clearly like each other, but whose timing is forever off. Bárbara Tinoco turns the classic love song on its head: instead of rhyming easily with romance, the couple keeps missing the beat. They blame the season, the wind, their busy schedules
— anything to avoid admitting that they are simply afraid of letting things happen.
Throughout the lyrics we feel their dance of almost-love. One promises, “Tell me the right time and I’ll wait,” while both pretend to be too occupied to try. The result is a charming portrait of modern relationships, where desire is obvious, yet commitment stays just out of reach. Tinoco’s warm voice wraps this tug-of-war in catchy melodies, turning indecision into a story that listeners can’t help but relate to—and maybe, finally, learn to stop running from who they could be together.
