Feel your heart race? That is exactly the vibe of Cuando Tú Me Miras. In this romantic corrido, Eslabón Armado blends his Mexican-American roots with serenade-style melodies to paint a picture of love at first sight. The singer’s heartbeat speeds up every time his sweetheart locks eyes with him, and the lyrics overflow with gratitude for the way she has brightened his life. Even though he admits he is “not perfect,” he promises to give her “el cien y más” – his all and then some.
It is a tender confession full of admiration: pearl-bright eyes, irresistible kisses, and phone calls that make his day. Beneath the sweet compliments lies a pledge of loyalty; he refuses to risk losing “una bella mujer” who makes him feel complete. In short, the song is a heartfelt thank-you note set to guitars – a celebration of finding someone who turns ordinary moments into pure magic.
