**Fito Páez invites us into a secret, late–night rendezvous with his song “Corazón Clandestino.” The title itself means “Clandestine Heart,” hinting at a love that must stay hidden from the outside world. Throughout the lyric, the heart “always crashes head-on,” refusing to play it safe. The repeated setting of “la medianoche” (midnight) paints the scene as a time when rules fade, lights dim, and true feelings burst out like fireworks.
Nothing is forbidden under this roof. With that simple line Páez celebrates a space where passion makes its own laws. He vows, “If I go looking for you, consider it done,” yet quickly adds, “No matter how much you love me, nothing changes.” These two ideas pull against each other: unstoppable desire versus the sobering fact that secrecy can never grow into something public. In the end the clandestine heart remains “wrapped in flames,” glowing fiercely but destined to keep burning out of sight.
