In “Tu Sabes Que,” Gerardo Coronel sings to someone he loves deeply, while admitting that he does not always say it clearly. He wonders whether the arguments between them happen because he needs to express his feelings more often. Even when other people are around, his thoughts return to this one person: “sólo por ti sabes que tu mirada no la cambio por ninguna” [“only for you, you know I would not trade your gaze for anyone else”]. The phrase “los pleitos” means arguments or quarrels, so the song mixes devotion with the small tension that can grow when affection is left unsaid.
The chorus is sweet and very direct. He says, “yo no vivo sin ti” [“I cannot live without you”], then compares the person’s eyes with the moon, saying they are even more beautiful. When this person speaks to him lovingly, “siento que me derrito” [“I feel myself melting”]. That is a playful, familiar Spanish expression for becoming completely tender or overwhelmed by affection. By the end, he makes his choice plain: his heart and his attention belong to this person alone. The repeated “tú sabes que” [“you know that”] sounds like a loving reminder, as if he is saying, “You already know how much you mean to me, but I still need to tell you.”
